What was the last sled you blew the motor up on?

So, only about half the power of one of those 850 “hyper sled” mils then?

Got a bad pail of Q16 and had worse deto on that than 93 pump gas.

Had a horsepower goal in mind, turned the boost up and sent it

 What you use to test the gas?

Well, AFTER it all went to shit, we used the dynotech RVP tester, which came in at 1 psi.

That is some shit fuel how old was it?  Did it have water on the bottom?

Brand new, i cracked it open that morning. 

That sucks.  I guess lessons learned on that.  For Sunoco at the track we have to check the fuel at setup and every morning after that.  Nascar gets a fuel sample every day.

I wish we had more Sonoco dealers in my area.  Last sled ran Surge….and my next one might also.  I’m skeptical of the race fuels available locally.  Only one station and I know that shit is old.  Local dirt track has some decent stuff but it’s a bit of a haul.

We have a small airport 4 miles from here. Pay at the pump. Unmanned. Open 24/7. Avgas is not for everyone but it would be for more than people would think.

Avgas is a great fuel! And cheap!

Other than for storage, due to being non ethanol, it's a poor choice for a sled.

Don’t you have a cheese curd to trip over and total your sled? 
 

Note to anyone reading this, I can’t believe someone hasn’t taken a picture of dipshits sled and made a meme out of it wrecked next to a pile of cheese curds outside of a Culver’s. Seriously.

Definitely not enough to get around The Rickster.

Was that shit put in the can in 2010 or something? Holy hell.

Not much new on my end.  Just work work work :bc:  Hope everything on your end is good as well.  Ya, that DOO was the biggest piece of shit I have ever owned.  I would have taken my nytro over that heap any day.  Now I have gone old man style and ordered a Titan for this year.

Not quite the feedback you were fishing for, I guess?  :lol2:

I'll give you the pity bump you're looking for .. my buddy's 2018 XCR 800 blew on him.  Granted, it was a lemon / hack job by Mr. Bikeman himself, Erich.  My buddy was getting "a deal" from Erich on the work ... however, I think my buddy would argue that looking back on the experience.

Was this before or after his nights and weekends stint in the workhouse for theft . 

I can't believe people continued to spend money on his hack shit for so long .

Yes ssi at black diamond in cannon falls. They have some good deals on stock take off parts when they do those pro lite builds. I wouldn’t buy any performance parts off them 

Especaly after Eric started working there swinging his garbage .
