The far quad in the pic is one of our drag ATV's. The quad was primarily used for bracket racing, but in this pic it was being used for heads-up/grudge racing.

I did the initial research, development, building & testing of our NHRA legal 1/4 mile drag ATV. The project started around 2005. Around 2015 I gave all the quad stuff to my son's.

Anyway, the main drag quad is coming home to dad. It will be reconfigured primarily for 1/8-mile heads-up racing. I might swing my leg over the seat for some testing, but it's primarily for my youngest son to race again.

My grandson would absolutely love that.


His Mom, not so much....

goob- always in trouble with Mom and Dad

Not directed at you specifically Goob. A properly built drag ATV is a very quick straight-line performer. Most people take them for granted on their ET & the #1 comment is "that's cute". Our comeback is always "wait till you see cute run".

Anyway, our quad in the pic is a Yamaha Banshee with a bored & stroked 443cc twin on race gas. The quad ran low 6's in the 1/8th & 10.0's in the 1/4.

The performance example was old school times & doesn't hold a candle to what they are doing now with them!

Oh, I know them things are rockets.

Hmmmm!

Watched a guy go 5.40 this past weekend on a banshee…moving!!!

One of my son's, went 4.99 about a month ago!

This slip is from an import event at Orlando Dragway about a month or so ago. It's funny how he didn't even want to share any info about it.

This is the same quad as the OP, with a slightly bigger motor. The last time it was on the track was 2019. It was running well into the 9's in the 1/4 mile.

It is currently getting freshened up for testing sometime this fall or winter.
