Ok my brother has a raptor and I used to race it but now I have me and ex. Anyways we drag raced them yesterday and I could stay in front until he hit about 3rd gear and he would pull up beside of me. Then when he hit 4th he would start walkin off and leaving me. By the end of the drag I was almost 5th gear pegged and he was just now hitting 5th and he was about 4 quad lenghts ahead of me. You'll see what my ex has on the signature. His raptor has white brothers E series slip on, K&N filter, stage 1 jet kit. The point I am trying to make here is he keeps running his mouth saying that there is no way a 400ex can take a raptor in a drag race even if the ex is fully modded and the raptor is stock. Some of you that have kick *** ex's that have out run raptors please tell him with lots of mods it can be done.

Tell your brother to pass the pipe and quit hoggin all the crack..:rolleyes: A modded 400ex will run with and can outrun piped raptors,,he can think what he wants but he's wrong. I've seen 416ex absolutely blow the doors off piped raptors with equal riders,,,I beleive a 400ex beat all other 4 strokes in the 4 stroke world drag racing race they had out west last fall.. Also a raptor is geared higher than a 400ex so it's got alot more top end,,that's why you beat him out of the hole and was equal up till 3rd gear..

I know something that can absolutly blow the doors off Alky's 400EX,and its also sittin in his garage,hehe (i hope you know what it is)



Also your brother is a BSer, cause a RAPTURD will lose to a 400ex. Cause I know for a fact, a stock 400ex will beat a Raptor when the Raptor runs outta gas. Unless they can push pretty fast.

sparks 465ex placed 2nd in 4 stroke wars and I think was pulling 15 quad lengths against other heavily modified raptors, and ds's.
