What would win a 1996 mxz 583 or a 1997 ZR 580?
I have the ZR and a kid i know has a MXZ and we didn't race yet so what do you think would win?

I had a 96 mxz 583 it ran very strong and was bullet proof. *I know a guy with 97 zr 580, but I have never rode it or raced it. *I may be a little bias but I would put money on any rotary rotax against the same size cc sled of another manufacture. *I will say it would not waste you, but the mxz would win by a sled length or two. *Then again every machine is different.

From my experience the MXZ every time assuming both run right and are stock.

The 97 Zr 580 did not turn out as hot a sled as predicted by Cat salesman. In fact I tried to get one thru Cat for drags, and am glad I did not! The Doo would still win.

no way it could win. our zr beet a 700 v-max in 1/4 mile stretch,(alfalfa field) and no way the mxz could win for one reason it had a green layer in it and they supposivly fixed that and it has a hole under the bottom below the engine.So when i race it i will tell you that i won because thats whats going to happen!

Im sorry. My 500mxz is faster then a ZR580. *A 583 is just a little faster then my 500. *Its not a race.

Not to mention a nightmare to own. I dragged the Zr with 1996 SLS 500 Ski-Doo and won.

That's exactly what I was going to say because I had
a 96 SLS also and a friend had a AC 580. I beat him
every time but my other buddy with a FZ 583 would beat
my 500! Hmmmmmmm *http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif Don't put money on it if both machines
are stock!!!!

Was that the thread that was like beating a dead horse and
come to find out he got spanked? Some people have to learn
the hard way sometimes. I know I doo. http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif
