I need a different track. The stocker with a bunch of studs pushes too much in the corners. Thinkin of finding another Mach for me and letting the fiance ride the 800. That Mach just cruises awesome at 80!

Most miles I've put on in a day was 330. That was a tough day on a 95 Formula Z when I was 18!
the machz;s really are not that great of sleds. the 1000SDI engine is really a hit or miss. alot of them ran horrible. also note they are heavy and the suspensions are not great, limited front end travel. personally id go with a new 09 dragon 800 poo but the 09 xp is going to be a much better sled then the 08 xp was. i still think the rev is better then the xp though. i dont relaly like the rev though either. i dont feel very comfortilbe on them. i like the IQr much better. the new cat racers are really nice sled but your not looking at race sleds. id go poo or doo if oyu looking at a consumer sled though for sure.
