looks like the poo was quikest out of the hole, the doo sure did put down some mean numbers, surprised the cat wasn't right there or beyond...

 

[IQ?]

Cant really remember but can anyone post the times
From -2000 i think the yamaha srx pulled just abot the same times...
Talking of progress
It really sucked that they werent allowed to run the RUSH8 with The
Non eth plug+5-6hp.
I think poo got screwed big time there.

 

[Jaynelson]

Are these runs on a 1/4 mile?

 

[snopro_ac]

looks like the ski doo pulled some good numbers

 

[2strokes_are_awesome]

I'd say that looks about right. ^^I agree that they should've run the non-e plug. 5% less fuel and a degree of timing makes a pretty big difference.

YES

all the sleds were run with 10% ethanol fuel, then it's only fair that they be operated in the manufacturer's setting for safe operation using that fuel.

Kraven, what kinda secondary clutch is on the new poo's?

 

[harrysmith500]

Yeah poo got a disadvantage in this case for sure with the detune of the deathanol plug, that's right it's Now called deathanol.

I thought it was P-2 on the 600

TEAM TSS04 on the 800

[alsled]

Thats half the problem if its on the 800.
