I have no idea what a Sprintfire, whether a 82,83, or 84 should look like, but doesn't some of them have tunnel striping? This one doesn't but the one on the model page has beautiful stripes.

Maybe Joe or Robb can answer this question? Why is it that the direct drive sleds Spit,Sprint,and Snow have the rigid tunnels? I was guessing for rigidness?? Not sure if that question ever came up,but prolly has in the past? :think: :think:

How about this Sprint? A little suspicious as I don't see a S/N tag on the side but somebody will inquire I am sure.

As far as the ridges on the tunnel, it's an easy way to add structural rigidity without adding weight. A flat surface has way less strength than a curved surface.

Hi Guys,

Robb is right, the stamped raised ribs on the Sprintfire is a low cost method to add strength without using a thicker material. Many new sleds do this now.

As for that low mileage Sprint, that is a pretty cool find. Too bad it's still not in the crate, as I would be making a midnight run north this weekend...
