Nice looking 1-ton. What lug height is your track looks over 2in. Maybe you should come up north(Tony grove) and show me what that sled can do[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

It is quite a rush as you can imagine. I would love to try and get a turbo R1 in a quad...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] Mileage is as expected, not real good when on the boost, but you dont need to stay on it real long either. The track is a 2.5x162 Camo. I have since changed it to a 159 x 2 finger since I just didnt need all that paddle. I had it at Tony grove early last year but was only running 7 lbs of boost and the weather was no good. I was a four stroke non-beleiver until I built this sled and now I am looking to see if the same thing can be done in quads. 4stroke + turbo = domination

What it would be cool 2 smaller tires up front and a big fat custom 30 inch tire in the back.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Its been done on the raptor 700, the gearing is too long which makes this build suitable for dunes and sandpits. It would be nice if Yamaha came out with a r1 engine with a different bottom end /gear ratio for the raptor.
