Metzger raced the sno bike event. One of our local riders was the announcer for the event.

I've never seen that before! Looks like a lotta' fun! They corner better than you would think being how the rear track is as flat as it is!

they are around 3g's. i have considered it on my kx, but i dunno if it would really have enough power to turn the extra weight of the track

Man. It's a wonder what they will come up with next. That really looks fun. Just another plus for snow.

Thats not as bad as I thought they would be.
I seen one on display atthe fair once and he told us the CC sizes were what you said. Im guessing they arent light.
