Snowmobiles are nuts! A coworker brought one of his in to the store for one of our winter displays. He's got a few, as he used to be a dealer, and has disposable income.. so what does he do? Blasts across the dry parking lot, laying an ungodly strip of black plastic and rubber. Interesting "burnout/skid" marks. Explaining to the boss was VERY difficult.

Except for the fact that you can't really turn on blacktop, it was one helluva show! Wish I woulda got it on video...

indeed, they do rock, I wish we had enough snow here to warrant me getting one, though it'd be funny to build one and drag race it, good be one of the funniest things I've seen:D

I'm a huge outdoors person, so naturally i have winter stuff. I run a double 500cc Yamaha Phazer, Mountain Deluxe; Also, the crazy machine my Dad rides is a Yamaha V-max 600 Track; Liquid cooled, double, cool display : )

JD, have you seen the New Yamaha RX-1's?I wanna ride one of them :Drool: Snowmobiles are sick fast. Why can't cars be made the same? Imagine a 240 with that kind of response.....
