gonna race my friend this weekend. he has a predator 500 i have a stock 400ex.

i know racing is 90% driver 10% atv but we are both real good at driving. i havnt heard anything about predators being fast either. just heavy. but they have more power for sure

so who will win?

it will be about 700ft on asphalt.
what gear do u guys think is the best to start off in?

pred have alot more power than 400ex especially if urs is stock i dragged a stock pred and i had a slip on power core IV and k'n and we were dead even or one of us would win by a nose.. and if i were u i'd start of in 2nd... try not to wheelie!

I'm sorry, but if yall are even in the skills dept, the pred will win by a long shot.

just before u guys race turn his gas of when he is not looking ha. then just hold it wide open and he will be doing the same and he will choke and wont have a clue why:confused: then you wil win lol

thats about the only way you'll beat a pred with a stock ex. and for drag racing, i'd say its a lot more than 10% machine.

That is the only way you are going to win. Ha Ha Preds are alot faster than the 400 unfortunately. Good Luck hope turning the gas off works I will have to try it someday. Steve

Predators are pretty quick for a heavy, ill handling POS.
