lol.. Well if the Warrior is not big enough I guess you need to see if they have a Jeep class in your area! Seriously, the only thing bigger in a sport quad woud be the DS650. Outside of that, I think the Warrior would be big enough and with the longer wheelbase would handle the open stuff well and yet I find it pretty easy to get thru the tight woods also.
Of course you'd need to find out if there's a stock class unless you plan to do some serious modifications; but that would hold true with most any quad .

The warrior fits the bill for scrambles as long as you are in it for fun. If you want to be competitive the 250R's and 400EX is a better way to go. If you feel to cramped on the warrior another option is the Polaris scrambler's. they are a little bit longer, wider, taller and heavier and slightly faster. But definitely more comfortable. They cant jump as well as the warrior but big air is not what hare-scrambles are about......endurance! But if your serious about being competitive stick with the other 2 bikes. Test ride them and get a feel for them. then decide.

I raced a harescramble with my warrior, yes it can be done! It was my first and only race, so far. I showed up a bit too late, missed the start, followed the wrong arrows and wound up in the parking lot. (ops) After the third lap, I did start to see a dust trail, so I wes gaining on someone. Thain wiped on an insain part of the track, Could not controll the quad arms were too tired.
