Last year I raced a buddies 05 mach 1000 on a lake in parry sound Ont, I was all stock 1998 srx with 11000 kms, with hacksaw 1 inch track and 144 , 1.075's down the middle, and an 8bu set up. He had 192 picks and supposedly 170 plus hp, and a can. I took him about three sleds off the start and ran the lake, about 2-3 miles and he was just starting to appear at the end, he was pissed , called me a liar saying i had alot of work done, blah blah blah, then he blamed it on his drive belt, said it was worn, he changed it, and away we went again, I was about a sled length this time out of the hole and at the end we were about even, this year he's all ported, heads cut clutched, piped, race gas only..... ands wants to race again, I guess its off to mr viper for some minor ajustments!!!
