Box Stock M8 vs Pro...1st Outing....VIDEO

[HiWaYman92]

If Wyoboy would have been riding the Cat he would have went over the top of the hill before the Poo got out of its trench! Jab jab! I'm sure the Cat wasn't "Set up right." I haven't tried one yet for myself, but I was expecting the Cat to beat the Poo. I thought the new chassis along with the great motor would have edged out the Poo's, but looks like my old '11 Pro isn't obsolete yet.

When the sleds are this close in performance, it just adds a little more fun factor to the whole riding experience. If one was to walk away form the other then it just wouldnt be as fun. Im glad the manufacturers are finally learning what mountain machines are about.

We were out friday and Saturday found a few hills to challenge the sleds. 12 Pro, 11 Pro, couple 09 XP's, older M8, 2 etecs 154's. No Pro climbs. the Pros and the etecs traded marks both days. The etecs seemed to have more power but by the top of the deeper snow hills the Pro's were right with em, sometimes ahead, sometimes back. The 12 XP's are actually almost as much fun to ride as the Poo Pro, good for u Doo, you're learning.

I have noticed as well..the 12 xp is pretty smurfy..it gets around much better then the older xps...

the battle for 2nd and 3rd place is fun to watch.

funny i didn't see the video of the cat and doo

I thought the video clearly shows the proclimb turning out cause it was about to get stuck while the pro would have easily continued on.

The 3rd pull was the only one where i needed to turn out or dig out...

Thanks for the post, I went from Poo to cat in 08-09 season due to Poo motor issues. I really liked my M8 off trail but sure missed the Poo ride getting there. I've since put a couple grand in mods to the M8 and am very happy with it. The K-mod helped the trenching a bunch. Was looking at either a new cat this year or the Poo but decided to stay on the sidelines. My bud bought a 12 poo and I'm looking forward to riding it. As for the new cat.....well that video kind of confirmed my suspessions on the hill. Hope it at least has a better ride on the trail getting there.

Hahaha. I was just talkin to some cat guys that saw the vid and they were making all kinds of excuses why the cat lost. I just told them the cat probably blew a belt half way up on every race.

Shall I tell you where 15lbs of boost landed me?

Just imagine if the PRO had clutching? (further more imagine if it ran like our PRO's run!)

Also note the M sled poached in the third video and once he cleared the track it stopped. The PRO was most disturbing in that if that is the fall off you get after three very short pulls your clutching is seriously wanting. I'd be spending some money on that aspect so you can get the most of it. Not being mean...those are indisputable facts from your vid.
