Anyone have sled pull videos?
« on: August 18, 2008, 02:48:38 PM »
Here's a video from my sled pull in Ortonville, MN on Saturday.  I got first in the 1100# class.  I don't know how to make a link, so could someone do this for me? 
                         That track was so rough it was throwing me all over.  Had a good time.

The turnout wasn't the best.  I only had 6 in my class, a couple from polaris-700's I think, a 700 Grizz, a 500 Vinson, and a 950 T-cat.  The Cat was so embarrassed after his pull that he didn't enter the next higher class.  In his defense, he took the machine right off the showroom floor to try and make a good showing for Cats.  The machine was missing like crazy when he was trying to pull.  He should have blew me out of the water so something wasn't right.  Oh, there wasn't any Kawi's there so I guess I had no real competition, right guys? ;D

I also entered the 950# class and that didn't turn out so well.  If you guys saw the video you could see my weight bracket sticking way out front.  Well that was meant to offset my ass end dropping so low when pulling.  Anyway I didn't anticipate the Baja-type track conditions and I lost all my weights giving me a big DQ.  I have that video too, but I don't know if I will post that one.   ::)

No one around here seems to have a Kawi so you probably would have sold Kawi's to people that have only rode Polaris or Honda.  Kawi's, the SRA's anyway, do really well in pulls.

I'm guessing that the T-Cat had the diff locked in and when that is engaged you have to hit the override button or the rev limiter will kick in at 5000 RPM.  A buddy had that problem at Lake Andes earlier this summer in the grass drags, he learned his lesson after the first run :)
