Question Mud pro 1000 vs thundercat 1000??

Will the mud pro 1000 power wheelie on flat dry ground?(the long wheel base must affect this)
Are the axles on the mud pro more heavy duty than the t-cat?

I'm not a mud pit racer. I'm more of a trail and mud hole rider. My buddies and I also cut up on dry ground in pastures riding wheelies ,cutting do-nuts and drag racing each other. With this being the case. Would I be better off buying the t-cat 1000 and installing aftermarket snorkels and tires?

How does the ac 1000 compare in power to the can-am 800?

The Mud Pro would be my choice....why go aftermarket when there is a factory set up, ESPECIALLY when the factory gears are already properly set up for large tires on the MudPro?
If you're buying a 4x4 to pull wheelies, get a Scrambler or Can-am...if you're looking to be the guy everyone else envies at the mudhole, get the mudpro

Personally id buy a thundercat....People above who say the mp1000 is geared more for the bigger tires are flat out wrong, the mp1000 and tcat both have 3.1 ratio diffs. Just the mudpro is clutched, by using different secondary helix and longer primary collar is longer. However i dont like the long chassis nor think that its worth the extra from a tcat to get zillas and snorkels and a bit of clutching.

not really flat out wrong, just a year model late...the TCat had 4.0 gears originally.
