You guys should have switched riders on and determined that right there on the spot. Why the caps all the time bruteforce?

Its about the overall package.

Banshee: fast in a staight line, 14 year old tech
700: can have monster power, not as nimble as a 400/450
400: performance can equal a 450 with $$$
450: good usable power, handles well
With equal riders the 450 fits best on a mx track.

WE SHOULD OF I DIDN'T THINK OF THAT LOL I AM GONNA SEE IF I CAN DO THAT NEXT TIME AN I RIGHT WITH THE CAPS BECAUSE I LIKE IT BETTER THEN THE SMALL LETTER FOR SOME REASON LOL THANKS FOR TELLING ME THAT :)

MY SON AN THE BANSHEE WAS RACING IN A STRAIGHT LINE

he should be happy, but I wouldn't start putting drag bars on that trx or anything.  Was it in sand? soft or packed?  tires?  a lot of variables to the reason of the outcome. BUT CONGRATS, EITHER WAY.

My trx is stock and I have taken a 700r it depends on the take off but it catches up that is for sure a shee I never tried most shee I come across are so supd up they are sheeeeeeeee's but 400/700 I have done it to but like I said 700 depends on the length. My buddy has a 700 supd up and I race a 450r in our group and he just can not take losing he got so mad I told him U TELL ME WHEN TO STOP lol

NA HE WONT HE WANTS TO START MX SOON BY THE SUMMER O YEA AN IT WAS ON CONCRETE

WORD

WELL HE RACED THE 2 BANSHEE BOTH WAS STOCK HE STOCK TO AN THE KFX HAD HEADER AN FMF MUFFLER WITH A JET KIT AN THE RAPTOR HAD COMPUTER PISTONS HEADER CT MUFFLER JET KIT AN NEW VALVES BUT YEA THANKS GUYS

I raced a shee with full trinity motor and exaust on my trx 450 and had a bike link till 3rd gear then he blew by me like i was sitting still. stock shee's are alot slower.

OO  ALRIGHT THANKS

Lots of variables in drag racing to just say bike A is faster than bike B.
 If you are racing 1/8 mile on asphalt then the more powerful bike will win.
  ATV drag racing is generally done on dirt and raced for 300ft.

 A win is a win, tell him good job.

Dude that "concrete" road out at 5A is covered in sand, so that explains why a big 3 ++ raptor would lose, he didn't get sh*t for traction.. Stock banshee's are rather sluggish but they wake up A LOT when a little work is done, and the kfx400, I hope your son beat that. I have a pipped, jetted and pro-flo intake (big 3) raptor 660, I have raced two of my good buddies Trx450's with wins both time on my part. One was an '05 with LRD exhaust, jetted and filtered and I smoked him by about 4-5 lengths on tarmac. The second TRX I raced was an '06 electric start model with yoshi full exhaust, jets and filter and I was about 2 1/2 - 3 lengths on him by the finish in the dirt... How light is your son? That 700 should have raped your TRX but hey good for your son that he beat him. I hope he was wearing a helmet, and I know people really hate it when there are people racing up and down the main entrance road so be careful out there. BTW I weigh 235 and both the Trx's I raced had 160 (#1) and 150(#2) pound riders.

Caps mean you are yelling. Also I think all caps are very annoying and hard to read.

Are we a little upset?

he raced on pavement with out sand it was on the real road they started at the gas station an ended by the entrance so yea the raptor had way more traction then my son he was spinning tiers until he got to 3rd then he flew by the raptor like nothing an the same thing with the shee an the kfx he smoked it an he ways 145 an he was wearing all his gear lol he smoked another raptor 700 today to but yea thanks for the info

hey thanks he said thanks for telling him good job but yea thanks guys for the info on it

yea

I saw this place coming back from ONF and I got off but could not see it because a guy got hit by car on a 4x4 I got off and had to get right back on so it happens and not to sport only guys so be careful

thanks man u should really ride there its fun

Bruteforce750, take this as constructive criticism, don't just blow it off and when something terrible happens you'll be like, oh sh*t. Like JohnF said too, drag-racing on the road there is what gets the cops out there and this is the closest place for me to go and ride. Myself and many others would be upset if it was closed down because of careless riders... Hmmmm, Holeylands ring a bell..?

i now u guys always trying to start something so w/e i now cops will come that's y i said yea so if u got something bad to say don't say because u guys think you own every body on this forum

Banshee is broke or rider is scared. (a banshee can run 90+mph with a few mods)
Call it a good day for the kid. There will always be someone faster tomarrow. :)

lol i know man that's why i was wonder but he beat both an he gave 1 of them a 1 lenght to

You're really going to resort to common stereotypes? Come on, im not trying to be out of line here just stating the obvious, yet easily avoidable on your part.

oo ok i see thanks

holeylands was not closed due to careless riders at least that is SFWMD stand it was to the destruction of the land  ;) and mabye some money on the hush hush

thanks gato
