We went up Bell yesterday. Snowed about 6 inches of heavy and the wind was blowing so tracks got filled in almost instantly. Kids burned all their fuel. 3 tanks through the Animal.

Tchetek, is that the Big Boy kit in the ZR120 ? If so, is it worth it ?

It’s an LO206 animal go cart race engine. And all the speed kit stuff with a shock.

No it’s not worth it! Buy a 200! I Must have got distracted by the helpers while doing an oil change. Drain plug fell out of the stock motor. So it got the animal.

But it is fast, and it out climbed the 200 yesterday. 48km ish on the trail.

I’ll see if I can get them to race up little Bell today. Blue bird!

200 takes the hole shot but then gets stomped! It really tuckers out on the steeps. Track is spinning but could use more Rpm.

I guess I should start with jets as it’s probably Jetted for sea level from stock. Anyone have one crisped up?

Full pin attack at this hill. He kept backing up farther for a longer run in. Bouncing off the rev limiter.

Shortly later the animal ate all the teeth off the drive sprocket on the clutch. Lol. So it will sit out today!

Three of us headed to McBride for Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
Hopefully a bit of snow coming.
Last trip for this year, work getting in the way of a good time for the next couple of weeks.
Then time for turkey hunting with daughter again.

Have a good trip. We didn’t get to meet up, I currently do not have a sled, so hopefully next winter.

Trail up bell was great last week. The road up was a rodeo our first day as it was warm, soft, and greasy. Be ready if your pulling a big trailer. Fawkn duallys spinning out blocking the road multiple days!

Snow right from the main parking lot at Lucille this past weekend, and grooming was on par Saturday night! Toboggans were in the cabin but did not see a specific ‘track’ you speak of…

Im good Ron just rollin good at work, familys great, ridings been great this year.life is good!!! you?
Had my season cut short with heath issue, hopefully can ride for next season. Seeing all these condition threads and pics is tough. Only had 2 days in this year, they were both sweet though. Have to get together next season. Still getting ready to start construction in Vale though.

Keep posting the conditions guys, didnt mean to derail thread any.
