Strong Elan!!! Gotta love to see old iron haul!

That was the slowest start I've ever seen a ZX 800 do though. I have the same sled stock with a 151 track that would absolutely demolish that thing.

Love that the guy on the Elin is in full Kilm gear!!!!

Hey I love my Klim gear I wear it on all my sleds.

My elan btw isn't an old piece of iron, I think the only thing elan about it is the look. I made the entire chassis from aluminum and made everything lightweight, this sled weighs very little.

The 800's problem was that it just chewed up the foot of snow until it hit ice then he had no traction, I have traction on anything. I top out at 55-60mph and he cleans me after he can catch me - but it's too over powered to catch me on a lake

Installing the 540 yami fan this weekend and putting taller gears in it - should be fun.

Thanks for watching!
