If it is 800 class horsepower, it would most likely be a boosted version of the 500 phazer engine.
It would just need stronger rods and pistons, and lower compression.

stuff that is registered and rideable atm is, 88 vk540, 90 sprint (gone soon), 91 et400 t/r (gone soon), 97 et410, 09 phazer rtx/x, 2011 apex xtx and the 2016 apex xtx. still need to get the ss440 running but need a skid for it and have not decided to make it a 121" or 136" track sled yet.

sorry guys. already got it a new home as it was a christmas present for my gf god daughter. she has been using it all winter on the farm and trails. figured it was a good sled for her to learn on and the used 1-1/4" ripsaw i put on there made it awsome in the snow we had this winter compared to the neghbours stock sled same year. just need to get it into her name to finish it off.

lol you might not have wanted mine as it was a mining company sled for checking the power lines and it was well abused. belly pan had been repaired/replaced at least once and i had to rebuild the steering column 3 times myself as well as seeing a previous repair on it. had to replace the fuel tank as it split on the seam and the seat was toast as well. heck the track had all the fiberglass rods showing too. still only had 3500 km on it when i got it but was beat harder than i beat stuff for sure. when i gave it to the kid it had 4100 km on it.

Ah yeah ok. I’m looking for the sleeping cherries. I got lucky with my 86. The 87 was a bit beat but is fully, fully loaded now. I acquired an 88 to be able to copy the bush bar, but it’s going to a buddy in exchange for a bit of trades work.

Rupp Nitro was a cool looking sled back in the day. Just reminiscing with a friend about his, and his RTX 440 skiroule.

Yep......I remember those days as the 440 Rupp Nitro was quick but my SRX433 was faster on and off the race track. They blew out those Skiroules for under five hundred bucks back then as my cousin and myself bought two 447's

Now as for bringing back to life some Rupp's, My Hunting partner and long time friend put back together two Rupp's a Nitro & a 440 Sprint ...I think it was called Sprint. They were both a Full Restoration and I powder coated the crap out of that Sprint from head to toe....lol

How things have changed since it first started:D:D:D
