Is 9.35 in a 1/4 considered quick?
Just had to share this with you guys. This is not a photoshop job. The ET stickers on the side of this machine are for real! :eek:
Actually when he made his last "World Record" pass he ran 9.31sec 142.33mph 1.13 60' time.
This is a pic of a kid I grew up with. The pic was at New England Dragway in 1996. He set and reset the world record 6 times. He still holds the 1st NHRA competition license issued for snowmobiles.

I watched a guy out in Geneseo NY running high 9s/low 10s with his sled. If he didn't have to keep getting out of the throttle for the front skis/wheels to steer, I can only imagine what it would have done.

Some guy races one up in Wisconsin, at the Great Lakes Drag strip. It's a blast to watch!
Put a motor on it and some one WILL race it.
