Just tried a Polaris 850 vs my buddy's Ski-Doo 900T and I'm rethinking everything

We swapped sleds for a few miles up on the trail near Houghton Lake last weekend and his Ski-Doo just felt way more planted in the slushy turns. My Polaris kept pushing wide no matter how I adjusted the suspension. Am I missing something with setup or does the 900T really handle that much better in spring conditions?

Yeah man, similar setup changes might help but that 900T chassis is just way better in soft snow!

Oh man, tell me about it. I remember last season I took my old Polaris into some fresh powder up near Baker and it just wanted to dig straight down. Spent half the day digging it out while my buddy on his 900T just floated right over everything like it was nothing. I was caked in snow up to my knees and he's just sitting there sipping his coffee. Felt like a total rookie even though I've been riding for years.
