Who cares, it all depends on traction, that is the problem with the banshee and the raptor. I dont know about the predator, but I have owned a raptor, I currently have two banshees and a ds, as well as a couple minis for the kids.

The banshee cant get traction, so it could lose. The raptor can get too much traction, so it could lose.

If traction is not an issue the banshee will usually win. There are many variables. Put a few mods into both and the banshee really shines. I would guess the predator would have a hard time keeping up with a banshee.

Two strokes in general are much faster then fours, but that is beginning to change as guys push the envelope with the four strokes.

I would put my money on the shee

Stated perfectly and true as hell, the Banshee is faster than the raptor but not by much, and a lot depends on the rider on the machine. How fast you can hit the throttle and grab gears, knowing when to shift at the "correct" times helps in winning races as well.

On pavement a predator would win IF THEY ARE STOCK. My cousin has a predator and he was outran by like half a quad length by a piped jetted and new filtered banshee. Since it was modified like it was i figure a predator will win between the two STOCK
