This is my experience as well.

Stockrappy, do a little more research before you make comments that are going to embarass yourself. You're talking about a 2 stroke versus a 4 stroke. A good rule of thumb to see how equal the 2 are is double the displacement of the 2 stroke and you will have the equivilant of a 4 stroke. In other words, a 350 2 stroke is equal to a 700 4 stroke. Now, put that up against a 660 Raptor and you see it's a lot closer than you would think. That's why you can run a 250 4 stroke in the 125 class. All things equal, the Banshee will always beat the Raptor out of the hole but in the end the Raptor will outrun the Shee.

I only run in sand, and in my experience, the Banshee rules the dunes...I have rode several raptors and banshees, mod and stock(only sand), and i have yet to see a raptor beat a banshee...my 2 cents worth.

raced a piped & jetted banshee with a 14 yo rider that got the holeshot on me every time - nevertheless, by the time I hit 3rd I was 2-4 lengths ahead - everytime.
