Thanks Tony ..you are right about the nightmare problems,I know that they did have some problems but I think that they have been exaggerated a lot over the years..it is good to hear good things about these sleds. I know why you raced it to ,this thing goes like he_ _ !! it will make a lot of new 500 and even 600cc sleds blush.. I would like to see some pics of you racing it..There is a article in VSCA that tells how to put pics on these sites.. See you at Boonville this summer..
