Hey 1xr - I have a 23 in it, yes. I ran the 10.998 with green springs with the stock airbox. The red springs from Holtzman work great with the K&N setup. The stock setup, allowed a little slower take off, compared to the K&N setup, which made it soo responsive, which made me spin a little more off the line. I like the setup, and can say they make it rev a little faster than the stock airbox with the green springs, which also made a big difference. I bought the kit from RX Warrior, and he said they really improved his sled a bunch, but sold them cause of his turbo setup. I guess I am leaving it up to you,bud, they are an expensive set up. But for those who have them, the red springs from holtzman is the way to go for the K&N setup. Wish I had better #'s for you. I wish I could have tried the stock airbox, with the nitrous, but had to make room for the bottle, and that is where I mounted it.

Thanks Matt - I will be tearing down this week, so you and Ryan, can expect me giving you a call sometime soon, to bring back the parts I used. Thanks guys!

Hey Guys, I can't believe I am saying this, but I have been invited to show up at Great Lakes Dragway for an Illlinois chapter grass drag. They said Snoweek will be there doing some articles on all types of racing sleds, asphalt and grass. Hope it is nice out, for some good times.

Hey Guys - This is what I am going to be using at the track from now on. No more picking up the beast, and trying to find the stand. I picked up a really nice stand at the Snow Show in Green Bay today, It's stainless steel, very strong, and can be adjusted by sliding the strap in or out, for whatever sled you have. I bought this one, cause my aluminum one bent over, ticked me off! I stumbled upon this one, and had to have it. Also has a slightly smaller shield for cleaning the track, but they have a fully enclosed one for all you racers out there. Finish and assembly are great, and it will stay that way, using all stainless fasteners. They have them at the show for $50 bucks, (regular stand that you have to lift it up to), or you can get the handle with the strap for $25 extra, (the one pictured). They have the fully enclosed one for a little more, but I didn't need that one. You can also find them at www.sledmover.com
P.S. check out there stainless dollies also, they are the only ones that will accept the duel runner carbides, and the wide skis with the carbides 4-5 inches apart. NICE STUFF!!!
Tell Todd Pinkerman that NOS-PRO from Totallyamaha told you to give them a call.

Hey everyone - I thought I would tell everybody, that I went trail riding in Hurley, Wis. on Sat. Dec. 13th. I took the K&N's off from asphalt, and put the stock airbox back on with 142.5 main jetting, and the rest stock. I put the green springs in, and never changed anything for clutching. THIS THING IS A ROCKET!!! I have the 1.25 track on it now, and this setup works great! Just FYI, kept same clutching from asphalt to snow. Some people were asking this question, so I would reply.

P.S. Trails were awesome also!

Hey Everybody - (FYI) Had a great year for 2003, on asphalt, and will be setting the RX1 and the SXR700 up for asphalt this year, if everything goes well with the Whal suspension set up. Let me know your ideas and thoughts on both, trying to get both in the 9's this year. Also, will be starting a new 2004 asphalt results post.

 

[Buster696]

NOS, I'll be right there with you (only in NY... :lol: ). I'm putting the Warrior on the tar this year and it should be fun. I had a blast last year with the SRX. When I get my new Whal/Proline we can share 'high-level super-secret rear-skid tips’... :wink:

[NOS-PRO]

Sounds good Buster! I want to come out your way, to some race tracks.

 

[2xcelr8]

Terry, when you need to get that extra 10th of a sec, I'll be more than happy to run it for ya!!

 

[pro116]

parts

Terry I have parts if you need to borrow again I have extra suspensions and seats if you want to gut them out to save alittle weight.Maybe I can come down more this year and give you a hand.

 

[NOS-PRO]

2xcelr8 - You got it man!

Pro116 - Sounds great Ryan, I might have to bother you for the suspension again, unless this Whal suspension works.

Tom, Bill, Ryan, and Matt need to take er' for a rip down the track.

suspension

We should try to hack up one of my srx suspensions to run a 10 and 5/8 track.

Hey Ryan - I know Jeff was going to make a kit for an RX1. See if he wants to use my sled as a mock-up.
