Who wins this race and has anyone raced one?Over on hardcore that's all they say is the fst switchback kicks and apex all the time.I have different results.I never see a fst at any drag racing anywhere if they are so fast then why aren't they racing?
 

The 09's have a 4 second 177 horse shot. After 4 sec. you have to let off the throttle and then immediately get back on to 177 hp. I think that the '08's could be reflashed to get this. If this 177 horse talk is true, I think an Apex would be in big trouble.
 
I think the 09s have a 4 second shot of 150hp and then they go back down to 130hp or so. At the end of the day they are trying to get more power out of a 750cc and this motor has not had good consistant running in the Snowmobile or in the PWC that it was originally used in.
 
one of my best friends has a 07 fst short track,he has done a little clutch work on it and it will stay ahead of most anything til around 80-90 but not much on top,i can just play with him after that with my 06rtx,im no polaris guy but i will say that this thing does come out of the hole very well,alternator trouble had him down two weeks where as the yammi had no troubles but we're not talking about that lmao,my rtx in front ,his 07 turbo and kellys vector

no problem from beginning to end. After two sled lenghts ya can't see um any more. very easy win rolling or from stop.
 
Wow everyone has different information on the over-boost feature the FST's use. They allow overboost up to 150 h.p. for the first four seconds, and then back down to the 140 h.p. base that the turbo engine produces. In the right hands and with proper setup, these sleds are quick out of the hole and can be very fast on top end as well. That engine is no slouch.

Thanks for clarifying that for me.
