I rode Skadi's buggy last night.....

[Scott]

CrazyRed and I went along for a little tuning on Skadi's new intake assisted ProRMK.

Honestly...this things spools up FAST. REALLY FAST!!!!!!!!!













It was a fun evening...however we unfortunately ran into a tragedy sitation on the way home. See the "texting while driving" thread in Fouled Plug

 

[Skadi]

Heard about the accident... bummer deal Scott...

SOOO jealous that you punks got to ride my ole girl before I did!!! I hope you didn't go easy on her cause you KNOW I won't!!!!!

SOOOO can't wait to ride that machine, spools up fast eh? Ohhhh she's gonna be fun in the trees!!! I can't wait to get her back in my hands and work on completing the build!! I know i have a bit of a ways to go yet but I think I'm off to a KILLER start!!!!!

 

[Scott]

It's off to a GREAT start. Yes it is. In the trees, I think you will like it as well as an open hillside.

My dad, CrazyRed on here, is 63. We couldn't wipe the smile off his face.
He wants one. That's all he talks about since the last two Pros he's ridden were boosted.

He's BEEN talking about selling his sled and getting out of it. Uhhhhh, I don't think so, Red.

 

[Scott]

Me.

Me.

Me.

CrazyRed (my 63 year old Dad) gettin his turn.

Before the hill thrashing began....

Backside of the Bitterroots. The first one is looking straight East to Lolo Peak.

 

[Scott]

Grandpas can like turbos too.

Back to the trailer to do a little tuning.

 

[slash]

what happend to his hawian shirt ?

 

[Scott]

I dunno....I'm guessing that's just on race day. LOL

 

[slash]

dident see him at jackson this year , shop keepin him to busy ?

 

[Scott]

Dunno. Could be.
Was he listed in the season points race?

 

[Spaarky]

Your dad got his hands in his pants to cover up the big chubb he has from riding the turbo?

I think the pic with the big smile says it all!

 

[Sunridge Sledhead]

Bruuuuuuce!!!!!

 

[Scott]

Bruuuuuuce!!!!!

HAHA

 

[CoyoteGirl]

Em, you are handling this sooooooo much better than I would! I'd be whiney little snot right about now!

She sounds dead sexy lady.... can NOT wait to see her in person!!!

Scott, that is pretty stinking cool that you get to ride with your dad!

 

[Scott]

Brandy, He's my main riding partner. We first rode together in 1976. I was 4.

Hasn't she gotten her hands on her sled yet? I thought she was getting it yesterday.

 

[Skadi]

Shane wanted to do a little more tuning on it and because of the accident you guys missed getting it to lyle who was going to deliver it... so now D and i are going to head over on Sat and pick it up. Then we get to spend a day riding with the master anyway which will be WAY good and he can give me a carsh course in tuning and what not.

yeah, I'm not handling it very well. i keep sneaking back to the vids scott made and play them while I SHOULD be focusing on work! it's killin me but I have GOT to cover the day job. Can't buy a turbo if you can't hold down a job cause you're day dreaming about riding the dern thing!!

But ya, this weekend is gonna be TONS of giggles!!! i was kinda burned out on riding cause it's been such a long winter for me with the house and everything... ummm, not anymore!!! i'm ready to GO!!!! Already have the first chute climbing weekend scheduled and am working on schedulin a few others!! Cash flow is low this late in the year so i can't go ALL the places i want but boy oh boy I'm gonna have fun on this bad boy!!!!!

 

[Scott]

Gotcha.
Yeah, just a little tuning will be perfect.
I think he had it pretty close though.

It had a couple hiccups cause it was building boost so fast, but it was running well.

There is NO lag, that's for sure.
I learned quickly that I didn't have to feather the throttle at all, like I have on other 2 stroke turbo sleds I've ridden. You throttle it almost the same as a normally aspirated sled.

BTW, I'm not doing anything Saturday.

 

[CoyoteGirl]

BTW, I'm not doing anything Saturday.

BWAHAHAHA this is pretty close to sounding like a "how you doin'?".

 

[Scott]

Emily, I can tell you're in here again watching those vids again right now, aren't you?

LOL
