Hi i was just wondering if anyone could give some input on my question here. Im thinking of buying a stock 1998 600 xlt 136 track for lake racing and stuff like that. My question is would it beat a stock 1998 600 powder extreme 136 track that i also might be thinking of buying? I know both engines run reliable when stock, but i was just wondering which would prevail?

The powder extreme will take it stock
but put slp tripples on the xlt and it will pull ahead of the powder extreme

WELL if you know anything about sled no offence but the twins have more get up and go but at higher speeds the xlt will smoke the powder extreme it will just have more there. i had a powder specail 600 and i now have a xlt rmk i had them both at one time on the lake and in powder the xlt was the best and lightest so i sold the xlt and both sleds were stock with about 2,000 miles and the rmk has slp trail skis but they are plastic and my cat had plastic to but the xlt had ware bars

Powder Extreme
The Powder Extreme is a 600 triple piped triple that was rated at around 118 hp and it ran like a scalded cat when dialed in and had an aggressive rider on it. I think the XLT would not stand a chance even piped. But I have not ever been around a piped XLT, I ride a single piped one. I had several friends that rode them when they were new. Their only short coming was that they were quite heavy.

oh i didnt know that that the exteme was a tripple my specail 580 bored to 600 was a twin and the xlt was faster sorry i didnt say
I'd put my money on the XLT if it has triple pipes and was properly set up, since they were way lighter than the 600 powder extreme.
Thanks guys for helping me out
ive ridden both and the cat is waaay faster but feels alot heavier than the poo. if you are lookin to lake race then the pow extreme would dominate, on the other hand if you want to do anything else its pretty much a wash, good luck.
