LOL! So true

It has different fox shox with titanium springs, and are gas charged up front. Fox floats in the rear and has 18in of rear travel. High compression heads for alittle more power. 42 to 45in stance for more control at faster speeds. A lighter hood, and a Boss seat. Also has a harder compound track that diggs. 457lbs dry. Its by far the most aggressive factory sled to date.

It is boring................. needs a longer track and a better decal kit.........

High compression heads for alittle more powerNOT! Same engine as the standard M). 42 to 45in stance for more control at faster speeds. A lighter hood(same HOOD as the standard M), and a Boss seat(same BOSS seat as the LE and SP Snow Check). Also has a harder compound track that diggs. 457lbs dry. Its by far the most aggressive factory sled to date.

About half right!

pretty sure the front shocks are 19"ctc, 17.5 is the M shock length. 17.5's with a 43" front end puts the bumper on the ground!!

width is 42-44", 43" center compared to 40" on an M.


it also has a harder duro track that the M, not my favorite so far.

I totally agree. The 153" tracks suck IMO. The decals could also use some work

The question is "what is an HCR"?

I wasnt saying that other models in the line dont have those components, just stating what components it does have. I went to a few hillclimbs and looked them over pretty well. I thought the hood was lighter becouse all of the racers had them gutted. I thought I had read somewhere that it had higher compression heads, to make alittle more power guess im wrong. My bad. I must say that the retro looking graphics on the 2010 looks like crap.

I run the standard M shocks with crossfire/HCR Arms and I lost 7/8" of ground clearance over a standard M.

So am I wrong then? Are the shocks 17.5? We put a set of 17.5's on a CF & it looked downright silly. I also tried to run 17.5's on my racer & it sat really low.

No, not saying your wrong, I'm pretty sure they are 17.55 center to center. It's lower but I kinda like it.
