Second thing, couldn't help but notice those (twin) big fat headers and itty bitty cans on the quad. Would love for someone to explain the engineering theory on that setup. Looks like you guys had a great time.......
Good old expansion chambers and mixing oil and gas. You would be better Googling "how a two stoke works or something" although that quad is probably oil injected. I'tll be quicker for you than pages of explaining here.
