Yes 60 degrees out, and not broken in, but..... Also a comparison with a muffler mod
Can't wait for them to try this after break in, and on a 20 degree day in the snow
90mph for ZR8000, 92mph for the 850, 99mph for the stock thundercat, and 101mph for the muffler mod

I think that 850 is gonna run boys. I'm not scared, but i don't think we're gonna walk 'em. I'll just look for the fat guys to make up for that 90lb difference...

Keep in mind that the Doo's ECU was in break in mode. Imagine once it's running at full power.........

Short race, the lighter sled always will be close in short drag but the big turbo is walking away hard by end of this short track so on our lakes it becomes massive...Dont think a STOCK 1100t would even be close to this stock turbo. Toss on a muffler and the 2s will look feable.
I would have liked to see the SW in this race, wonder how close the SW and Tcat will run, clutching/gearing can mean alot!

The engine will loosen some, but I doubt you will see the gains the Doo will see. I am also curious what difference Yamaha clutching will makeSame can be said for a brand new 4 stroke motor

dan ck out the video on dt with the sw running a 800 poo and being close to even with it .Short race, the lighter sled always will be close in short drag but the big turbo is walking away hard by end of this short track so on our lakes it becomes massive...Dont think a STOCK 1100t would even be close to this stock turbo.

Now this has me wondering some things...
A poo(modded obviously) is beat by a 850, supposedly stock......
then this same POO beats a new SW!......hmmmmm wonder what is going on? Is the Tcat clutching faster then SW?

If the 850 is also modded,then this would make more sense....but when combining all these videos it makes me wonder whos clutching works best? Cat or Yam?

Any good clutched 850 or Poo with excellent traction should run with or beat on occasion a SW or tcat in 500ft. Not sure why everyone is so shocked?
