I have 98 srx700 with bender clutch kit it engages at 4000rpm,a bender can and boyesen reeds.It also has a high rise air kit and extra front idler wheels to push the track down,The track is stock no studs and weight transfer rods.I raced it in the snow class and got beat bad out of the hole started to reel guys in near the end but could not make up the difference.I was thinking 1.25inch ripsaw and some gear.I just bought it this year and was told by other people this sled used to kick butt at the races.Is it to old and heavy?A guy i know has a viper700 for sale this thing is really fast!!!!It has around 165 horse,Alot of work done to it.he tells me he could not make his srx beat this thing no matter how much work he did to his so he bought it.It looks so much lighter and faster not sure what to do.I would really like to be competitive with my freinds and at the races.thanks in advance for any help.

SRX
Wille, Traction,Traction,traction! I agree you need to put a better Track! The stock 98 track has poor hook up on all conditions. I have a 99 and run the stock 99 track (.92 lug)but also run 198 pics! It hooks up much better since I picked. I also added a low end clutch kit and transfer rods that helps with the tunning ability depending on condidtions.I am going to a ripsaw this year since I have 8000 miles on that sled and Track. I have heard that most people said it really helped. Stock Viper vs stock srx and the SRX will walk all over the Viper but if the Viper is Piped and putting out 170HP you will have alot of trouble with it. If you get your power to the ground you will be much closer even though he has an extra (40hp)! Enjoy that SRX AKA Bluebullet
