A few little tricks from "Krazy Krahn" got it into those 112+mph speeds which I thought was pretty impressive for a 144" track. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long track with shallow attack angle. If you lowered the front a bit and corrected the skid geometry I’d bet it would run even better.

How about 100 mile stretches of river or 20-30 mile sections of staked lake trails and beautiful flat 20-30 mile sections across swamps with 100+ mph sweeping corners every 1/4-1/2 mile. My area offers a great mix of everything and I can hit 100mph on every trail within minutes of every direction of my house. A sled that struggles to break 100 is a complete snooze.

stinkipinki Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 I'd guess they are working on a 850ish cc to 950ish mill. Be interesting to see what it ends up being. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
