Ahh, i see. I think i'm about 45mins-1hr away from dyersburg. I've only been up that way once, and i was just passing through to get to KY. I'd be interested to know how you do though. I'm getting my Raptor april 2nd so i'm definately anxious to see how it does against the 450. Have someone video tape it too [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Well, one of my buddies has a banshee that has a bunch of work done to it, and his friend just got a yfz450 a few months ago. Unfortunately his friend wrecked his banshee this weekend. The only damage is the upper control arm is bent though, so hopefully he'll have it fixed soon.

Edit: What kind of track is that in Dyersburg? Is it a dirt/mx track or a drag strip? The Memphis Motorsports Park won't let you race quads for some reason, so we're looking for places to go.

I own both a piped and jetted Raptor and piped and jetted YFZ. The YFZ will murder the Raptor climbing big sand dunes which is what we do here, and in a drag race the YFZ also wins but the farther you go the closer the Raptor gets.

Off topic but,,,,,,,,,,

The Fox is gone now, sold it and it got wrecked, makes me sick. Just painted the Cobra and put chrome Bullit wheels on it, turned out great. Would like another Fox in a coupe for a hot rod.
