I thought CT's secret to success was not running any rings, something about gaining HP through a loss of friction.BR>
sorry just for my clarification, Frank is marbelous right?

Now thats funny.

I would hope a 727 big bore was pushing a lot more than that. I am around fifty with a std bore piston and cam.

Damn what more could you expect on gas from a 727? I dont think you know how fast a 70hp bike is

isn't sparks getting 80

Posted by: SANDMAN430

didn't want to hurt your feeling on the 50 anyways.

Posted by: SANDMAN430

i don't think a lot of guys do

Posted by: SANDMAN430

it's kind of fun to ride a 4 stoke thumper and to run with or beat a strong runner (banshee) doesn't mean a thing, it's just how you look at the challenge. run run a dune ready ds and can drag with several fast machines, it's just for fun, no big deal it's getting kind of fun the 2 stroke guys come over and want to talk about the performance, it fun to meet people that way. hey mario i have my 90 pound pilot but he doesn't want to ride the bus what gives, think if i change the plastic to black or red he would change his mindhey did you find some light shocks.

Posted by: SANDMAN430

no pismo for me i run the oregon dunes. plan a trip to sand mt. in sept a bunch of 4 strokes go to race and have fun, isn't that close for you guys.

Posted by: SANDMAN430

well theres a thought 300 exrider19, maybe will meet at florence someday

CT OWNS!!!

Posted by: DaBeechMan

no through CT's extensive analysis an excessive ring gap increases blow-by which drops the massive amount of horsepower to a dismal 64hp. Any of you fools out there that dont run CT jugs and head work should just give up. Like annihilator said, dont waste your fuel

Posted by: DaBeechMan

400 hours without any failures? yeesh. That would be a month of 24/7 riding. Pretty impressive.



Posted by: OutOfControl

Damn, I guess I better just put my lil shee to bed when you guys show up. Momma always told me " You might get hurt if you play with the big boys"

Posted by: OutOfControl

Well Slower, If you really want that wish to come true, just make a phone call. Mad Racing , Craycraft and Curtis Sparks all have them running with the big dogs. It only takes money!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by: taftraptor

Hey Mario,
Put the brakes back on that stink bug, and detune it a little, then come to pismo and run with madracing. Also what's a ctracer? Don't worry, we can always take the fence out!

Keith

Posted by: 250R4LIFE

Were going to try & make it this Saturday to Pismo. Mario should try & make it. Hint! Hint.! I know it's a long drive though.

Posted by: madracing

how many horses is consider fast for a raptor. i have around 50rwh. wanta race?

Posted by: madracing

there you are, annihilater. i cant make it this weekend my girl has races and it will be a busy day at the store and i need to be there.i just finished Frank's last night and want to take it out this weekend,but its a long haul to dumont for a day.when i make that way or if you make it this way let me know. i heard yours is very fast.my wife wants to go to vegas in a couple of weeks and will try and save frank a trip i'm sure we can all meet in dumont. frank wants to see his bike run. get my # from frank we can set something up

for those of you that know me i was just kidding. I'm in the 70's.the sparks raptor is in the 70's also. the owner of the black 727 is a close friend of mine.


Posted by: madracing

whats up Drag. can you make it sunday to pismo. i'm finished with that 800cc stroker raptor. if your bike is really in the 100's than this will be the show down. i might even bring my wifes bike but its only in the 70's

Posted by: madracing

hey sandman were you at pismo a couple weeks ago? do you have a 720 with a drag axle? if so do you remember the fast blue raptor?

Posted by: madracing



Posted by: madracing

well ctracingraptor a 680 is a big bore. what dyno do the use? its not the hp its the hp to the ground that counts.
if its really 68-70 hp then lets race i'll show you what 77rwh on a superflow looks like

thunder are you coming tomarrow?

Posted by: madracing

ct you must not have one of these 68 to 70 hp raptors because you dont mention what carbs you are running and if you have stock carbs with a stage 1 cam and they are getting 70hp everyone esle should close their doors and let CT build'em all

Posted by: madracing

their kit with pipe and cam they said a whooping 49.2 horse,and just think i seen one of sparks make 62hp.we should call ct and tell them to take the parking brake off when they make their dyno runs

Posted by: madracing

ward660r, yes

Posted by: madracing

if you have an issue use a tissue. guess what most shops bore for the same price and the piston is the same price, you could of had a 690 and i dont care if they used a cam it still wouldn't make 10 more ponies.
tell you what if you ever see me at the beach come by and i'll help you out on dailing in your bike to get all you can get out of it. ebay is a good place to find good deals for less. i have to admit i was on a fixed income and still got around 60 ponies out of a 690.
we all like to have a little fun, dont hate us

Posted by: madracing

honda guy you might need to recheck that.

Posted by: ANNIHILATER

Madracing- Can you bring them raptors to Dumont this weekend???. It should be very smooth and the right hand side of the hill is long enough to see all that HP shine. My DS is ready for some serious drags. Besides, Franks bike should show good torque on a decent hill also. Are you the one fixing the stroker?


I want to race you. Win or lose I need some good competition.

Posted by: ANNIHILATER

I knew the #s were more than 50 hp. When franks bike was running alky or gas it showed decent #s on this very concervative dyno down here. But In the real world his bike would not run right, though I did not look @ his power curve closely. I figured it was the cam timing or something major was off, but im no mech so I really dont know. He said you may have fixed it. I will wait till you guys come down here, I wish I could make it to Pismo, but there is really not that much room to open up the bike without skidding to a stop into the fence + the 450 miles one way from here. We will have a feild day at Dumont. Even if it is in a few weeks we can still do some night drags and early morning and evening drags. Heck maybe another cold front will come in.

BTW- my bike is not THAT fast, I just happen to race people that are a little slower.lol

Posted by: ANNIHILATER

MAAAN!!!!!! you guys have me beat already!!!! I can only lay down a little above 65 hp and 55+ ft lb torque. (on a car dyno) A stock ds lays down 32 hp on this PARTICULAR dyno. Piped and jetted yfz puts down 34 hp on this dyno. 70 is a great #. The dyno I use is not very niceBR>
I still want to race though. I even interviewed a 115lb pilot the other day. Hope he can hold on @ the hill. But, I still pilot my own ride @ 220 lbs.

I guess we will see how they run soon enough @ Dumont. Ive made a few changes since ive ran anyone. I still run gas though. So it will be motor to motor. hopefully near the same weight riders. But its still all in good fun.

Sorry bud, but Im not trying to keep up w/ the "big dogg banshees" I like running other 4 strokes. I already had a alum frame banshee that put out near 100hp and thought I was cool for a minute too. Wasnt THAT fun to "ME". I was doing 68+ up comp hill when I realized anyone can get a drag banshee to run fast as long as you have the money, patients, and a good mech. It was a little fun for a while, but I prefer thumpers.

BTW- Ive dumped over 35k in my DS w/ different motor combos and such(on just one of my bikes), I think I could have built a fast drag banshee for that amount eehh???

Some of you guys think just cause a "drag banshee" can do 80+ up a hill your the man, well Im the type of guy who gets a laugh out of beating a 420 alky banshee on my DS 4-joke. Compare apples to apples.

We are not trying to run w/ the fastest of drag banshees IE 450-650+cc...


Dont let your B@lls swell up just cause you have a drag banshee. I am not bothered if a 90hp drag banshee can beat me up the hill, Im in reality.


Posted by: ANNIHILATER

OHH, LMAO- I personally dont like rails either or I would probably have one, sooo how is that contadictory??? It still makes me sick to spend the amount i have on my DS, its not money waisted to meee. Im not rich anyways, Bill gates is though.

ANYWAYS-Listen hot dog stand, I dont ware your panties, first off. Besides it looks like you are takeing a dump in the bla bla bla pic I did look. LOL
You would probably need alky in that cr500 if it is not punched out to even run w/ a strong banshee or a strong ds. Last weekend I outran a cr560 dirtbike, I have that on tape also if you dont believe me.


On a positive note, I am glad that your back is better. Sincerely........ Bring your 500 to dumont when you get a chance, and if your fast I will give ya all the big league credit you deserve. I am never shy to have videos posted of me running the hill, winning or loseing.








Benchracing at its finest

Sam, I cant log on @ planet. The computor that I logged on w/ crashed and it wont let me get new password on other computors I think cause its on the same server or cable modem line. NO YFZ HAS never came close, hes smoking crack, tell him That I will Pay for his gas if he will come to Dumont. I probably have it on vid, I have been tapeing most everything due to other keyboard soldiers now-a days.


Cardiac- Tony is down here and we are trying to figure out where to go(maybe coral pink), Pismo unfortunately is out of the question. Can ya make it to Dumont this weekend? My guess is that it will be too hot we really dont know where to go. I have a feeling you have a few tricks up your sleeve, so I try to anticipate that. Good luck @ pismo, let us know how it goes. Madracing will be there sunday i think w/ 800 and 727.

Sam, what color of yfz and what banshee? Its probably some kid running off @ the grill hyping it up. I have not had any probs w/ ANY bikes @ Dumont. faster Dirtbikes let alone a yfz. I mopped a white yfz on alky nitro a few weeks ago. These guys had a radar gun and didnt want to line up on my side.

WOW!!! I cannot believe she just said this!!!!! Comical.

With your aray of mods I want nothing to do with you. That "hotcam stage 1" is just too intimidating anyways, I bet your makeing big ponies up high with that cam. Dont pick on me, I just have a reliable duner.
2002 Raptor
CT Full Race Pipe
Port & Polished Head
Hot Cam Stage 1
Wiseco 666 Kit 11:1
K&N Fliter
Holeshots

This is YOUR list, and you have listed a 666 kit ( I dont like that number!)???????????????????? Your compression is just off the hizzy though. You MUST have to run 120 octane in that beast.LMFAO ( I forfiet any drag raceing w/ you due to fuel wastage)
Is that HP# w/ a 20 shot?



BTW- For a 666cc motor, do you hone out the cylinder and run a bigger ring gap???lol


Posted by: ANNIHILATER

I just went to the CT website for a little looksee. They seem to do good w/ 2 strokes ( I think) But I was a little distracted by the raptor pipe comparison. From a stock raptor to a raptor w/ a CT pipe kit & K&N It gained a whopping 15.6 hp peak, and all across the board increase. That is really amazing.

LMAO!
Keith, How the heck are ya? We need to hook up @ pismo or something. I dont know what kind of comp is out there these days. How is your hog runnin? Have you guys been handlin bussiness out there.
BTW- I left the brakes on and put double buffs on the front to help keep her down, especially when chuck gets on her.
We need to see if ctracer can meet us @ Pismo. call me if ya get a chance.

ok no joking, im guessing my hp to be in the 70s i need to take it over to a local guy with a quad/bike dyno when i get the motor. the cranks supost to be done monday... so wont make it to pismo, but should be there memorial day...

Posted by: DragRaptor727

or you can put a jet booster on your swingarm, that should make you go really fast.....




Posted by: bansheeesmoker

You guys are going to need 100+hp to keep up with the big dogg banshees.

Posted by: bansheeesmoker

didnt mean to get your panties in a bunch. If I had the money you wasted I'd have a 600hp long traver suspensions'unlimited sand car. sorry but you conterdicted yourself. beating a banshee with a ds just means you have deep pockets too so dont think your special + Id have to see it to belive it. I dont own a banshee. I ride red. If you were to look at my bike it's not a drag bike its a very fast dune bike. I dont have a mechanic I do my own work.

Good burn. I dont mind losing either. I dont evean have $7000 into my bike yet (cr500quad) I wont be running my bike till october, re-porting and going with a bigger carb and n.o.s. should be pushing 100-110hp. Be glad to race a fast 4-stroke. Every time I race a 4-stroke at glamis they never line up to me twice, evean when I give them a half hill head start. I'm going to the river this weekend in my 750hp jet boat. 110 mph in 9 second's. My faverote 4- stroke, big block chevy. I spend most of summer at my river house at the water wheel.

Posted by: sparkskiller

ctracing why then in the pipe test back in dirt wheels did the ct pipe make the most power and had the best curve when the graydon pipe which is/was the same back then back way less and had a not so smooth curve. the graydon and ct pipe are made by the same mfg.

oh wait i know the answer the pipe test was done at ct racing and all dyno's can be set up to get high numbers or low ones. straps to tight, to low air pressure and so on. to get 50 rear wheel horsepower will take pipe, filter, cam and piston.

Posted by: CTracingraptor

Do your homework ladies, you dont have to have a big bore to make big HP, CT Racing 680 kit is putting out 68-70hp. Who else can do that one a 20cc bore?

Posted by: CTracingraptor

wow i didnt think my input would create such a conflict. I dont know what Dyno CT uses. I don't have a big bore.... everything i did to my raptor was on a budget sorry guys if i dont have money falling out of my A$$ to drop into my motor. I bored it not by choice on making speed, i bored it over the smallest amount possible, cuz i had over 400 hours on my stock piston and rings and they were fryed and i had a small scratch in the cylinder wall. I bought the hot cam cuz once again i dont have enought money to buy titanium rockers arms and new valves. Also 77rwh is different from what i was saying 68hp. Also i dont know if its rwh or not? All i am saying is i dont know whhy you guys are boring over 700 if its not a drag only bike. Personally i would never go to a 770 or a 727. I would rather have a 680 or Sparks 690 kit. But i dont have that kind of cash flow. My raptor pulls hard and thats what i like, yeah youve got your big bore and your faster and youll win, but ill still race. Im happy with my motor, until the 666 gets toasted im gonna run it, even on my measley 11:1 comp. Then ill opt for the 680 or 690. Until then il save up for A-Arms, shocks and a swingarm.

Posted by: CTracingraptor

Madracing if you actually paid attention to the CT web site they didnt use a cam for that 49.2hp just the pipe, jet and k&N

Posted by: CTracingraptor

yah debeechman i had right around 400 hours the best i could figure without any mech porblem, it still ran good but i could tell it was losing compression, i could have re-ringed and ran it again but that small scratch needing a little honing

Posted by: Cardiac

Annihilator, I will be at Pismo Sunday. I know I am not as fast as you, but with the latest tricks I should do OK. Especially for a 'fat old man' on a DS. Hop to see some of you fast rappies there.

Posted by: 1BADRAPTOR

65 to high 70 s is a fast raptor , i think...other than that i just senn fast bikes on the hill, would like to know what those push..

Im hoping in the 70's for my bike and is just a guess, id rather test on the sand..

Posted by: 1BADRAPTOR

Im soon going to find out about the 70HP, im trying to run with the BIG DOGS as soon as i am done...I hope that stroker runs good now cuz franks pilot at dumont thought the old 686 i was on before was real fast..
