That is sweet, I couldn't imagine riding a fourwheeler like that! I believe this sled in the video makes around 600hp out of a 1 liter 4cyl. It also uses big stuff 3.

I wonder what these drag on sleds are using for a turbo? My dad rides a 2010 Polaris 800 Dragon with a Garrett GT28RS and it spools instantly. Climbs damn near anything, this is a light weight 2 stroke.

Pretty cool to watch...

Mines not a souped up turbo or anything, but after I get some break in miles over the winter on the new top end, I plan on going to the drag strip to see if I can get a 10 sec pass with it. A buddy gave me his old asphault stuff.

Hey man where are you located. I'm in the cities all day, but I live up by Cambridge. Can always use another riding buddy/gear head around!

The boy's in michigan have some of the fastest sled's on the planet. I noticed the videos are from Martin. I spent lots of time there when I was kid. I know there are alot of drag sleds around that area with Flannery, and the Hulin boys always building fast stuff.
