Thats right I said Polaris! This Scrambler is fast, It beat's everything! It's built really built and all unnessary weight removered! We were at the Sand Dunes sunday and it beat me every race by at least 5 quad lenghts I think the only thing that beat it was a CR500 what can I do to my Banshee to put an end to this without going Bankrupt?
My mod are below
Thank

Was it a 2-stroke or a 4-stroke??

I have ridden a built-up Scramber 2x4 400cc 2-stroke. It had a full Hot Seat kit. It had something like an 8" extended swing arm. Other thatn that it looked normal except for ring-ding-ding-ding exhaust sound. It was a rocket!! No shifting.........just nail it!!

You should give Trinity racing a call and see what they can do for you. There were a few Banshee's there, I call them Alchoholic Banshee's, that were extremly fast!

Tell me about the Scrambler though.

That Scrambler sounds insane! I know Trinity has a 420 for a resonably low price that should put that polaris to sleep, I believe its like $1,300.00 or close to there anyways. < thats if you send the motor in though.

Yup, I had a mildly built Polaris 400 and that thing was pretty fast...It was no where near the caliber that some of these guys have out there. Despite what people say that 400 2 stroke engine has great potential. Then combine it with some chassis mods (lightening mostly) and you've got a rocket.

Also watch out cause there are guys with built Scrammy 4x4's...They put them in 4 wheel peel and rocket off the line.

As for mods for your Banshee...Is he beating you on top end as well?

It sounds like you guys need to establish a finish line.
