Title: How fast is a 1980 Free Air 340 Drifter??
Post by: Tory944 on March 03, 2015, 02:10:27 PM: Well, you've come to the right place! ;D

Had mine out on a perfectly FLAT hard packed, well groomed railroad bed... 1/2 mile long. GPS = 51.3 mph

SO THERE YOU HAVE IT! (Fun little sled) ;)

Post by: rminier on March 03, 2015, 04:09:56 PM: ;D My sentiments, exactly, Tory. Gilson makes garden tractors and stump grinders or sumthin, don't they? Just kidding, Gilson435, I see some of your stuff over on Vintagesleds. Good stuff!

Post by: Tory944 on March 03, 2015, 05:59:59 PM: Lol... I purposely bought the Gilson because I wanted something to race in the one lunger class. I figured nobody would be foolish enough to race a Gilson. I would surely be the underdog! Furthermore, the one lunger race (for me) is just "for fun" and will surely get a few laughs from the crowd. Lots of Sno Jets and Arctic Cats, but nothing quite as nasty as a double headlighted microwave on skis.
