Holy phuk one cold start and improper warm-up shouldn't seize a brand new sled. Maybe he didn't warm it up to full operating temp either but I bet it wasn't full cold. I think the doo fan boys have VES gold in their brains.

In them hills.
There is absolutely no reason leaving that sled out in the snow should have killed it.

I wonder if he is taking it to banner, we all know how they like working on that out of town ch!t lol.

except unlike him im not wrong. the boost isn't faster than the skidoo
Maybe not the one you rode. Who knows I have seen videos and some seem to rip and others not so much. Kinda interesting. Maybe break in mode?

They do rip. im not saying they dont. Just not 180hp Rip lol. That or skidoo is making more than 165.

also,i think a good rider makes all the difference as far as video goes. A good rider can make a sled look like it has more HP all day long

You don’t see the side by side hill climbing comparisons anymore. I remember 15 years ago that’s all we did. Now it’s all tree stuff and tricks
As soon as Dave and I get both we will be lining them up repeatedly.
Dawizman will be requested for camera duties again.
Last time was not kind to the doo, beatin by a fat Cat.
We'll see how it goes this time.
His doo slated mid Feb though, but there are other Doo Ts in our group.
We're both to old for trick riding.

Sounds like it is going to be a fun Spring!

I bet Polaris is cutting him a cheaque right now to leave that thing at the dealership.


that is the only move in their playbook. Hire all the most well known riders so everyone will want to ride their product which allows them to still make garbage. Seems to work quite well. Maybe CAT should try that.

thats because an uphill drag race is a very poor performance indicator for what these sleds are designed for now a days
