DO NOT RUN YOUR SLED MOTOR TO 10,000 rpm on a stand.If that track ever let go and if someone is behind the sled..they are dead..or at least lose 2 legs.Some people have had there overhead doors being takin down and bent right in while reving the track on the stand.VERY VERY DANGEROUS thing to do.

thanks man had no idea. that makes sence now cause it had no load thats why it went so highbluemonster1 said:or your clutch may blow at that rpm or pistons come thru or rods.....
You want about 8300rpm under load on a stock Viper.
Did you even have the belt on? If you did that is very dangerous..... If belt was off you could have blown your clutch apart.....

if your sled is on the stand running 10000, it could be due to the fact that there is no load on the motor, so it is revving out at 10000 rpms, i wouldn't keep doin this as it is dangerous, you can run it across the field and find out what the rpm's are

first time I have heard a 2 stroke sled motor going 10,000 rpms..A few more minutes of that and there would of been pieces flying everywhere thru the gaurd and hood and thru you even....dangerous man!!!!

At 10,000 rpm no load the clutches would have been in complete overdrive, speedo would have been buried. Again why. You might now want to check the hyfax for excessive wear and transfer to the track clips. Al
