UPDATE - 6 cylinder 2 stroke - seen doing test runs - AWESOME

My buddy saw the unveiling of the 6 cylinder 2 stroke built by TXM Race Engines. It occured last weekend in North Bay, Ontario.

They were doing test passes between 140-150mph. My buddy said it sounded like it was still idling. He talked to one guy who said they figure over 200mph is no problem at all.

thats not the sled chris hanson was on. he runs 2 different sleds. modzilla is the sled that ran 192.2 mph, which is a twin engine sled.(2- 1420cc unionbay motors on NOS) and the 172mph was with his billet mod sled, that is a single engine sled. have seen both of these sleds run.
