Default For my snowmobile friends here is some acceleration

Here is a clip I found from the World Series of Ice Drags. My sled is at the 2:30 mark. Major wheelie problem but when it would leave right it would run the 1/8th mile in the 4.80s around 135-137mph. That is running 0-100 in around 3 seconds.

Here is probably one of the 2 if not the fastest guys in the world. 4.43 at 152mph. Fricking sick!!!! Check out the 1:05 and 2:45 mark in the video. Two different views of the same pass.

I'd say you are right on with the "major wheelie problem." Damn dude...good thing you lifted that thumb when you did!

Got all my sleds dialed and ready for a run up to the Yoop the day after Christmas! Can't WAIT.

I've spent the last 3 weekends getting mine all ready for the season. Swapped out some suspension parts, changed worn/bent studs, did a thorough cleaning, replaced some trailer parts etc...

Now we need some snow!
