My last Banshee 4.87 @ 63 mph at Bonne Terre, MO. no wheelie bar. no extended swingarm. Only non-stock items (besides engine components) were 21x12x10 Padla brats and a DuraBlue lowering block in the rear.

Suzukiz400girl22,

Bonne Terre:

From Festus take 67 south. It is the Bonne Terre exit with the Dairy Queen. After exiting, turn left (east) and immediately after the 67 North on-ramp, you'll need to hang another left. Drive straight back and follow the sandy road. Can't miss it.

Daren

P.S. We ride at St. Joe every weekend we can. Also, PowerJunkie and I will be racing at Bonne Terre this year. He will surely be there more often than I will.

5.23 at 61mph with a 1.91 60ft time. Crappy little 8 paddle sand tires. Another good point to state would be whether or not the bike has extended swingarm or wheelie bar. Mine was stock swingarm no wheelie bar.

I wanted to start a thread for posting 300' times.

6.24 here w/ pipe

6.24 at 56mph w/ pipe and K&n, stk swingarm, 20" 10 paddle extremes, no wheelie bar

Wow, these times all seem pretty fast. There is a well built quadzilla w/ a drag pipe running at my local track and the best he seems to manage is 5.4 sec. How are the sand conditions where you race? Do you use pro lights on a tree like us, or a flag man or staged lights? There are 600-1000cc snomobile engined banshees running 3.9 at absolute best at my track. Track record is 3.2 or something by a top fuel sand dragster.

R has only been on the track once, it went a 4.2 on its first pass

You'll pay a lot for a Ti chassis. Im not at liberty to say how much though.

The tracks we run at are ASDA events. We use portatree pro lights. You guys have west michigan over there. Thats a fast track and i know of many banshee's that run in the 3's
