Re: Snowmobile advise
I've got a ZR 800 EFI cross country and I love it! Fast, maneuverable, great throttle response and best of all extremely relibale. I have a 2000 T-cat also and it screams, but at the end of the day on the trails I'm pretty beat up and tired. The ZR 800 CCE is the best of everything!

Re: Snowmobile advise
There was a test a few months back where the compared a stock 700 cc Yamaha viper 120 hp to a Dodge viper in a quater mile drag race. The sled was jetted for the summer, it had a asphalt track and skis. The results of the test were not even close the sled totally spanked the car. With all this said most sports cars only wish the could accelerate as fast as todays larger sleds. To answer your question their is no comparision on a 1000 +cc jetski to the acceleration of a much smaller sled. Yes they have breaks!!!!

I loved it also. Sold it. Had a few things done to it. Never broke one thing on it and never had a one issue with it. I had ALOT of miles on it. I was puting over 1500 miles on it a week in Canada. I loved that sled.
