2006 Polaris Outlaw 500 vs my V

**VFORCEJOHN** · 02-12-2007, 01:35 PM

the outlaw isn't a drag quad. Not with the IRS

those that have compared it to it's sibling the 500 predator know it is not the same. the 500 predator will beat the outlaw a bit more than your vforce did.

win is a win.

I wish I had some quads to race around here!!!

John, you haven't seen this video, have you? Yes I know the one on this video is a 525 powered by KTM but still IRS.

<div class='quotemain'> Good win, but I don't know why Vader said good showing for the little guy. The 700 is 200cc more and has more mods and only weighs 75lbs more. But a win is a win. [/b]

91 lbs. more plus a CVT and driveshaft sucking up HP...

V weighs 515lbs and the Outlaw is 439lbs. That comes to 76lbs.

True, the CVT soaks up hp, but it also has a big advantage to. Just gas and go. The Outlaw guy to get the best drag time need to shift at the right point every time. So the margin of rider error is much greater with the Outlaw. But dragging is still fun and that is all that counts.

I like to see better vids showing a real drag race ,not a splice of a v infront of a quad...

you can tell if a rider has tallent that way .... if hes starting in 2 or third gear ........ starting off the rev limmiter and you never hear him drop the throttle in every shift ect ect ....

Ya and PIPO is also a professional drag racer

From now on no drag race is to be considered as a true race unless Bartlett is piloting the other quad

cuz everyone knows the V can be beat by all quads if the rider knows how to properly drag race
