racinfarmer Posted July 7, 2020 Author Share Posted July 7, 2020 Anyone remember when they ran sno-x in the stadiums in the late 90's and 2000's? How about some 70's snow ovals? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnstang Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 I grew up on the 90's so that's the old sleds that I'm interested in as far as having an old vintage type sled. I'm looking to get into a nice Jag Z when I find the right one. A Jag special would be cool because it was first year but I like the black tunnel that was on the Z.

Worked on a real nice 95 Thundercat that needed fuel pumps. No rebuild kits available or fuel pumps. Any manufacture now most dealers don't want to work on older sleds and no parts available from the manufacturers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sled was gone less than 24 hours after being posted. It was a nice one too only 1900 miles and looked mint. Oh well I sold one of my sleds last night so I'm really freed up to pounce on something if I see it. But I got to ride the old Jag today when I went out to set traps so that was a treat. Forget how nice it is to ride on powdery snow. So soft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racinfarmer Posted September 24, 2023 Author Share Posted September 24, 2023 2023 season bump. Working on a Cheetah 399 in addition to the MF'ing Enticer 250 race sled. Cheetah: Pulled the tank and carb, cleaned it out, cleaned carb (but didn't rebuild), brand used fuel lines, new filter, new fuel line clamps, greased it up. Will need drivers for sure. Has the white sprockets of deth that'll shatter to 100,000,000 pieces 20 feet into the snow. Enticer: Looking at it and 3d printing parts for it. I guess I'll take the electrical stuff next. Need to pick up a Tiny Tach or 2 wire tack for it at a swap meet or something. Graphics and numbers too. At least it has great compression. Swap meets: Made it to Princeton. Will try to make it to Kasson, Elk River, and Gilman. Drinks: Hamm's 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was all original at first, but I'm fairly certain it has been semi-restored at some point. I sold all my vintage stuff except the Enticer and a Lynx last year. Now I'm thinking I'd like to have a couple again, so here we go. Going to start with nicer sleds to begin with though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racinfarmer Posted October 13, 2023 Author Share Posted October 13, 2023 If it is too wet to be out in the fields and feel up to the drive, I may hit up Gilman. When we lived in the hood, Gilman was only a 25 minute drive and it is a great little swap. Would go every year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
