mnstang Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Interesting that they slowed down after 500'. Must be that sweet sweet mud. 59 minutes ago, Badger** said: I got to give it to Doo that's not bad for a under HP sled. In the past 30 years there have been some sleds close to the top Arctic Cat.

Haydays would be a better test than this shitty shoot out. The track is pretty consistent at haydays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bontz Posted December 13, 2021 Author Share Posted December 13, 2021 Knowing this shit show of a "Shootout" is nothing but fodder, I still have to shake my head that they can't come up with some level of "standard practices" ... the first one being, "We won't run this if it's 50 degrees and mud!" It doesn't mean squat, I know, but you'd think after all these years they'd have break-in complete via dyno, same track length models as well as lug length tracks, and at a minimum ... SNOW!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zambroski Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 It’s gotten worse for years. Less and less consistant and realistic. May be time to pull the cork. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were the only ones smart enough to not waste there time with this, although smart and Polaris don't go together these days. Or maybe they couldn't get back one of the 5 snow checked sleds they delivered this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crnr2Crnr Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 A big part of this is the DTR Dyno test There should be a Midwest version ran on a snow/ice track in January. I bet Bikeman would love to do the Dyno test and Joe could lend out the pond. Doo did well actually, will be more interesting in the real world.

Without them and a gps they wouldn't be able to find the finish line!!!! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Badger said, and I have also been saying for years, it proves absolutely nothing, except bragging rights for the year, to anyone dumb enough to think that those numbers are gospel. Like I said to guys in our group, our racing results during the year will vary. Anyone remember a few years back when the local doo dealer, after dealer prep, had a sled blow up, and he got so pissed off from the non doo crowd heckling he dropped his drawers and mooned the crowd ? Priceless. When we used to attend that shitshow, my favorite part was to watch all the great aftermarket guys run their high powered, modded stuff, with turbos etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deephaven Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 What's funny to me is the average trap speed of the Doo is higher which is where everyone figured the legs of the Yamaha would help. Did the Doodoo have launch control? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doo probably weighs a bit less. Both ran good speeds in 660 but this 'shootout' was basically pointless running on a shit track and not going the standard 1000' Edited December 13, 2021 by Crnr2Crnr I can't see shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
