Well as a guy who has a pretty pimped out Renegade and friends with pimped out Raptors I am going to have to say that its going to come down to the driver. My two buddies drive 07 Raptors, with exhaust and chips. I would allways beat the same guy up drag hill but the other guy would allways kick my ass. Now I havent raced them recently seeing as they now both have big bore kits on their rigs, but I figure they will kick my ass. They only get the better of you about 2/3 the way up I am just to heavy.

cant see a renegade doing too well, not only are they heavier but they have a higher center, and irs isnt good for side hill stability. i know that renegades are like lightning in a straight drag, but a sport quad like the raptor should win in sand climbing.

I agree that its all about the rider I have a stock Raptor and I have killed alot of moded out Renegades both up hill and on the flats, and i have also been beat on occasion.
