A little 300. Well it got its ass handed to it by a little 250 with a mild mx port not a drag port at all.

Sounds like somebody is feeling a little inadequate. Don't hate the player hate the game

That didnt make sense on my part. The 250 was faster.

That 250 must have been built all to hell because my friend has a 440ex and he smoked a 250 that had all the bolt ons and had head work done and had a fresh rebuilt top end and he tore it up 5 times in a row and even switched bikes and the 440 still won and I tore him up and he has rode my bike and I rode his and my gas gas still won. I know my quad is fast and I know that it is not the fastest quad out there but I do not feel the need to bad mouth other peoples quads because they are better or worse than what I have.I am not saying that a 250 will not outrun a gas gas but alot of things can change a drag race ie: driver ability, traction, launch so do not be so quick to bad mouth something. So think what you want to but just keep your lip to youself people like you bring everybody down so chill out brother life is too short to be bitter.

Cool head 19cc dome, 188 deg EX duration with 34 deg blowdown 58mm width, cheap ass FMF pipe, V-force reeds. Doesnt sound that built does it, pretty standard setup. Oh it was .20 over to that probably added like a lot of horsepower LOL.

So all Im saying is they dont run as well as I expected them to run.

Thats cool piece to ya brother you can have your own opinion that is why they make so many different quads

No problem dont get defensive, they are a nice machine with lots of cool trick parts but I just expected a little more balls for that much money.

I am posting this from an owner of a mint condition 250r who has purchased a new GG300. It was actually Pro-X 310r. If anyone is interested he is selling his r now. I can send you pics if
anyone is interested. This is what I asked and what he said:

Is it fast?
Yes! I took it out to a woods track and a gravel road to see how it would run against some other popular quads. It will smoke a Z400 from beginning to end on a gravel road drag. Even with the
best Z400 pipe made (CT), it was closer but no match. I also ran it against an R with a Pro-X 310 cylinder, ported, pipe, aftermarket chassis and the same carb and Maxxis Razr tires.
The R was no match for it either on both acceleration and top speed. This R had a fresh motor on it and all of the racers that I raced against were experienced racers. It ran real well in
the woods, the only disadvantage was the front end width. With it being slightly wider in the front than my XC 310R, I was a bit afraid of smacking a tree.

How is the powerband?

Once I jetted it in, It was excellent! Stock, they are too rich, especially in the mid range. Your first impression is that it doesn't have a lot of lows and the power isn't super smooth.

After the jetting it has lots of lows and smooth power yet it will scream on top and rev quite higher than a 250R. I found that in the woods I could lug it like a 4-stroke to near idle speed
in 1st thru 3rd and it would pull hard and clean. Very controllable power, good for XC racing.

You can clearly hear the exhaust tone change when the powervalve opens up. I found that the in
the woods the valve was usually closed which gave me excellent low end power, which allowed me to maintain traction which also made it a good hill climber. When I would come out of the woods into a field, just a quick slip of the clutch to get the revs up, the valve would open and it would flat out scream. If you were in 1st through 3rd or if your revs were already mid to high
in 4th through 6th, clutch slipping was not needed. We all do this with our R's.
