Would a 2002 stock viper give a 2004 arctic cat F6 a goos run ?

if traction is equal, i think it could go either way until 70-80mph, then the viper should pull away.

yup as Dave said, traction will be very important in that race (as it is in any race). But if you are well tuned you will take it without too much sweat.
I ran one about 5 times and it was dead even all the way through, about a half-mile run. I do believe he had some work done , as did some of his buddies sleds he was with. Mine's stock, Viper S no studs, but it was a good hard pack lake so I don,t think the conditions favored either one of us.
As the earlier emails stated traction is key. If the F6 is a Sno Pro with the 1.375 track, the Viper will lose up to 70 - 80 MPH. After 80 in any case it is all Viper. My riding partner has a 04' F6 SP and that 600 EFI motor pulls really hard up to about 70 MPH. G.B.

f6 is lighter, better weight transfer, better track than stock 02 viper track, twin has better holeshot. i would say the f6 all the way, would need a long stretch for the viper to catch it
