Whyzedtwofiveoh Posted February 17, 2010 Report Posted February 17, 2010 Okay so i know this person who just bought an Outlander 800R. He wants to race me on my banshee. My banshee has an K'N filter and some porting done to it. 23 inch tires and 14/42 gearing. It is neck and neck with my dads YZ250 off the line and takes him on top end easy. Im going to have studs in my tires and the outlander will have none, but will be racing in 4 wheel drive. Not really sure how far the race is going to be, but its on a lake maybe 500 feet. So do i have a pretty good change at winning or am i going to get owned? Quote

Drewski Posted February 18, 2010 Report Posted February 18, 2010 Man, those outlanders and renegades are FAST! For how big and heavy they are, they move. I'm guessing it's going to be close as long as you hook up well. Just think, It's 4 wheel drive and an 800. I ran with one side by side but never dragged him from a stop. At that time I think he would have killed my shee. Give it a shot and let us know. Don't let us down! Quote
tecateman Posted February 18, 2010 Report Posted February 18, 2010 dude your racing on ice with studs and hes not running studs.4wd or not i dont see how you can lose. Quote

Whyzedtwofiveoh Posted February 18, 2010 Author Report Posted February 18, 2010 Yeah, i hope theres not to much snow on the lake though, its not a clear drag strip or anything, theres going to be a fair bit of snow on it to , i should be able to take him i think plus i have brand new chain and sprockets to put on Quote

esterelbanshee Posted February 22, 2010 Report Posted February 22, 2010 If you race on bare ice he wont have a chance. If theres a decent amount of hard packed snow, you may have traction issues and a tough time reeling him in in only 500 feet Quote
87sheerips Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 Vs. stock banshee you are toast on a good surface Quote
Whyzedtwofiveoh Posted February 23, 2010 Author Report Posted February 23, 2010 Vs. stock banshee you are toast on a good surface Well its not exactly stock, just stock pipes, its really surprising a mechanic used to own it and he screwed around with it alot, and it works great. Pulls on my Dads YZ250 and takes him on top end really easy. Im only around 2 bike lengths behind him at all time until 5th Its got some intake and exhaust porting and a shaved head plus its bored out .10 I think. It just has stock pipes and im working on buying some Quote
papa_smurf49319 Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 check the for sale section, theres alot of cheap pipes on there all the time. Just make sure you buy from someone reptuable on the site. Cody Quote
Ieat4strokes Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 Post back with results, them 800rs are quick! Quote
bbcmudtruck Posted February 24, 2010 Report Posted February 24, 2010 I agree, on dry ground that outlander will own you. My buddy has a thundercat 1000 and he destroys built 450s in a 300ft dirt drag! Quote
Hilarious Posted February 25, 2010 Report Posted February 25, 2010 has this race went down yet? i had a good running 700raptor and my outlander 800r would run with it all day. and my raptor would smoke a piped banshee. if your friend with the outlander can launch it without looping it, he should be right there with your banshee. dont miss a shift either, all your friend has to do is mash the gas and he's gone.
