Raffa's Z is the one to beat

[Tri-ZNate]

The only time he lost is when he pulled a wheelie, all the other vids he won in (and he was 3 yards behind the guy after his wheelie). Here are some clips and pics :D. Oh and his time slip said fast under "time" so were not quite sure how fast he was runnin ;).

holy crap man!!!!!!! that is one sweet rig. but i still like my hondas

[Derrick Adams]

So, the "Riddler" owns the dirt drags. Sweet! Guess I better get started on my 500 for trikefest. I've been waiting to see how it ran. Nice roost all the way down the track!

Nice job Raffa.

[ATCwithdrawals]

Nice vids, looks like Raffa held his own against the modified banshees except that last video, sounded like a modified snowmobile engine in that quad(no shifting):beer

[twgranger]

them are some sweet vids!! She is a ripper for sure.

[Billy Golightly]

NO TIMES? Dang! I'm away from the house on DIalup but when I get back I'll have to check the videos.

[Tri-ZNate]

Nope no times, thats Ronnie only information ;)

[weed]

enlighten me on what that motor started out stock as......
nice bike btw

[Billy Golightly]

Well since ya'll are being so secretive about what its running I'm gonna guess it ran good with 4 and some change. I'll just time the video when I get home :lol: :D

[Louis Mielke]

Looks like location segregation isn't gonna be the thing next TF. Its gonna be brand. Team yamaha's getting all secretive. Hmm. Looks like teams Hodna and Kawasaki got some work to do. lol

wonder if it would be possible to hook two 500s up in tandom? lol

[Yamahondaman]

Nope no times, thats Ronnie only information ;)
GIT EM RAGSSSS !!!!
TF07 will interesting for sure !!! HEY Billy ... don't worry too much...everytime i see yours run ... its faster !!! so by the time June gets here you might be ok ?
i guess we're gonna have to put the "Florida" Port Gimmick in that stock 500 ?
What are us little TWO-FITTIES gonna do now ?? :(

[Louis Mielke]

bottle feed the 250s!!!! lol

[Yamahondaman]

bottle feed the 250s!!!! lol
THATS WHAT I'M TALK'N BOUT !!!
i still have the NOS adaptor in my intake ...:naughty:
maybe i can look into getting me another sneeky pete system ?
when i BLOW it up ... i can be a flag man at the MX Track :rolleyes:

[dizasterzrfun69]

so whats it take for a 250r to beat these "490s" and "500s"?? A 330 kit? or would you have to go 370 or 410?:naughty: I heard that someone had a 310 last year and was pretty dam close to billy during practice. hmmmm...

[Billy Golightly]

Yeah that was Jason Hall's 310. It depends on what you do to them, I mean Ronnies 250 has beat my 500 numerous times, did beat Jason Hall, and the KX500 tecate that was there too. But then again Ronnie is the holeshot king, no one believes it but theres alot more to drag racing then "Holding it wide open and shifting".

[Kintore]

Looking good out there Raffa, bike is sick!


How bout you let me take er for a rip? :)

[Tri-ZNate]

I cant wait to hear how Raffa did today. I wasnt able to attend but raffa was one of the qualifiers for $10,000 yesterday (Woody's Shootout, 2 bikes satrday get entered and 2 bikes sunday. Can be the same ones.) He probably wont be on till 11-12a.m. if I had to guess

Boy that would be something... Have the bike pay for itself the first time out. I hope the best for him. :beer

[Garage Boy 34]

Awesome!!! I can't wait to race you at TF! Even though it looks like you will smoke my tecate, but it is all for fun. Looks like I definetly need to take my trike off of pump gass so I will not finish to far behind you! Awesome TRI-Z!!!!

[Bryan Raffa]

nope did not place for the shootout only the top 2 from saterday and sunday they pulled the top 2 from pro mod and super pro mod for the shootout..same guy made it in with 2 diffrent bikes one from pro and one from super pro.... give me a few and ill down load the vid i got... OH I ran my best time today...

[Louis Mielke]

Get some slicks and go see what it will really do on the blacktop!

the first one was my last run that took me out..he ran a 4.675 with a reaction time of .580 mine was a .794 but still.. needs more work to run with the boys at a 4.6-4.7 in my class..Both guys in my class ran faster than me,,Plans are all ready started for this winter... say tuned for that!

HRC here on the boards ran a 4.9 with his 250R saterday in super pro mod and won his class...

TWO Days strait drag raceing..Ive have been bitten by the drag race bug hard core!!!!:lol:

[dizasterzrfun69]

no one believes it but theres alot more to drag racing then "Holding it wide open and shifting". Well i believe it and thats one of the reasons i know a modded 250r big bore CAN beat the 500's and 490's. I finally recieved my 89 trx engine a couple of days ago, now its time to look for a big bore kit.... I just DONT want the yammi's to take the drags at TF07. sorry to hi-jack your thread raffa :rolleyes: That Z is BAAAD:naughty:

thats a 4.8 brian!!!! finally got her runnin right... :w00t: shes going on a diet this winter and i might do a different cylinder, next yer i hope to get consistent 4.7's or maybe even 4.6's with my little 250 with no nos, and its completely possible. but brian, i believe with a staright-up hardcaore drag port job and maybe a different fuel :naughty: aka meth, you could easily be up there being competitive in your class. that thing runs nice, looks nice and is done right-thats the first step. im glad to see something like that done right.

[Levithan]

Looks like that bike needs a longer swingarm! Lol, still popping wheelies on that thing! Well have fun, I wonder how a Tecate 250 would hold up in the drags? =)
