They have smaller drivers up front due to the taller track. Last year I swapped out the drivers on a 2018 to one larger and we put the Storm track on which is 1.5 in the middle.(not a fan of that track)
We were north of Cochrane in March and the sleds best speed was 108 GPS in good conditions.
All else stock.

At least your speedometer is some what accurate...with that track and sled all stock, you will have a hard time hitting over 160kmph on the GPS even on ice.

I think you are right, both clutches fully shifted out by witness marks. Run out of gearing - Maybe if I get my rpm's up another 4-500 might get a little more out of it.U won't get over 100mph out of it GPS with the small 7 tooth drivers.

Update: Dialed in the clutches to shift @ 10,600 pulls 159kph gps now. Still had some overrev rpm's climbing so it still has a bit more.
