Last year i wanted to keep my sled from bogging in the powder so much so lately i got to thinking and i was wondering if it would be possible to get some really fine mesh and put it over the regualar vents, keeping the powder out and so on but still letting air through?. Would it help and any other ideas?

Is it pulling pow into the intake?? or cooling the pipe?? Years back they used to have like a bug sheild/winter front that would snap onto the hood.

its pulling a bit into intake but it should bog just from that much bug im thinking its mainly the pipe so im going to try to find some fine mesh or just some strong cloth and put it over most of the front vents. shouldnt hurt anything seeing that air should be able to get through right?

also no problem haha

SLP sells the stuff. It's black, and doesnt let snow or water through, but does let air through.
