Its true guys....this sled has a lot of neat race history behind it...It sat on the pole at the Soo I 500 race in 1978 and always finished 7th or better till she popped a crank in 84 and dnf. I know we have all seen plenty of 77 srx sleds before...but this one held up for 500 miles at a time when it raced! I thought you yami junkies would get a kick out of it!

Here is the sled at the Soo race in 1984.....

CRAZY!!!!! I seen that sled rolling through Indian River yesterday on a trailer around 2:30! Kind of got a kick out of seeing it & figured there had to be a story behind it!

Are you the new owner of this sled? I stay out of town when the boat races are going on.... Too many friggin people. Indian River is a Great place to live in the winter ;)

We do a chit load of canoeing on the sturgeon though. Team Paddle Palooza :)
 
Yep...the old pink sled belongs to me now. I have won the boat race a couple of times in my class. I have been known to hang out at the brass rail on occasion also. Nick.

Hey, I'm guessing you run the Top-O. I run ASR in Canada, maybe I should make the trip down for the 60th
 
Yes...I have been running Top O since 1989 and I love it! Come and try it once and you will for sure be hooked...its a rush!
