<<I think I will keep the 300$ difference and spend it on some lingerie and champagne for the wife and really get a feel good moment!>>
Your wife wants to see you in lingerie with a bottle of champagne?!
That's cool in a risque sort of money saving way.
MD.
hey after 20yrs you gotta mix it up to keep it from getting stale!
Same for Winterbrew and DJ for much less....
Talk with me at the Snow Show. I have a buddy that wants to ride this winter but with 6 kids between his GF and himself he just doesn't have the coin floating around.

Saw them run some serious sleds at Fairview many times, they never do say whats in the setup but I've seen many turbo's get spanked in a drag race by there 800's, all I know is there skidoo's were not turboed, other then that you can only imagine what they were actually running.

Yeah, but can anybody that asks for that setup get it? Or are they just reserved for the "special" people?
Yeah, and they're asking $300 more than retail for those fancy, special-people sleds right, Dbook!!!!??
It's just not fair.
LOL

You are correct,,, They didn't have any Turbo's,,, They also didn't have any Nitros either... How do they do that...???
Don't want a used, thrashed sled. I want my sled, that way I know that it is setup for me and NOBODY else.
Can't anyone give a straight answer without steering around it like a politician being asked about his 20yr old intern.
Crap, I even asked about getting a referral so I wouldn't get the "We'll get to when we get to it" response.
Later
no clutch for you!!!
Felker | Fairview Sleds
PJ,
I've sent a couple of referrals over their way, and each has been happy with the work, as well as the staff.
Its a typical mod shop - if you want something for cheap-to-free, or all of their experience just for the asking, then it's not the place for ya.
You can build the same sleds that were run at Fairview with a little research and a lot of time and coin.
Tim & Chad's sleds are always very maintained as good as new - definately not thrashed.
That's why they fetch top dollar once proven and the bugs worked out.
Good luck.

The XP I saw run last year at the silverton drags was running some juice to beat the turbo's.I really think they sprayed right off the line and most of the way. No doubt about it. Second year in a row I saw Lynn (leather helmet and all) take down some turbos. No mistake about it, those were not stock XP's. I saw him beat Kenny Lloyd's 07 REV with lots of spray ( this sled is always in top 3 at any drag) 2 out of three races. But again, both had JUICE. Fastest turbo that day was gaining on Lynn on second half of drags but ran out of room each time. Probably 2 sleds difference in the 660ft. I ride a turbo dragon and race snocross on a 09 IQR, have attended many races and drags. NEVER have I seen a sled come off the line like Lynn's red and white XP last year. Absolute rocket, Nothing could touch it!!!!!
Don;t know if this info will help anyone but I would put my confidence in thier setup.

You seem to think you know what Lynn had in this white sled.. We call it Whitey.. But you are WRONG.. You saw it race.. It is very fast.. But that's what Lynn is all about,,,, I watched the sled being built.. I rode with it on an all day ride at the RANGE.... You could have bought it... They sold it a few weeks ago.. You are wrong... NO SPRAY,, No Nitrous, No turbo.. It ran in the improved class. Go ask the tech guy at that race.. Maybe you need to have Lynn build one for you... Lynn has never built a sled with JUICE. Ditch the turbo..
That is pretty impressive if that is true. No, I don't need Lynn to build one for me. I never said I raced my turbo against it but I did see it beat a couple of sleds with turbo and likewise he beat some that were on juice. All of which ran in the "improved" class. If what you say is spot on, and I;m not saying it isn't ( just stating what I saw)...Lynn figured out how to make an XP with no juice and no turbo beat the absolute fastest sleds in this area. Like I mentioned before, Kenny Lloyds 07 Rev is a top three sled in every drag he shows up to and Lynn beat him 2 out of 3 in the finals. I am all but positive the Lloyd sled had juice as he is a local.
So if it has no turbo and I am 100% sure it didn't where did all the performence come from? Is it a Big bore? Is it the happy juice(apparantly not)? I mean that sled is mean as hell so please nobody mistake my comments for bashing Lynn at Felker's. Whitey as it was called was hands down the fastest XP I have seen.
I am not a clutching genious by any standard. That being said I have been tuning a while now and have seen the value of a great clutch setup. This can make a sled night and day. So, to get back on topic. If Felkers clutch setup made Whitey run like that. All of us need one. Like tomorrow.
That setup made a 10 sled length difference over a stock XP 154" in the 660 foot drag. I know this for a fact as I ran a stocker against him in the improved class when after paying an entry I was never put on the bracket, so they allowed me to run in the improved. Was a quick two losses and out.
For who I am replying to the quote... If you have insight on what that beast was made of please shed some light. Extremely impressive sled, like I said, not bashing now just curious. Thanks

I know you will not believe this... I don't know all of Lynn's secrets.. But I do know that whitey isn't a big bore.. Stock pipe,, with HPS can.. The engine has been ported... Other little things.. But all put together,, works very well.. They call me The King of Shmo's Swear to God..
Lynn wasnt even at silverton so you have Lynn confused with someone else.
Whitey was indeed there and has no juice on it.. He has consistenly won the races down there with out turbo's or the "juice". He won Open mod on a black rev last year that didnt have a turbo or juice, against turbos, triples and twins on the juice.
