Please give these guys a read. It's great to see other people organizing pro-2stroke content and keeping the consumer base unified. I love this site so far. What do you guys thinks?

I just checked out the site. It looks really cool, and I'm glad to someone else spreading the gospel about the advantages of a 2-stroke, unlike Dirt Wheels who mercilessly spreads their 4-stroke propoganda.

Dirt Wheels sucks... anyone sucks who's opinion is based on who's paying them... unless of course you're the one paying! lol

Yeah, I have not bought a Dirt Wheels magazine in about two years. I just got tired of them telling me how much better a TRX450R was than my TRX250R, which I know is complete BS. I remember when the TRX400EX came out back in 1998, and Dirt Wheels could not stop raving about it and saying "replace your tired old 250R!" I distinctly remember them drag racing a 400EX against a 250R, and trying to sugar-coat the 400EX's loss. It's just funny to me than Honda built a machine so dominating that they themselves can't beat it. The 400EX in my mind was not even in the 250R's league and while the 450R may be faster stock, it falls behind when engine modifications are made.

My friend had a 400ex before the 450's came and we'd watch racing on TV and I'd shove it in his face when a 250R would win despite the dirth wheels articles telling you how the 400 was a reaplcement for the 250R. I would leave him so far behind on sand hills in glamis I could turn around and face the hill to watch him come up behind me is how bad that 400 sucked in the dunes - granted my R ran pretty well, but still it would take massive effort to get that pos to compete with a decently tuned 2stroke with a stock cylinder. He rides an 88 R today. Dirt wheels had it wrong then, and I don't know why they'd be more trustworthy today.

I remember beating down a 440EX that some kid had with my stock cylinder 250R. It was pretty funny because him and his buddies thought this bike was just a beast. I pulled up to a store and this kid wanted to race. I told him three times that I did not want to embarass him, but he insisted. Needless to say, I won. I never did race a 450R with my stock cylinder 250R, but I have crushed one with my ported 250R. I love the look on their faces when they get beat by a 23-year-old machine. I guess the 250R is just that good.
