105 M.P.H. 08 Nytro rtx. What are your numbers?

Got 103 today with 96 studs on nice hard packed snow, but I am 135pounds though.
 

Does the medium windshield really give your more top end versus the small little flyscreen I have on my 08 RTX? Father has same sled with medium shield and his sled is a couple mph faster. Is it the windshield or just difference in motor? Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

Swap hoods for a run and you'll see you'll be faster with the med sheild.... I run the med sheild, end of season did a swap to the stock low sheild and guess what...slower!

I thought I asked you this last year and I swore you said there was no change in mph?
 
111mph on speedo, it was -25 degrees celcius and it was like an inch of hard pack then ice below. last year my speedo was reading 2-3 km high from 2 different radars
 
Did 107mph today on the Groomed trail. Probably had 1-2 more mph in it, if I would have tried.. Conditions were a little soft. I got off the sled and I could push around 2-3" of snow off the top.. Cold though, -22C.. I got frost bite on under my chin today... Looks like I got 2 chins now...
 
111 mph today on solid ice with just about a 1/2" of snow on top. Blew the little extra wheels I put on to help slide wear completely apart.
 
I clicked off 98 mph this last Friday. Iced road with and inch or so of fresh snow on top. Still had a little more but ran out of room.

maybe your right, I dont remember
 
Saw 110 MPH "Speedo" this weekend with drag and flys. Not a super long run either Maybe 1500 feet. I'm really impressed I posted last year on this post i went 106 with the drag and flys but i was mistaken that 106 was with stock clutching. I never saw more then 102 with the drag and flys. My setup is no where perfect yet. I need to fine tune my setup. But 110 for drag and flys is pretty sweet. this thing pulls like a freight train from a 30 plus roll. To much power and to stiff a skid to run from a stop. It just blows the track off.

I talked to a few other people and they said the same thing, that the mid windshield is good for 2-3 more mph on top end..
