Unless I missed a inside joke, Snochuk said after all the weighins theres a new fat kid. I didnt want to read the whole thread, if we are talking two stroke mtn sleds I was wondering what the real world weights are.

I did find out the doos dry weight is not dry, it includes all fluids except gas.

No inside joke other than NOBODY has put all three two smokers side by side to weigh in with the same amount of fuel in each tank for a real weigh in.
Full tanks and we can subtract weight for the bigger tank sleds or be what it is. I'd rather have biggest tank anyways.

Blows me away with all the bitching about weight that there is no equal weigh in ever done.

I'll put my stock can back on and show up at a shop with a full tank.
Get a 165 Doo and a 163 Poo all 3" fully stock full of oil and let's drink some beer on a Sunday. A Summit X an Alpha and a RMK PRO.
Who's shop in or close to Edmonton.
Could make it a yearly.......I'll buy the beverages, yearly.
Then maybe put this daunting delema to bed.


For next year I could go to trophy shop for a FAT KID OF THE YEAR award?????
lol

Not kidding about the brews and weigh in part.

Somebody with a shop, scale and a garbage can for empties please speak up cause it's just bathroom scales at my house!
Left over brews go to shop owner.

Maybe a said Poo shop as it (Poo) will be the lightest and then somebody there could sell turbos to the fat kids?????

Will donate to the cause:

19 G4 165x3” with a few nick Nacks on it...I propose a location in or near the GBCA for this weigh off. Have a turbo Axys beside it if you wanna throw that in vs other kits out there on the same sled...

Nice! So when does this weight off take place? Beer, sleds, and scales. I recommend a vid of the “weigh off” to capture the little moments and upload it here for our entertainment.

We can deduct the weight difference, I’m not pulling the riser and the rail stiffeners off etc...wrap stays too!!! Lmao.

Ready to ride weights or equal amounts of gas blah blah blah. You guys decide the particulars. Yeah I’m down so someone organize this thing. Can use the shop in Spruce for a location one evening, full tanks of gas and oil/fluids. Yep sure fireball 100%!!!!

Let’s pick a night during the week and get it done boys and girls! Can use my shop in Spruce.

What we need:

Digital scale
Alpha 160-whatever x 3”
Axys 850 160-whatever x 3”

Statistics on each machine, fuel oil and coolant volumes.


Let me know who’s in or who’s got a better idea.

I know where there's 2 bone stock G4's just a couple blocks from your shop.I'm sure we could convince the owner to bring one down for a weigh off. Especially if there's beer involved. Snochuk can bring his Alpha.We need a poolaris...

If my Axys 850 had arrived I’d bring it straight from the crate however I’m told it’s going to be a few more weeks.

Let me know when this is going down cause if nothing else I like BS and beer!!!
