No..... I'm driving it through the trees and digging it out by myself on occassion. Also really thinking about the Nytro MTX for what I do with a sled, and trying to collect data for comparisom.REXX said:With engine running and throttle on??...weightless!!

its around the 700lb mark full of fuel ready to ride.
Nytro MTX will be 100+ pounds lighter. its about 520 dry, smaller gas tank helps a lot with weight. it will definitely be around 560-575 wet

Yeah...I hear ya. I guess I'm a bit sensitive to the whole weight thing...it must be a self esteem issue .
I agree worming through tight trees at slow speeds is a workout. I practice avoidance and draw my own lines...I don't have to go very fast for it to become effortless.
I learned quick with my RX1 mtn...I'm not liftin' or diggin' nuthin'.
As soon as the sled starts to dig down..I stop and take a look around to see if it's deep snow, a hidden bush, or an uphill slope that's got me. I then wade out in front of the sled and swim out a path in the direction I need to go. I then grab a front ski and swing the front end into the path. Next I use my legs to pack the snow a bit under the front of the track. Then I get on and boot 'er out!

Buy a highlifter jack and us it! Weight will no longer be an issue and you can save your energy for riding, not digging and lifting. All sled are heavy when they are stuck!
