Ski-Doo and lynx rev engines at Jackson Hole Hill CLimb but the track doesn't spin?

[Ianpilling]

I was at the Jackson Hole Hill climb and noticed that riders on BRP engines (Ski-doo and Lynx) would push a button or pull in the brake and rev the engine to warm it up but the track wouldn't spin or even want to spin. It also made a weird rev limiter sound that sounded pretty choppy. Does anyone know how what this is?

It’s a two step system just like on the 22 Mach Z. It can also build boost for quick starts. The one I’ve been close to used the shot/reverse button held down.

Its not to build boost or do launch control on the hillclimb sleds. It is simply a warmup button like the RS. Unlike the RS, the mountain sleds still have reverse so the brake and reverse/shot button are held at the same time. The theory is to build heat in the pipe without putting excessive heat in the motor. Hot pipe/cold motor is the goal.

How did the lynx do?

It's not how lynx did at Jackson. It's how did the rider do. I looked at the new lynx and doos. Really narrow on clutch side and so so on exhaust side. If you liked them before you should love them now.

Correct, what I meant was how did Jason Ribi do on the Lynx?

The procedure is hold reverse button and brake at the same time. It adds fuel to warm up the pipe quickly for performance.

He was way down the line. Seems like 8 or 9th in a class and 13th or 15th in another. Pretty decent for a part timer competing against full timers.
