[QUOTE="14D, post: 54979, member: 410"] [B]Ehh NO. If you go by classes(like pro displacement rules classes) then yes, a 250f is more powerful than a 125, 450 than a 250. I mean no shit, I'd hope something twice as big is more powerful.

And for woods, they're both bout the same, unless your talking small bore woods 2t's that get rung out allot(logging roads, desert riding), then you may be giving a top end more often.
