Joining the darkside

I think it had a DRZ bottom end because that's the only way you can fit a kick starter for racing on a Z400. It's a MAJOR pain in the ass to fit a kicker on the regular Z bottom end.

I remember they did a race to compare rider skill, and I was laughing hysterically. They had Doug's factory LTZ quad completely built for racing against a stock Z400 to compare the difference in speed and swapped riders with this entry level racer guy and Doug beat his lap time on the stock Z400 even when the other guy had the factory LTZ. Oh the shame. :-[
