    Actually I don't understand the low mph that goes with those times. We went to the drags tonight and the guys that were running mid to low 4s were running 67 -71mph.
    1upfront ran a couple 5.2s @58and 60mph.

    theres nothing low about the times. at haspin it was radared at 52 mph at 300 ft. its only going 6mph faster with me on it in the same space. look at the mph beside my times. some where banshees, 450r, and crf powered 400exs
    there is a track near by that is 600 ft, now alot of quad run 65-72 mph at the end of the run, but hell, there topped out too.
    billy's cr500 atc ran 55mph at hapsin two years ago, and that was the fastest atc two years ago.

    Also .. it dosen't matter on the MPH ... IF YOU CAN "GIT' OUT THE HOLE by 3 bike length's from the other Racer... you run a FASTER Time but a slower MPH..
    Keep in Mind that this is a 250 cc Motor , Naturaly Asperated , Carb'd , ETC. ,
    NO CUT TRANNY,NO N20 and NO ALKY .. it's A ONE "OFF" THING that is F A S T !
    i think .... "maybe" one day there could be a "Pink Slip" Race with this Thing ?
    THAT'S why it's called the ............... " MANTIS " . TWO BIKES out the Hole .

    Hagan clocked 1upfronts 300 at 58 mph this year at trikefest. He wasn't the fastest one there though. Marks 500 was by far the fastest one there.
    The track we went to last night was 300ft. Check the last vids I just posted on the Dirt Drag llc thread on the racers lounge, the outlaws were all running the E.T.s you are running but their mph is way higher. I guess I'm just a dumb bass.

    65 mph in 600ft? 4x4 utility will run that in 600ft.. Are you sayin that runs 52mph with a 4.4 in 300ft?

    That's what I read also. It must really hook out of the hole.
