RAPTOR DRAG RACING
#1
THIS WEEKENED I AM GOING TO RACE MY FIRST BANSHEE, AND NEED SOME ADVICE. MY RAPTOR IS SLIGHTLY MODIFIED ( AIR INTAKE SILENCER REMOVED, SPARK ARRESTOR GONE, REJETTED.) MY BUDDIES BANSHEE IS STOCK EXCEPT WITH FMF FATTIE PIPES. IT'S ALSO A 2001 MODEL. SHOULD I PUT MY 12 TOOTH SPROCKET ON OR LEAVE THE 13? SHOULD I TAKE OFF IN 1ST. OR 2ND.?

If dragging in sand, definately go with the 12 tooth front sprocket. Practice getting a good start. It just makes racing tougher when having to catch someone and then pass them. Also, why not have a bud time you through a comparable area with different gearing, starting line techniques, short shifting, etc.., to see what gets you from point a to point b quicker beforehand.

Beg for a head start. (LOL) Although the bashee will have to be in tune to beat you.
I advocate a larger front sproket for both bikes. People do not believe me. I run a 15 on my "well tuned" banshee (very important) and I smoke most. Have fun, wish I was there. Where are you going? I just may be there.

I should be pretty close. My raptor can take stock banshees, and very close with slightly modified ones. What makes a big differences are the riders. I'm new and a big guy, when my smaller friend rides my bike (he has years of exp.) He can take a lot more people. We should start a AZ Raptor club here. I don't know if anyone else is intrested, but me and my friend are going to try racing the Whiplash race. First on is in Parker, end of Jan.
