I have a 583cc motor and he has a 650. Who would win in a race ?

Thanks! He just got the sled and I don't know if he's just cocky or what be he keeps telling me how fast it's going to be.

Ask him how his back feels when you done

Those 650's are fast, but not as reliable as the 700.
The Doo will most likely win this one.

I think once the 650 got traction and if the engine is healthy it could run with the 583 but Wildcats are heavy and have zero traction. I had a 550cc (stock) Cougar that would beat 583 Doo's and my buddy had a 650 Wildcat (stock) that was just a tick off my Cougar. I think with equal traction it could be a good race.

Heavy, yes, no traction, I differ on that.
My Wildcat had no trouble getting around even before I changed to a newer track ( 1 inch lug) . even better not and can keep up with anyone I choose to.
