well, it looks like you have a pretty decent blaster. since the blaster and banshee are both two strokes then you kinda know what your getting yourself into. the banshee is like a blaster, just alot smoother riding, much better handling, and a helluvalot faster and a helluvalot funner. for trails its not that bad until you get to some tight trails, or muddy ones then its not good unless it is set up for it(i.e. larger rear tires for better groundclearence). Also it will overheat it you keep it to slow for to long, its made to haul ***. for a track its great, exspecially a home track where you can make the track to fit your machine.
i love my banshee and would choose it over probably any other quad.
and i LOVE the soft seat and smooth ride, SO DO GIRLS!

If you ride tight trails or make the trake tight your blaster may do better than the banshee. The banshee needs alot of space to get it wound up. Not putting down banshees, they rule the dunes and desert. A 250r might be a good choice there kinda in between a blaster and banshee, you can find them cheap because everyone are going to four stroke. My 250r does really well on trails. i ride it at Chadwick , Mo if your familliar with it.
