haha id like to see ANY 250r keep up with a modded raptor. ive seea 365R get its *** handed to it by a stock zilla, and id like to see a stock zilla keep up with a 770 raptor. and 400ex's if you think those are better than a raptor, then you should just stop riding quads period

I have raced a banshee in 500ft....Yes the banshee is faster of the line but by 300ft im passing him....and it was on the road and i im about 130 and he is about 150 pounds. we had the same mods as each other.he is putting the 420 long rod kit in his banshee and im putting the 730 craycraft motor in my raptor. so we will see who is faster after we both do these mod to are quads.

4 strokes are nice and all but the 2 stroke era will always rule over the new 4 stroke era.
