Hello everyone, my name’s James, I’m 27yrs old and I just purchased my first New ATV – a 2015 Renegade 1000xxc.

I plan on getting a few good rides in throughout the week. I live in SoCal so I expect a lot of run ins with sport quads. My riding buddies have a raptor 700, a Suzuki z400, a Suzuki ltr450 and a Honda 700xx. Can’t wait to see how it will fair. I’m coming from a 400ex so I’m used to being the slowest.

Anyone have experience racing sport quads? From what I can tell, I have about a 45HP advantage over the Z400 (lowest powered) and a 25HP advantage on the 700xx (highest powered) but they weigh significantly less so it should be interesting. I’ll be sure to let you guys know the results. My friend mark (Z400) just got a new gopro so maybe I can even post a video. Any pointers for the new guy would be appreciated.
