He applies everything gained from that life into his engines, and has taken the sled drag world to a level that i dont think it would have hit otherwise. They are now starting to work with nitro, but that's a whole new world, even for them. I know Ryan Esner on the Frozen Assets 2 (Hypersport) sled is tied in with the Warning family. Was invited to their warehouse a while back and they have a jaw dropping snowmobile collection. The original Frozen Assets sled was an old drag style sled with a turbo big block. There's youtube videos of when it crashed. Edited August 16, 2022 by Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He even held the world record on a kitty cat at one time, i think it was 109mph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember there was an article on that sled and it was impressive the engineering that went into it. That's not taking anything away from the speed that they ran with it.

According to every 8th owner f7 that’s too slow. Should be at least 125 on a 03f7. The one they pull out of their trailer park yard will run 125 all day long in the 1000 Edited August 17, 2022 by Not greg b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
