84' VMAX

Post by plattler »

Well, here it is. The first test laps of my newly aquired VMAX. This is the first sled that I ever owned. After a few minutes of warming up and getting a feel for it, I found a 1/8 mile patch of snow on a lake and hammered the throttle. Son-of-a-......... I hit 90 KmH and it still had more in it, but I was quickly running out of stopping area. I can't wait until we get more snow.

I've got a local high school that is doing some body work and painting (notice the green masking tape). The only other thing is to replace the windshield and maybe get a better track.

First impressions .... niiiiiice. My 6 year old son thinks it's pretty cool too.
