That’s where the NWS had a site in your area that showed historical temp data. What’s this? Oh… more historical temp data showing you’re full of shit.
Still waiting for your lying ass to prove I welched twice on a bet.
You haven’t because you can’t you just post bullshit as you’re too fucking stupid to do anything else.

Oh no! Krom’s favorite climate change denier was proven wrong again due to cherry picking data to fit his narrative. What now Krom? You wanna try finding an actual credible source or are you going to continue with making bullshit claims?

Bwahahahaha!
You can’t prove shit because you are lying. 
What a pathetic fuck. You’re totally full of shit. 
Deepthroater just got owned….. Again.

Prove it.
I see it was another big Saturday night for Deepthroater. Posting lies on an obscure forum at 11 pm. Let’s go cock gobbler, I want to see you prove what you wrote.

How much do you want to wager that I can't afford to ever make a trip to Alaska?

On 6/6/2025 at 8:39 AM, mnstang said: Lol another claim your bastard ass won't back up. I just spent your bet money on wall memorabilia today but don't worry I have more. Let's put that money down, Slugger. That's how you make bets with untrustworthy people, didn't your pops teach you that?
On 6/7/2025 at 5:46 AM, mnstang said: Obviously I can go to Alaska if I wanted to. Wasting my time more by going down the hole for you to not bet or put money up would be silly. I've proven my point. More baseless claims, you're really an unhappy child eh? Beautiful day here in MN.
The welching cuck bitch went into hiding.
When he gets called out he tucks tail and runs away. Don’t cry @mnstang ya just got totally owned and made the fool of the entire forum.

When fucktard @mnstang called it a race sled he was wrong, as usual. Back when Polaris was using the IQR for XC, that was a true race sled. It had a bunch of proprietary, race sled only parts that weren’t on the consumer sleds. Hell, back then they were transitioning away from the consumer IQ chassis to the Pro-ride chassis so the IQR was even more of a true race sled for XC.
Looks like Cat and Doo should get be petitioning ISR to require Polaris to run the quick drive belt system to slow the Cross Country down. @fortune46x

Despite climate alarmist headlines, satellite data shows snowpack in North America has remained steady—and even increased slightly since the 1980s.
Poor Krom. He can’t argue for squat and now has to use non-credible, anti science based “sources” in a pathetic attempt to back his bull shit claims. The Heartland Institute… that’s right up there with citing that Phillip Morris says smoking cigarettes is safe.

Since you were too stupid to even try to refute this video the first time, let’s try again.
Gee Krom, why have these glaciers melted away with all your global cooling that’s going on? It must be a conspiracy! Greta and her dope smoking friends are holding hair dryers to the glaciers every night to get them to melt.

pro-stock and terrain racing is what I prefer to watch, or actually give a crap about. sadly, they haven't been in the ditches for a while now. hopefully that changes this winter...
Wish with one hand and shit in the other and see which one comes true first. They’ll be lucky to even get consistent lake ice this upcoming winter. It’s called climate change.

4 hours ago, mnstang said: If cat thinks they can develop sleds through things they find in xc racing, sure spend some money on it.
However if it's just for bragging rights don't waste one dollar. Nobody cares about it and they need to focus on so many more important things than some lake racing that nobody cares about or even knows is happening. Aren't they also racing a consumer sled against a Polaris race sled? I mean who cares? Nobody.
Too much of a coward to keep his word. Too poor to bet. Now too stupid to know the Polaris Cross Country 600 is just a consumer Maytrx XCR with a sleeved down 650 motor and some bolt on, heavier duty parts.

You should really stop pounding the washer fluid. It's rotted what little brain you have.
Remember kids, when it comes to rough, bumpy trails Deepthroater says turn your clickers to full soft. You want to reduce any compression and rebound damping your shocks are capable of.

Tell everyone again how you recommend to turn your clickers to full soft for rough trails. Bwahahahaha! Fucking moron.
Here’s your thread asswipe. Keep owning yourself.

They have not been legal in snocross since no one makes a oem belt drive in a snocross sled. Mike just got the slipper clutch approved in 2024 before cat shut down racing. It is coming. I’ll believe that when I see it.
If they were slower accelerating - why does every lake xc race that herf and the rest of team arctic prior to the catalyst run belt drives on? Because that’s what the Catalyst comes belt drive stock. Why haven’t they won anything? Answer, the belt drive is slow, too much friction and resulting resistance.

Clearly just copy and pasted that because you don't know what you're talking about.
Still waiting for you to set up the bet that was going to show me how you can afford to make a trip to Alaska.
Here’s your belt dipfuck.

1 hour ago, fortune46x said: As someone that converted a chain drive sled to a belt drive I can tell you with 100% certainty It makes the sled drastically faster in acceleration. Your top speed will be determined as always by your gear ratio - youll just get there a hell of alot faster and easier with the belt drive.
Reduction of rotational mass (aluminum pulleys and a gates polychain carbon fiber belt) doesnt suck up the horsepower that a conventional drive chain a sprockets does.
Cats main problem with the catalyst is an alignment problem. not a final drive belt problem.
Using a rubber belt reduced spike loads for the morons that cannot get off the gas if the sled went in the air but it also has its short comings in stretch where the gates polychain (as seen on the hypersled post) actually tightens up as it warms up.
It’s called unconscious bias. You invested time and money into a conversion and are seeing/feeling what you want to believe. Then you go and contradict yourself saying that belts get tighter with heat. A tighter belt in a final drive isn’t going to become more efficient in respect to friction.
Also, if the belt drive “makes the sled drastically faster in acceleration” than it would be used in snox where holeshots are king. They’d get around the breakage issues of throttle on landings by using a slipper clutch on the bottom cog. But they don’t. Why? Because other than in your imagination, they aren’t faster at acceleration.

No problem. But they’d probably ask why I’m comparing their drag sled to a slow ass Catalyst?
Belt drives are considered less efficient than chain drives, particularly at lower power outputs. This is because belts experience more energy loss due to expansion and contraction, and they are more susceptible to slippage, whereas chain drives have a more direct and positive engagement.
Here's a more detailed explanation:
Factors Affecting Efficiency:
Friction and Slippage:
Chain drives, with their positive engagement, minimize slippage and friction, leading to higher efficiency. Belts, on the other hand, can experience slippage, especially with less tension or worn belts.
Material Expansion and Contraction:
Belts experience more expansion and contraction with each revolution, resulting in energy loss as heat.
Chain Drive Advantages:
Higher Efficiency:
Chain drives have a higher efficiency, due to reduced friction.
No Slippage:
The positive engagement between chain and sprocket minimizes slippage, leading to greater efficiency.
Belt Drive Advantages:
Lower Maintenance: Belts generally require less maintenance and adjustment than chains.
Longer Life: Belts are often designed to last longer and are less prone to stretching or wear.
No Need for Lubrication: Belts typically don't require lubrication, which can be a drawback for chain drives.
In Summary:
Ya just got owned.
While chain drives are often favored for their efficiency, belt drives offer advantages in terms of maintenance and longevity. The optimal choice depends on the specific application and priorities of the user. On Arctic Cat Catalyst sleds, the belt drive is well known to reduce top speed and turn the meager engine power available into wasted heat.

What’s wrong dipfuck? I thought climate change was fake according to morons like yourself. Enjoy sweating your balls off and walking around with swamp butt in all that humidity. With each passing year it’s only going to get worse in the shithole state you live in.
