well there is this one kid i know and he has a raptor and i sometimes ride with him.

well he wanted to drag me. so i said ok. and we drag. well i didn't get a good start off. because i have only had about 45mins on the 450r. and he got a head of me a lil. but i caught right up to him. i pasted him with no problem. but shouldn't the raptor beat me. i not beat him. or is the kid just not good. and he has had his raptor for like almost 2 years. and he all ways rides it.

and another thing. should the raptor do willies pretty easy in 2 gear if your moving a lil fast. because for some reason. i think there is something wroung with the 4 wheeler or it is just him.

and my brother beat him and he has his baffle out, a k&n air filter, and a brand new stage to hot cam we just put in. the raptor has the baffle taken out and thats all. and my brother still beat him. and my brother pulled off the line first and kept on pulling away from me on his 400ex

so guys can you help

but shouldn't the raptor beat the 400ex cause my brother has stock gearing on his and only a stage 2 hot cam, k&n air filter, and baffle is out of stock pipe.

so what now guys

My dad has a well built 416 that can beat raptors. The first time I raced a raptor, i was on my dads 416, I was expecting to get stomped. But I beat him, he wasnt too happy when I told him it was a stock 400ex. Later I told him it was built:D .
