I spent the money with Shock Therapy to get the upgraded springs all around and limit straps. Now it handles 3' whoops and everything else I throw at it. It handles better than my buddies full race Polaris. I love my XTR!!! Added 32's, rear clutch spring and 32's w/+2 on both sides +4" total width. It runs great. Holds the rpm's around 9800 now and pulls like crazy. I'm not afraid of the turbo cars except in a straight up drag race.
 
Shop has both cars, and I have driven both cars.... nothing compares to the XX suspension and steering. PERIOD. I have also driven the Talon with 32's and it definitely lost a good bit of acceleration.

Yep. The Wildcat XX and Tracker XTR have the best suspension, cage and chassis. You have to replace all these on a Polaris, Yamaha or Can-Am to actually race one. Not the XX or XTR. They used REAL chromoly tubing .120 wall everywhere. I've seen a XX roll down a mountain, off a 20' cliff and then be driven away with only a couple little dings in some tubing. Everything was still 100% straight. There isn't even a comparison when you look at the builds. No rear radius rods to bend to crap. Add a turbo and you've already surpassed the others while spending $10-15k less.
