If he had a lightened flywheel he might be able to stay right behind you.

I duno man, i meen i know a blaster is different than what me and all my friends have, but a good friend has a 97 YZ125 and that thing will not keep up with any of our quads. Plenty of low end power for a 2 stroke but when it comes to drag racin the bike gets smoked.

Built right it can compete, but it all depends on how well it's designed.

yep, but the 240 kit itself doesn't really get you a whole lot more h.p., mainly just an increase in torque.

Well, I personaly think the blaster would get it on take off, mid-range, the blaster would be struggling, by six gear on the blaster I think it would have a steady gain on the yz. . .my .02

Also, how much was the 240 kit????? I plan on buying a keep blaster in the extremely near future and racing it, first thing I would do is buy the kit, heard so many good things.

haha. the YZ125 will definatly win, by alot. Those things SCREEM. It might be a better comparison between the blaster and the YZ85. Dont underestimate dirtbikes. They have a big Power to Weight ratio. Plus, the dirtbike engines are allways tuned more aggresivly.. i say dirtbike by about 5-6 lenths. Drag him and tell us how it goes.

It wouldn't be a race. The YZ will kill the Blaster.

To put it in perspective, a YZ125 will run with a YFZ450 stock for stock.
