Sound familiar?Īll of the Pro Stock Snowmobile racers take their racing seriously, and spend a pile of time and money to build and tune these machines. It's a delicate dance to grab ahold of the drive belt and efficiently transfer power down to the track, without blowing the track away at the hit, or having it get loose and blow the track off farther down the 1320. MSD ignition progamming is also key, to adjust when and where the power hits and how hard. The two stroke engines can be extremely finicky to tune, and are very touchy to jetting and air density. I can tell you that there was a glitch with the data computer on Todd's sled after the first round, and he went back to some old-school tuning by feel to get the sled to launch and leave cleanly in the final. Tuning the clutch system is tricky, and that's where most of the magic happens that separate winners and also-rans.Īll of the top teams run some serious data management computers, and will go over the graphs and numbers religously after every run. The primary clutch is a centrifugal type very similar in principal to what the fuel cars run, constructed of billet and using a combination of springs and flyweights to apply pressure and shift the power back thru a rubber belt to a torque converter, then a jackshaft which drives a chain to spin the drive axle and track. They run a 10.5 inch wide Camoplast track specifically made for the application.Īll Pro Stock sleds must run a CVRT belt type transmission. Most of the top competitive sleds in the Pro Stock class run a tube chassis or a billet tunnel/chassis, and a rear skidframe from either Pro Stock Inc or Proline Performance. The sled/driver combo has to weigh in at 650 lbs. Most teams will admit to horsepower in the 270-280 range. The engine bottom end must start as an OEM piece, and the "skin" must match the engine brand. The engines can be no larger than 1000 c.c.'s, naturally aspirated on legal race gas. The rules are pretty basic, and very similar to Pro Stock cars. ![]() ![]() I was fortunate to be crewing for Todd Serra's winning Pro Stock Snowmobile at Brainerd, and I can assure you that although they might be a novelty to most NHRA drag racing fans, these sleds are pretty sophisticated pieces of drag racing machinery.

![]() Piriform CCleaner is a set of tools and utilities that allow you to fine-tune your desktop or laptop computer. Each one is slightly different and focuses on different ways to clean and tune up your PC.Ĭlean Master Official, in particular, is a popular choice amongst users who frown upon CCleaner’s privacy and security practices.

Though I make it a point to stop by 4 State Trucks whenever I pass through Mo., as I write this entry it's been a few years since I've seen the west coast, 4 State Trucks or the Mobsled. Stacks can be good for so many performance- and looks-related aspects, and theyre perfect if you use your truck as a daily driver or show horse. it is older than you think and/or has been run with an incorrect pressure. I even knew they were located in Joplin but it just never clicked and I never made the connection.įortunately, I had my camera (as I always do) and I did click and click and more clicking to record the shots of the Mobsled you see in this post. Those long cracks at the bottom of the tread mean you need to replace the tire. Up to that point I'd only heard of Chrome Shop Mafia and its (then) TV show " Trick My Truck" and had seen pictures of the sled in various trucking publications. Perched up high above the salvage yard, custom building shops and accessory store of 4-State Trucks and its counterpart, The Chrome Shop Mafia. As I pulled out of the Pilot I looked about 1:00 o'clock and there it was directly across the street. I'd grabbed my friends tobacco request and headed out to my truck. Even at hot rod events like Hot August Nights in Reno, NV many of these custom rigs are allowed to idle down Virginia Street. In the U.S., truckers often gather at regular shows called Super Rigs, named for a calendar that Shell Oil has put out for over 20 years. There were many truckstops at exit 4 on I-44 but on this day I chose the Pilot-And a good thing that I did. In Japan they call it ‘dekotora‘ or art trucks. I was a monthly runner to California that year and on those occasions when the return trip took me across I-40 through Oklahoma, Missouri, Illinois and Indiana I would, at the request of another driver friend of mine, stop in Joplin to pick up a carton or two of cigarettes for his girlfriend (cigarettes in Missouri are wicked cheap!). That was the day I came face-to-face with Chrome Shop Mafia's showpiece " The Mobsled." In the end you’d end up paying over 300,000 for that non decked out fleet truck.
