I was just wondering who all has a Polaris, with an atv motor? What kind of times does it turn in 300ft.

i had 400 sport and i ran 542

they got a bunch at bonne terre track , some modified and some stk, and a friend of mine got a sharp blk one , they been working on motor and frame combination most last season, the ones i ran against , the best i can remember times were in the upper 480- 90`s on sand and alky, maybe some of them will chime in

I have a 700. Turen tropheys out. 6.60 - 7.0 depending on tack.Mike Z knows the bike.LOL

i went 4.9s and 5.10s with a 400sport ported on alcohol with v-force reeds and cpi drag pipe and a cool head. a ligthend stock frame but the piston was loose in the cylinder and only had 115 pounds of compression

we have a 400 scrambler my sons girlfriend races. stock motor,frame,plus 5 swing arm stock carb,on nos. with a 15 shot its been running 4.9-5.0 with 1.8, 60 ft

your fulla [censored] Bill,,,,lol J/K,,,now,quit playing on the compu and get to work on my fenders,,,lol,,,,Jim

iv got a 400 polaris motor with an hpd cylinder on alcohol that ran 4.72 with me at 250 lbs and ran a 4.59 with a 140 lbs rider.

Will there be any going to the Big Race in La.?

I may be going, but we will just have to see when the time gets closer. As of now I dont have any paddles and still haven't ran the bike since monticello race.

I will try to be there too,Jared you can use my paddles.

I hope you both make it, It will be great to see you all again.

I have a friend that races a Bonne Terre. His daughter runs 4.8s on gas. They have a different cylinder setup Im not sure what is though.

Kathy did you build you a new frame yet?

Jared shoot me your email,my buddy just built a real nice drag frame,i have some pic's.

Send me a picture of it, I'd like to see it also. Kathy

IT WILL END UP COSTING YOU KATHY CAUSE YOU KNOW YOU WILL LIKE IT.( ha ha ) lol <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Hey Ced is he going to be putting a 400 motor in that? Looks good, hope it runs good. Send me some pics whenever its complete. Have you done anything else to your bike?

Ced, looks good, is that what you will be running? Jack shaft or transmission? Hope to see it at La. april. Kathy

Yeah he will run the 400 engine,CPI pipe with the stock tranny.I want to keep mine close to the way it is now,so i can still dune it.

Who did his engine work? I am in the same boat...dont want to spend any more money on the bike since I am trying to sell it. I am content with it how it is because I run bracket, and I am not trying to be the fastest polaris. Keep me updated on the progress and let me know how his setup works.

What was the best E.T. you and Morris got out of that girl this season?

Had my 400 it ran 6.1's last year with slight modifications. Sold it and starting to build a new toy. Post some pics when she is done.

4.61 on 300ft. I think with Morris doing a little more tuning to her she will run maybe some 4.4 this comming year???? Was just getting started and the season was over. It felt good to hold the ATVDRA record among other track records. With a special thanks to Chris and Gayla. I couldnt of done it without you guys. Kathy

No that was a 6.1 in 300 ft. This year we should be in the low 4's possibly it's a new idea for us. Not many over in the west.

So who all will be at the big race in La.?

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> ... Awwwwwww ! schucks. lol <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

We`ll be there. Ready or not.

The Professor Forcefed has alot of students in the world of ATV DRAG RACING....LOL <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I currently own the fasted polaris 4 stroke in northern ca it does 4sec in 300 feet in sand

4.?

Got a pic of it?

just what I was going to say?...

heres a hybrid!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Where is that at and what motor was in the bike you were racing??

Looking good

thats at holly beach this past weekend, the bike was a lre built 350 ,drag port , lighten crank all the 350 goodies very fast . there was also a black yz450 that was there that wa pretty quick he was keeping up with me ill post some vids tonight .

me and the 450 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

#2 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Lets see a picture of it LEADFOOT.

Anyone looking for a drag polaris $2900 takes it. Look under 2 stroke classifieds under polaris 400 dragbike. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

Will you have your bike at La., if you dont sell it?

Yeah...if I dont sell it by then I may just keep it or sell it for a little more. ?

Dont know if I will be ready or not by the April race.

What are you doing to it? Lightened frame? More nitrous?

Doesnt look like I will make it to the race. I have too many unfinished things to do and time is running out.

right now we are going to try and make it if everything goes alright. come on kathy, ya'll can sit with us I don't know if we are going to race or not but, if we bring any bikes you can ride 1 of ours, it will be slower than what you are used to but you can still try it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I should make it, but dont know yet. I have had some potential buyers but none have gone through yet. Been waiting to see what they do before I do anymore, but I have some good ideas to get it in the 4.6-4.8 range with not much work. We will have to see. Even if we dont race we will be out there.

Dont know just yet if we will be comming or not. Thanks for offering me one of the bikes. I wouldnt say they are that slow. I was hoping everything would be together by April but doesnt look like it will be. Sure wish this race would of been in June. There would of been a bigger turn out then. No one up this way has had any time because it's been cold here. We dont even get to do any tuning until May. Prodrag hope to see you there and hope you get to sell your bike. Kathy

I think these guys on here claiming times in the 4's are on something.. That or these are there 60 ft times. My last race in prim was on my alky 295R built by K&T and was only pulling 5.0's with a rigid frame. Here's a pick of a bike by Packard that runs a alky 480R pilot cyclinder and it runs low 4's. So when these guys claim low 4's I think they're full of it. just my .02

I HAVE SEEN KATHY'S POLARIS 400 RUN 4.8'S SO IT CAN BE DONE!!

Yes sir I am on something, SPEED!!! You can go to my web site and call any of the tracks that I have raced at and they will verify the times I have run on my POLARIS. I also hold many track records with this old farm tractor...LOL There are other people on this site that can verify that it does run what I say it does. I went to the Fall Nationals in Monticello Ms. last year and there were plenty there that seen it run 4.8. The fastest time it run last year was at the Blue Grass Nationals. That was a 4.61 in 300ft and that was with a fresh motor with only five passes on it cant wait to see what it will run with a little more tunning. I know it is easy to type in faster than you actually run, but I dont lie. I also have time slips and other racers that know this. Still dont beleive me??? Maybe some day you will see this old farm tractor get to run, seeing is beleiving. Oh by the way my Polaris has a little bit of Dennis Packard in it also the carb. was modified by him. I am not the only racer that has went under 5.0 either. There are several of them.

Yeah, you are wrong. My bike went 4.83 at its best and 4.90 the first weekend out. All motor, and it weighs a ton. I know it has some more in it, but I have only ran the bike once since I rebuilt it. Maybe you should check your bike and see how to get more out of it, because I used to see a 250r built by packard run some 4.2s in ms.

ive had the priviledge to race against a packard built(motor and chassis) 250R with i believe what was around a 480cc or so. it weighed less than 200lbs and ran 4.2's consistant

4.2's now that would be awesome out of a POLARIS

(wake up wake up your dreaming again)...LOL

If you dont have dreams you dont have much to keep you going!!!

I have a polaris 400 sport built by AZ BAD BOYZ in AZ that is stroked 7mm and has many other modifications such as a kx500 reed box and yamaha piston. That runs consistant 4.4s at atv dirt drags in fairplains wv. If you have trouble believing this you can call the track owner at 304-532-2271

Do you run these times at other tracks? Didnt I race you at Little Sandy?

Kathy...will you be up against my old bike at any races in the near future? I think the guy is closer to where you race at.

Dont Know, Havent seen it this year. I still hold all the track records for 2005. Too cold to race up here now. A lot of people say they run fast times, but when they come to race I am faster than they are. Tracks are different, but I usually run very close to what I say I run at all tracks. Between me and my bike I am about 100 to 150 lbs heaverier than most that I race also.

This is my nephew's. It has an Aaen kit on gasoline without nitrous built by RC Motorsports in Brookville, IN. Run's 4.9's on 300' Dirt. Frame is all tube solid suspended with stock engine cradle. It's only been out a few times and needs some tuning on the clutch.

yes we raced you at little sandys and we were on pump gas and our fastest time was in the 4.7s before we did some more tuning.And now hold the record in the non nitrous class.

You may of run 4.7 but you have to back it up and you couldnt back it up in that class. So they said you couldnt take the record, because your back up time was way off, something like 5.0. I am only repeating what they told me before I left. You also said you were on race fuel not pump gas at the track. You dont have to take my word for this, you can ask them yourself. I am only saying what was told to me by the track owners at Little Sandy.

Well I think you have done well with your bike, but I have a feeling that those records will be broken rather easily this year. And I am sure you will be faster as well so don't take that personal. Word has it that there are bikes out there running 4.6 without nitrous...with timeslips to back them....

I am currently taking pics of the time slips where we beat you and where we beat the person in the finals. So you can see we ran well below 5.0s and ran low 4.8s in the finals. And also the pic of the 4.7 so you can see it was all done in the same day. And pump gas is race fuel it is a way of sayin im not on alky.

Podrag, Guess I havent done to bad for a 180lb woman on a Polaris 400L sportsman utility bike I use to deer hunt on. Records are made to be broken. I plan on braking a few myself next year. Glad to hear there are more fast polaris's out there to race with. I also have heard of these fast times before, either they didnt show or couldnt back it up. You can type in fast times on the computer but that doesnt make your bike run those times. Thats just like racingO5 said he has time slips with 4.4. He may have, but when he came to Little Sandy and runs he was only running 5's, and with some tunning he got down to 4.8 once, that is what I seen. I am not saying he is lieing I'm just saying he didnt run those times at that time. As far as my nitrous goes I run 4.6 on motor not nitrous now. Also I have a few surprises my self for next year. Morris has been working on a 400 motor that will surprise a few also. He also has a Polaris 350L he has been working on that will put a few of the 400's on the trailer. This one will have a light rider and lightened frame. No hard feelings intended. Everyone has good days and bad. I have had 6 years of holding records and if I dont run real good next year it wont break me. I have learned a lot over the past years, from alot of the ones that I race.

Kathy im not trying to argue im just sayin that i now hold the track record in the non nitrous class and it is a 4.796 backed up by a 4.833 and i have the time slips i am taking pics of to prove it. And the slowest time i ran in that class was a 4.995 against your losing 5.084. And also kathy you hold the national record of a 4.61 and at kentucky the day we were there you did not run any faster than a 4.7 and that was on the bottle as for with the motor your fastest time was in the 4.9s now if you do the math that is 3 tenths of a second off of 4.6 we say we run 4.4s and we run 4.7s at kentucky that is also 3 tenths of a second off this proves that kentucky is 3 tenths of a second slower for both of us.The night that we broke the record before we left the track owner told us to write an article about our bike so he could have it. Thats all i have to say about that. The pics will be listed soon. The truth is your a tremendous competitor and have a beatiful bike and look foward to racing you again next year. Hopefuly you can come compete at our local track because there are a lot of polaris's there that would love to see you run. call for directions at 1-304-532-2271. Hope to become friends.

Well all in all I am just glad there will be more competitors next year. I think it is an accomplishment just to get those tanks to run faster than a 5.0. I hope most of the bikes next year are running mid 4s. Next year planet sand will be the place to run them and see who is the fastest(not that it really matters)...as far as I see it, that is neutral grounds. Most people run great times at their own track, but when they go to someone else's track they run slower. There are a lot of variables that factor into this. I did only see your bike go a 4.95 fastest in Monticello, but as I said it wasn't your track(mine either). If the bike lost a few pounds I am sure it would go a bit faster as well. Good luck to all next year.

hay all you polaris freaks i started on one in 97 by 99 we were running 4.80s on nos then in 2000-02 4.80 off nos this was stock frame 325# stock cylinder hpd race porting 44 lectron i changed frame to a jack shaft 280# went 4.66 off and 4.50on best times!! the same stock frame with a powermax cylinder went 4.59 now if you put that on the jackshaft frame your in the 4.30s off nos now add the nos??? iam thinking about putting this bike back together with a new frame ridge aluminum with the bike at 225# just think what it might run then you let your wife-girlfriend ride it??? ill bring it to sheltons drag strip i think that is the perfic track for this bike with pro weges this bike will be for sale if anybody looking???

you have any pics of this bike? that sounds like some really good times. The guy that bought my bike is running 4.5s and 4.6s on dirt....(modified stock frame w/4wd tranny) .040 over no nos. I may have one built next year, but it is a long shot. Post some pics and times..would like to see it.

i dont have any pic not a pic person as far as time slips i might be able to find some around here i dont need them any more iam just telling all polairs freaks that these bikes will run some pretty good times

I dont doubt it ran those times, I just would have liked to see a pic of the bike.

thats cool i sold the old frame still have all the parts when i get the new frame done rolling around on 4 wheels ill post some pic i have a hpd powermax and a az bad boyz 7mill with 500 reed cage i put the triple exaust port in myself have never ran the az 7mill cant wait to see which one is faster

I was just wondering how you put the triple exhaust port in yourself?. I also have the az 7 mill and it runs really strong. I think you will be extremely happy with it.

would someone pleas explain to me how to pst a video ...thanks

well that would be hard to explain trying to type all the steps i copyed some of the powermax cylinder you start off holesaw the outside of the cylinder to get to the inside of the casting then set in bridge port mill 7/8 hole thru the exaust port use 7/8 alu tubing bend approx 20-30 degres weld tubing to inside cylinder then do the inside exaust port then you have to make a plate to cover the out side so you dont leak any water when i sent it to .az. denis tought i did a good job!! i ran the cylinder on the stock stroke engine did not have any problems with leaking water did not have a chance to test to see if there were any improvement thats all i can say typeing!!

Sounds great, can't wait to see it run.
I also will be running a 442 stroker and a 495 stroker. The 495 stroker we have been working on for awhile, it ran a 3.4 on motor in 200ft. Can't wait to get it on a 300ft track and tune it in. Then maybe add the bottle. Both motors will be on lighter frames. Hopefully next year we will be able to get better traction, it was a major problem this year. Can't wait to see all these Polaris atv's come out to play. Good luck to everyone!

I think there will be a little 388cc polaris stirring up a little dust in those parts...., but we will just have to see.

Oh and I have seen a really neat powermaxx drag setup that will come out of the woodworks some time next year. Could definitely be a quick one, defenitely setup really nice.

from what i have seen powermaxs rule

You guys do know that with a little work the saber will fit on top combine that with a stroker crank and you can get around 550cc

shh....don't tell everyone that.

Old News

Have not seen one yet....have you?

i just seen the saber on here the other night and i could not sleep i cannot believe someone has not put one together i have seen the polandas so i thought you could do the other

You could very soon, O did i say that

i am kind of a polaris fan my self
I am working on a big single with maybe a cvt on it and a turbo

video of my son (far lane) on our az built polaris racing a cheeta cub.

I think I know who's bike you are talking about and yes I think it will be a fast one. He has a great set up comming together.

Everyone on here keeps talking about these fast Polaris's and the time slips but no one seems to post them. Come on I know a win is a win, but you know that banshee wasnt running right you can hear it. Please you all know it cant beat that banshee if tuned right and on a 300ft track.

not too jump in someones business but another Polaris hater
j/k

I understand where you are coming from. A good running cub shee will beat a polaris, but at the same time I dont think these times are far off. I can see one easily running a 4.4 on a lightened frame. You must realize these engines are just starting to come around. Many people dont feel that they are worth the time, but there are others that just like the challenge and at the same time you cant ask for a better bracket bike. It wasnt but a few years back when the big banshee engines were running 4.1s, but look at where they are at now.

to daryl this is my son beating a 497 t-rex banshee on a drag frame.

And this is my son getting beat by a cheetah cub on a drag frame but its close....

At springhill track 4 years ago we had a 400 sport run 4.71 stock stroke and bore. Built by the man, Packard. Oh, yea full frame as well.

I could be wrong, but that one I believe was the first stroker. Was it green, w/ drag pipe?

No, It was black and was a full frame and supension with a 8-over swingarm. It still had the stock transmission, It did have a drag pipe and was on methanol.

Did the person buy it from a guy in brookhaven mississippi? There was a big fella that had packard do him a stroker, w/black drag pipe, and a 50mm lectron alky carb. It was pretty quick, but not for what it had in it. Nice bike though.

No, it had a 44mm Lectron and I know with out a doubt it was stock stroke, I took the motor out of it after the crank broke, and checked the stroke myself.

This summer, first time on a track with lights and timers- 4.99 4.96 with a best of 4.93 Drag frame, stock cyl, stock stroke, on alky.
Its the closest "real" track to me, and its 5 hrs away

I am pretty sure Brent from Mac Racing built the first Polaris 400 stroker motor.

Trephity...yeah I think we are talking about different bikes. The one I saw had a spacer plate on it. I know Packard did a stroker in 2001 or so for a guy in Brookhaven. Ran really good, just couldn't get it to hook. The bike turned around 9000 rpms. I am just anxious to see what everyone has to bring to the table next year.....

just wonder what the that polaris would run like if it was in a 240lb drag frame?? some one needs to step and build one

we are biulding one for our rotax powered polaris sport , and next summer should have a rigid drag frame for our 416
our camera is messed up but as soon as i can fix it ill post some pics.
glad too see people have some respect for these heavy machines .
i also think that if polaris would have come out with there 400 motor with a manual transmission they would have come way better . but if you know how to clutch them they can go just as fast. i like a manual myself but when i rode my dads race moded 400 i sold my 395ex(300) and got me a race modded 400 . we also have a polaris with a port job that i did ,with some reeds,stock carb,wiseco piston, and a ftr pipe,and a violet springs, this is a awsome setup for the woods or track .

we have a 400 scrambler that billy girlfriend races. stock motor,plus 5 swinger,lightened stock frame,on nos. with a 15 shot it will run 5.2"s all day, she did run some 4.9's with 20 shot. no it will not run with our big banshee motors,but ive seen her beat two many stock banshees,with pipes,etc(basic first banshee mod). we didnt run it at planet sand last year,but will have it this year with some additional mods. predict-- under 4.5's consistent...

I think it is great that there are so many fast polaris that run other than E T's. Dont get me wrong they are very consistant for the E T's

we have a drag frame polaris it runs 4.9s but the swing-arm was to long so we went back to a stock swing-arm it should go 4.7s all motor (no nos or stroke)

another pic

just wanted to tell you that you did a very nice job on your chassis. Im having one built that should be done by the end of march.When it is finished i will post some pics

Looks nice! I bet its light. What pipe are you running?

one runs with us runs high 4.s . all motor scrambler.

HECK Yeah !

Who all can come close to that ?

No jockey either !

badd ass polaris, i miss my ftr done 400 sport. it was very modded and beat up some pretty well built banshees. just got me a 01 scrambler 400 2wd and some skat trac 12 paddles and front mohawks so now i need to tear off all the junk and get going on the motor. whos building them nowdays motor and stroker cranks. anybody do a jackshaft to replace the heavy gearbox. my brothers doing up a banshee right now so this thing needs to run.

Know of one at www.bigriversanddrag.com runs 4.6s all night long. Has 416 powermax on alcohol. Owner at the time was Archie Camden and the jockey was his daughter Erica. Modified stock frame with stock tranny. She won the points in unlimited 2 years ago. Since they have quit racing. Sold bikes to Jason Waller. Dont kknow what they run anymore. They still race at bigriver. The color of the bike was orange and blue and the other is all black. Look at the pictures on the web site
