Has anyone raced an 800r?

[scott8888]

Some people are trail racers some like the boring lakes where you can just sit there and give it gas forr 660' and be done. The 800r or Nytro werent meant for this and they should be taken to the bonbed out trail where they belong. Now thats a race varying conditions tight turns and bumps. You dont need a new 10,000 sled to go fast you could go just as fast if not faster on a modded older sled. This whole drag race thing is just to me very boring to me and not what these 2 were designed for. Obviously the Nytro would eat an 800R in the junk the thing will fall apart!

lets not trun this into a bashing thread this is about a drag raceing and the hard core guys who like to go fast

If you consider hardcore going down and back on a lake your definition of hardcore it is very much wrong. Hardcore riders just love to ride in anything bumps,ditches,water, the occasional mud crossing. This 660,1000 ft thing is just borind. What the hell do you even need suspension for if thats what you ride?

Who are you to decide what "hardcore" is? If that's what he thinks "hardcore" is, that's his opinion. If you think it's boring, that's your opinion; he is not "wrong". Furthermore, some lake racers are running 300+ hp and doing over 130 mph. That's plenty "hardcore".

660'

None of you know why they satrted the 660'????

Becuase when the manufacturers dropped the triples....all the *NEW* awsome powerful, torquey twins were getting their asses whopped by 5 year old tripples.
A twin cannot run with a Tripple in the 1/4.
How does that make these new twins look????. How can you hype *New Twin Technology* in advertising when they don't win any races.

So...what to do??? Change the distance run. Give the advantage back to the Twin. Shorten the race so that Torque wins.
All the new Twins are winning races now and the manufacturers are happy.
What wins on sunday sells on monday....right?

Been reading this thread and was ready to inject some, uh-hum, moderating. Nice to see that I DIDN"T have to. Thanks for seeing the importance of what MrSled and the management team are trying to maintain. DEBATE is a wonderful thing, LOL. As long as we keep it there, this will continue to be one of the most respected info sites on the Web. Thanks again guys

Thanks!

I can see your angle on the 660' but don't follow sled racing enough to know how much smoke you're blowing!

Yep, figured there was a hole in that theory.

he dose have a point the twins did have a advantage in a short race over the triples

i think it kind of opposite to day i think the HIGH HP 2 stroke have a disadvantage in a short race compare to the high TQ 4 stroke
