One thing I have said for many years is that I didn't think a snowmobile manufacture could beat the 1160 by 2020. I still don't. Having said that I'm a 90s hill climber. I don't pretend to ride like Burandt. But I doubt this T850 could out climb the wedge. I'm geared for 88 mph and it pulls it at elevation and If I was a bettin guy this turbo is geared for 45 mph.

How about you bring the WEDGE to mountain mania this weekend and you and Maxwell can have a challenge? I'll even buy you the ticket to get into the event.

Hope turbo Tiffany knows you’re going for a ladyboy buffet for 35 days.

In them hills.
Looking at the P/N of that track. Its the same P/N at the powder max light
Well that's unfortunate if it is.
Guys can't ride over 60km/hr on the trail without them coming unglued. How do they expect this track to hold up on a turbo sled?

Get a load of this guy. He can hit 88 mph and go back to the future. Maybe he will learn something when he comes back. Really don’t think that 175 horse power at 5000 feet will net you enough to deal with the new chassis. I know that modified wedge chassis was the tits in 2002, but come on. Just bring that buggy out to the hills some day. At least kanedog backs up his show.

It’s Bikeman !!
Would someone actually trust doing this to a $23000 sled ?

Edit ;
I see people taking a $100000 truck and doing it so ........
What am I thinking !!
