Good luck boys!

That’s exactly why I bailed. I had a couple people that wanted to do it and go out. Then I got a zrt roller and a motor, then I realized a track is $1000, a top end probably turns into a crank, little shit that you’re gonna want to update and replace before you go 120 on a 20+ year old sled. If I were racing out there it’d be one thing but having 5-6-7 grand in just a sled for a one off race you have to travel to race against a bunch of guys who can not only outspend you but realistically outride you is a losing proposition.

What if you want your 100mph capable sled going 100 and not 80? Is that unreasonable? It’s not like there’s 3-4 miles an hour on the table, it’s 15-20.

You can try to make it at least halfway decent though? I don’t think that’s too big of an ask.

I remember him doing my ZR and 99 mxz shocks back when he was in his little shop in ballston spa, met me and my dad at the gas station to take my shocks. I think he’s out towards Syracuse or somewhere more western New York now and a lot bigger. Nice guy

Ian from monster? I haven’t ridden an Ifp sled only mine and Tom’s atac but I rode his on a smooth day.

theres no comparison, nothing compares to an arctic cat. Along the lines of what Greg said, I’d describe the catalyst almost as a lifted/narrowed up matryx with the tried and true point and shoot procross front end bolted on. Also like he said the matryx has a more linear ride quality where the cat still lacks at cruising speeds in stutter bumps but shines in the big stuff when you’re riding it hard. The handling and ability to track straight when beating on them in the rough were two things I was worried about with the catalyst coming from the trusty old procross. You should definitely be impressed when you ride one.

Every time I’ve ridden Vermont the trails blow. That’s around the woodford area mostly though I know the NEK is supposed to be a whole nother ball game.

I’m gonna put one in a yerf dog for what they cost

Pretty close, then I was just more worried it was gonna be a pain in the ass and expensive to fix 😂

Here’s a good one, luckily it’s one of my buddies sleds I was servicing at the shop not a random customer. 22 Mach Z. Battery was dead so I left it on the charger over night. Stopped by after i was done plowing and hit the start button to see if she was charged up. Rolled over twice kinda slow and on the second one backfired like a 12 gauge and blew the intake apart. Best I can figure is it dumped a bunch of fuel then randomly sent a spark signal from the low voltage. Luckily and surprisingly the manifold isn’t expensive.

There should be dragy screenshots somewhere on here of 98.2mph in mashed potato snow.

Pm me I can give you a list of off the shelf cat parts to get it to 100 on the gps and get rid of the belt dust.

Hopefully if/when new ownership takes over they hire some reps that listen to the dealers and consumers and relay that info up the ladder instead of just being a bunch of company yes men.

I was thinking Russian roulette
