Just for a reference, a pro stock car, with 1350 hp, can run a 660" lap around a 4.25-4.30

Thats amazing
My car will 60' .960 and 660" 3.80's, takes close to 3000 hp at 2400 lbs to get that done on asphalt. I cant imagine hooking up on the ice like that

That brought back a lot of memories. I raced MSDRA back in the 80's and 90's. Ice and grass we did pretty good, won more than I lost..

One thing many people do not realize is how quick even a stock snowmobile really is. In the 1/4 mile on aspalt they kill the fast motorcycles. Here a sled versus drag car.

How about the Hayabusa vs a sled

The new turbo 4 stroke sleds are under 10 sec stock.
