Mach Z not stock king of the lake.

The guys on DooTalk were brutal that year we bought our Winders. They made up so many stories about what turds the Winders were and how slow they were. It was very similar to what the guys here are saying about the 900r.
What really doesn't make sense is probably 90% of the Winder owners here are running 240-270 HP tunes and they get all upset when I post that the 900r will run with and out accelerate a stock Winder. What do they know? None of them own stock Winders. The 900r has no chance against their tuned Winders.

Not a chance the 900R runs with a stock TCAT or SRX. The video's are out there... Its not even close.
 

I was on the 17 Tcat
Bright light
This is at least 1320
850 doo
My poo also smokes the doo
 
the guys with the 850 said there was no way that sled would beat them
Spur of the moment deal
It was fun.
Like I said stock 998 isn’t overly impressive
The argument is yea you can tune for more power

I'm not on a Mach. Can't speak for them.
I like to roll up to people & give them a fist bump. That requires me to swing my left hand over to not let off throttle while steering with one hand.
Most guys at 80 plus actually Freak Out a bit. Sometimes i crack my back doing it................WIN WIN
Then i nod & give them the hit to go.

This happened 100's of times this year if not more. Somewhere between 30 to 80mph
I ALWAYS got ahead.
If there was no snow dust & trail was SAFE & STRAIGHT only the Winders could reel me in.
Only happened twice.
The 3rd time this Winder tried he blew his belt.
One Winder couldn't catch me & i've always said that his is a SLOW one. There is always a dud. Looks like most Mach's were to.
My old Ecoboost came the closest. LUCKY for me we didn't get a chance to run top end since that ride was more technical then up North.
I ended up towing that sled later before he had a chance anyways.

SIDEWINDER FASTEST on TOP!!!!!
NOT denying that.
STOCK for STOCK
APPLES to APPLES
The R will hang & out accelerate it until full shift out. At least mine will. Got a dozen witnesses if not more

1, Quicker Throttle Response. The Turbo is mounted on the engine & it's TINY. With ITC it's instant
2. Quicker clutching. At least stock it is
3. SkiDoo weight transfer. It's actually a PITA sometimes

The SideWinder definitely can out corner it on the big fast BENDAS. I miss that SOLID feel.
Could be that weight transfer or heavier front end or maybe the Doo has just fallen to a hard 3rd place out of 3
It could be cuz i got the cheapest shocks there are.
That's how i got mine for $13,150 OTD! Out The EFFIN' Door!

P.S:
Don't put too much weight on the back of SideWinder just like we were told. My bud ran a spare gas tank, broke the tunnel then the studs blew the heat exchanger.
P.S2:
The more i look at this Black & Gold Winder and some of the SRX's, the more i want one. We'll see next year cuz at 10,000 miles i'll be buying new

I'm planning on 2 Canada trips next year. I think i can get 7000 miles, IDK it's starting to cost a lot of $$$$
I'd love to ride with a guy named FAST!

I may go to the UP if i can get my crew together so maybe just 1 Canada trip.
Been wanting to try New Brunswick or Ontario..........................your back yard

I think we should end on that note .that crash kind of spoiled my chance to ride with you Steve. I hope we can rip it up next year. Even though I don’t qualify because I’ve been married for 41 years. my wife is an absolute angel , she is OK with me riding 4 or 5 weeks as long as I take her to Florida for a week or so and I will forever love her for that. I should mention that she actually bought me a brand new 2014 Apex XTX, I can’t believe how good she is to me so I will repeat I will forever love this woman.

Sounds exactly like my wife...she only wants a trip back to California to visit family...in the middle of winter it's also nice to visit the desert.

I can't believe how many miles you put on a year.Just thinking of your gas bill is crazy $8 a gallon in canada , If you do make it to canada send me a line. With covid i couldnt get across to michigan for the last 2 years and it just doesn't seem to be going away
 
YEP
We didn't go to Canada cuz of the COVID restrictions.
I used to travel 6 hours, but now it's 8 hours to get to my riding area.
So i figure i put over 5000 miles on my truck.
As long as i get more miles on my sled then truck, i can justify the drive.
At 4 to $5 per gallon, i spent some CHING
MY GAWD i gots problems!

i:e OCD
