There was a thread about this in mtn deep but the poster deleted it. There was some real good comments in there. For those that may of missed it there was a pic of the top 3 sled builders sleds layed out with key points of the chassis marked out for comparison. I think it clearly shows AC and Poo are on the right track.
Your opinions on last months mountain sled geometry comp pic?

I agree, the XP is a lot of hype, in fact, I think the Rev was a better sled, I think we will see Doo following Polaris's lead and Cat continuing to refine
I really hope the 430 pound Pro holds up, I hope to see a 420 pound 170 HP M8 next year

no offence but how much more can an M-series refine? I think cat is in line for a new chassis! They will probably keep their same power plant though for 2012.
maybe refine wasn't the right word, I was referring to the direction they are going with mountain sleds, I suspect a new chassis in 2012 as well, just hope they don't believe the rider forward snowplow hype

It was good to see Snowest publish something of technical substance last issue. I am not sure how much the whole sled diagram helped but (here I go again with another complement) the technical explanations in the text made perfect since. Not only is the industry making strides so is Snowest
….though I hate to say it.
For those of you not getting your paid subscriptions the only solution I have found to work is to stop paying your subscription and then you get every issue without delay….go figure

Not sure why the nytro would be in there, they were just posting pics of MOUNTAIN sleds.
I can honestly say I am glad that the XP came out. It has set the weight benchmark and is making the competition be more competitive. These factory built sleds are insane fantastic machines. Back up just 5 years ago and look at the mod build you would have to do to get his HP and weights!
