Well stock sleds are supposed to be availble to consumers and they havent been so yeah they were cheating. Not exactly whining.
NEW 2024 SUMMIT HCE just announced

You said it yourself that Doo got disqualified by breaking the rules so why would a Pro rider want to ride Doo and suffer the same fate? Now Doo is following the rules they might have a better chance of attracting better riders. Not a new sled but newly accepted sled.

Because they still made it work on rental and borrowed sleds at Jackson. The riders didn’t change, they made it work.
The other manufacturers must of got nervous with a Doo suspension that had tweaks, not like its aftermarket full suspension like the mod sleds that poo uses.

I guess we will see in 2024, no more whining and no more excuses for losing. Let the best sled/rider combo win. If the sleds are now more equal we should no longer see one manufacture dominate as each brand has several different riders in many classes.

They got caught trying to cheat. Two kinds of people, cheaters and losers, when it comes to competitive sports. Still not going to beat Keith curtis. Mathews and mentaberry get something in on him once in a while but not very often.
If they weren't or doing something they weren't supposed to, why did they get shut down? Polaris isn’t using ez ryde in stock classes. Add on, even though they make it, is different than what they come with stock.
Just because its available at all doesnt mean its legal for stock class.
Its literally the equivalent of an aftermarket skid.
No one uses ez ryde anymore, its all about the glyde in the open class(where you can change skids).
If you guys want to take a look at it we have one for sale.

Ski-Doo didn’t build enough HCE sleds to allow them to compete in the stock classes.
True the suspension has been ran in the mod classes for a few years.
RMSHA runs under ISR Rules. BRP did not comply and ISR ruled accordingly.
If they were allowed to run with their small build, could you imagine what kind of response other manufactures would build? Stock classes would turn into a factory rider mod class. John Q could not compete with a consumer sled.
Great call on ISRs part.
Look at the big picture.

Right. A little birdie told me that once the Ski-Doo ruling came down there was a stink raised about P85s being used on sleds that came with P22s. Clutch pullers came out though before the inspector could make the rounds!
If that is true, that is good. Nobody should be cheating. I don't think the P22 hurt the Polaris team's final results. ?

Not everyone enjoys a sled that does Instagram wheelies. Stock rear suspension has way to much transfer, and the shocks need to be recalibrated and resprung but some will complain that the suspension is too stiff. It’s a personal preference.
Doo did a good thing eliminating the tmotion this year.

Poos and doos both climb very well and the rmsha races mostly come down to Keith Curtis being the best in the world.
G5’s are so fun to ride. I’m not much of a meadow rider or a wide open hill rider but my 165 turbo would flip over on a dime with minimal effort which is a very useful trick when a tree line closes out. You should really ride a g5 for 10 rides before doing any work. I got 50 rides in and I know what needs done now for my 24.
