  1. so funny story... Coming home from Jackson Hole our flight was a 6am flight , I went through security they did the body scanner and a pat down was going to happen (surprise surprise) well they wiped my hands with this paper strip checking for explosive material and surprise - after two days of racing and fuel samples it went off. So they pulled me out of the line took my backpack and were going to do a full pat down. This little asian fella was going to do it and was explaining things and asked if I wanted to go to a private room and I responded with nope lets do it right here - and I started to undo my pants, the look of panic in his face as he studdered and kept going "uh sir... sir!!! SIR!!" then telling me "you dont need to do that we can do it with your pants on" - the people behind me were laughing their ass off knowing fully well I was trying to make it as awkward as possible for the guy. Don't think I wont drop my pants for a good laugh lol.
  2. hes a good guy always respectful. Ill be in their trailer about 9am tomorrow to do norums engine.
  3. coming home from vegas and Jeremy Houle snaggs this picture... I have alot of metal in me so pat downs are a normal thing.
  4. The other issue I have with buying a new cat is a dealer network , my closest dealer is 2 hours away, and while Country cat is awesome to deal with its still not as easy as driving 30 minutes to the dealer they dropped and warranty work is difficult (not that anything I have stays in warranty for long) I have 3 skidoo dealers within 20 minutes of my house. Hard to ignore that and look to the same sled I have currently but with a different engine. Time will tell, Really was into buying a rXC this year but I am second guessing it now.
  5. I hate to say it but I am in the market for a sled and AC isnt appealing ...
  6. I have heard power steering for the thundercat atac for the riot and that was it
  7. 20 k for a sled.... jesus... I know they wanted to be pioneers and the first to market with things but I dont think a 20k sled with less hp than the competition is the answer. What lynx models are coming to the US ? the site crashed
  8. All they need to know is NSP = best kit in the defense of polar bears He's good with road maps... doesn't know much about snowmobiles
  9. I got a few cycle hours on machines that'll give me plenty of time... I am going to start posting his email on craiglist for man on man love F7
  10. I hate to bust anyones balls here since its brand specific... but The Yamaha mill was done by the same engineers that designed the Zuke based turbo mill cat owned the patents to...
  11. lmao if I got his email Id sign him up for every gay dating website that existed.
  12. Didn't need to when you're the one taking components and inspecting them I just looked at the back side of his secondary to see if it was magical - I did ask his mechanic who did the clutching in their trailer and he looked at me blankly and said uh... Tim... lol I should ask Bender what he thinks of rickys magic
  13. bets on how long it lasts?
  14. I liked the day he told me that I needed to ask Kody Kamm whose helix he was using when I was around snocross sometime - then someone else chimed in who I was and he edited his post. Too stupid for words... sweet pod filter douchebag... we really need to get him and ramsted over here - I have a feeling we could get him really wound up and make him lose his shit.
  15. Lol nope. I stay the hell away from anything VS now. Don’t want to get Joes internet aids. If I do go back to HCS it’ll be under the name Joepischgarlikesdsinhisb
  16. Always 100:1 premix after a rebuild , I never thought about the pump arm , thats a great idea! Hopefully I can get parts without a delay and can get it back together and salvage the season , if not I am going to try to get my hands on a sno pro 500 I think and spring order a new sled.
  17. Yup , 68 miles and the oil injection pump failed. party.
  18. Woofed er again ... I am gonna need psychological help after I get the hood off.
  19. Cats is behind the right side panel. Doo's is up towards the steering post. a long way from the knees. When a transition/Junior racer is given 4 sleds its easy to see why theres so many of one brand out there. Cat came to the table this year too late after free riders had their deals set - that plus the lack of contingency money cost them the riders. The winnings don't pay the bills its the OEM's contingency that does. I got a call that if we still had the fuel cap (we did) that Polaris wanted it, I'm guessing you will see those filler necks covered up this next round. Every trailer has to have a fire extinguisher readily available, until now we didnt need to have them on the track but that could very well change.
  20. sounded like they've been asked to take them down. no one got in trouble - his knee spun the cap off - theres other riders that have had that problem. Heres the video fire.mov
  21. Thats what the pros said - the back section was critical to get it right - it wasn't just a highway to pin it and let it eat like other tracks are
  22. The one thing the live stream missed was Taylor Cole being set on fire (literally) when his gas cap came off his sled and turned him into a fire ball - I see alot of the posts (ridex365 and others) have been taken down - Im guessing polaris didnt care for the publicity they were getting from their racer being ricky bobby'd
