Spokane Area Riders Snow Report for E. Washington N Idaho & W. Montana post 28,869

[Ragged]

those were official words that came out of Ragged for the record

THOSE ARE ALL LIES!! LIES I TELL YOU!!

There saying that cuz the Dragon was shreddin the nar and trading marks with the Turbo Nitros...

I got on a XP simply to see if it was the ridder or the sled that was keeping them from being cometitive...and I ripped right over the top!! So it must have been the ridders..

all kidding aside...The XP's ran well...TT's was finely tuned like I would have expected and put up the marks for the naturally aspirated sleds..Silver Griz was right there with him and even Sandman's REV and another REV and I seemed to find the RPM's falling off at the very end of the climb and having to turn out...arr...Steve and Sandman seemed to thing it needs a stiffer secondary spring so I'll be picking that up Tuesday and testing Saturday!!

But it was turbo snow...and Sawyers and Reese's TNitros flat out ripped the hills up...Reese made a big climb and almost had it.... but at the top the trees got tight and he went left instead of right..lol...AWSOME PULL..20ft from topping out....

Sawyers sled ain't just looks that thing is FAST!! WOW!! He let me take it for a spin and you CAN NOT just pin into it and hold it..the front end just gets higher and highter...Now if they could just squeeze that power in to the Dragon chassie...

AWSOME DAY AWSOME SOFT POWDER AND AWSOME COMPANY!! Thanks Guys!! Cant wait to do it again soon!!

Here is a link to a few of my picks...

That looks pretty sweet. How does the 406 chute look Sawyer?
Looking at the BC thread, Revy looks awesome. Anyone up for a road trip?

Thanks for the ride guys! TJ, Griz, Sawyer, Ragged it was nice meeting ya! You were great tour guides. It's always fun to see new country,thanks for sharing it with us. TJ, sorry again for takin' your sled under that cornice! I wasn't worried about any of those breaking but a guy should only do that on his own sled! That XP ripped man! Did you guys stick around and watch the UFC fight and soak up some of that atmosphere?

TJ so what your saying is now that i have reached a max capacity wieght at over 200 pounds, That my Rev just lost it's fun factor till i drop it below that mark????

 

[WFO or go home]

All I see are red X's griz.

Anybody know how to fix that?

 

[Flit8.0]

Well, if that's the case, I'm pooched 'till I've been in the grave for 2 years.
Just a couple of more things to go on the boy's ZX and she'll be done. Then maybe I can get to bed at a descent time.

 

[Ragged]

Nice pics Ragged!

No the XP is still a ball and meets all my expectations but it does even better with a good light rider on it...

BB is going to eat me up and sorry two stroke guys but a turbo nitro is the only turbo in my book. Rode WFO's and it's very simular to the XP rider style, easy to handle, if I spent about 10 minutes on it I could tell I would be 100% comfortable and ready to point it up....of coarse the power is out of the world, that's a now brainer....I was much more impressesd with WFO's nitro than the M8's with 14lbs of boost, plus I like the handle much more than the M8. Very very nice sled....A Nitro on boost and XP would look good setting on top of my 1987 junker chevy

Rags can you email me those pics??? Thanks, steveandbrook@hotmail.com

 

[xrated]

dang it all anyways but that looks GOOD!!!!!! How far into 406 land was that?

Well even if you guys get no new snow, the past 2 days of 30 plus have my drive to Rochester showing lots of brown fields and SNIRT for you old flat landers.

As I tell my oldest, only 2 more sleeps and we are in the PNW.....worried though, the wifes grandma hasn't found Oly yet in Portland.

 

[NITROSKIDUDE]

Well I am in if anyone is headin that way during the week, Them thar hills look like they could strech the legs of the T-Pex.

So us heavier guys on an 800 couldn't just go straight up and out, or was it a side hillin kind of day for the most part.??

 

[xrated]

Rags, you gonna be teaching side hilling 101 next week?

 

[JOP]

Nice Pics!

 

[motomikey]

i'm in love

project rt/gen II handles like a gen II with thousand dollar shocks and a holz suspension and runs like an rt 1000 motor in a 400 lb. sled--whats not to like? pics as soon as i can get them--maybe in the morning----does need more track tho --whats the camo upgrade from a 153 panic 20? and does anyone have one they want to sell?
