more shootout news

Dec 1, 2005 | Uncategorized

Tim Erikson got back late last night with Polaris Fusion 600/ 900s. SW
contributing editor Dave Wells met us at the dyno, then drove Tim to
the airport  in Buffalo to catch a late flight back to MN. No time
for Tim’s dyno training this time, maybe next year.

This morning I dyno’d the two Polaris’ Tim had picked up from 
dealers in the Northeast. Everything is dandy there–per our agreement
with SnowWeek SnowGoer  I won’t release certification dyno rsults
until SnowWeek Adirondack Shootout issue is released.

After the Pol’s I dragged in the F6 EFI, dyno tested maybe six runs,
that temp probe in the pipe center section appears to be influential on
HP output. The 600 class will be interesting next week!

Tomorrow, dyno cert of the hopefully 120 HP Yamaha 4 stroke triple,
then the Mach Z (this time with blocked compression releases), then the
SkiDoo 600. Later on Friday/ Sat AM the Apex will arrive (Yamaha was
desirous of us having a non-reverse Apex at the Shootout, and they are
delivering one from somewhere North of Albany NY to the dyno tomorrow).

Lastly, we will have the ZR900 showing up to the dyno Fri PM. What I
dont’ finsish Friday will get done somehow before all sleds are brought
to Big Moose Yam/ AC for studding/ weighing etc this Sunday. While they
are studding on Sunday, I will be dynoing Trail Mod participants Jeff
Sherlock Performance (trail F8 kit in morning) and also Denny Johnson/ Kuyohoora
SkiDoo MachZ with some awful load of N2O prior to entering the SnowWeek
DTR Trail Mod Shootout. So Sunday pm you can watch our dynocams as they may
attempt to exceed the 300 HP mark with N2O juice on the already
powerful Mach Z.. Stay tuned.
