    Daughter raced my dad today on his new quad

    We went riding with the folks. Kids were wanting so bad to race my dad (grandpa), since he got his new Honda Rancho 350 (I think) its a 2004 model. He had as some may remember the 250cc quad he got form ebay. Well, it was a 4 stroke and way to slow, kids ran circles around him, he sold it in less than 2 weeks :-D So, today daughter lined up :-D and they were off...felt bad, daughter beat him bad, he said he was in 5th and daughter said she was in 3rd @ 35mph (according to dads guage) she was about 4 quads in front of him.
    Anyways, it was fun, and just wanted to point out these 22 yr old bikes can still run with the best of them :-D

    Ride safe.....

    I wasn't sure since it was air cooled and older. My dad (their Grandpa) even laughed after. Kids said, are you selling that now :shock: He said he might just go look at the Raptor :-D :-D

    What I am not sure is. You can see my signature but, both kids have a dg pipe, rejet carb. But, daughter has 20" tires and 42T sprocket. Wonder if that helped? Son didn't race, he not as fast on the gears as daughter, she is older.
    Was just curious is all :-D
