What are they running for tracks to be able to handle the friction from that kind of speed?

Ya 12.5 is what a near stock Yamaha RX1 would do nearly ten years ago. There are so many idjits with oil money in my area with 300 plus hp sleds that you don't even notice them on their F250's sled decks anymore, they're everywhere. Farthest I've ever jumped on a sled (or motorcycle) was about 30 feet, and that was thrilling as all hell. Can't imagine over 400...
