I am seeing the open houses at the sled shops so others must also be in agreement that a new sled season is starting.
Aside from this Panther 303 that is vexing me, we need to do something about our 78 Intruder. For the last run of the season we were out on a lake. The sled runs great, has always run great. But, here on the farm we never get over 30 miles per hour. Out on the lake she again ran fine, but topped out at 50. It would run strong up to 50 and then just would not go any faster. Did not seem to be dragging anything, just not enough RPMs to push any further.
I am pretty confident that she has more speed in her than that. Particularly when we were able to get the Invader up over 80 with no difficulty.
So, I am throwing this question out on the table to see what others think that i should be looking for when we bring her out of the machine shed next month.
