Crnr2Crnr Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 SX is over, so I switched to the vintage racing at eagle River. If they do the gd Soo, this will have been worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think any Textrons made it into the pro final. @fortune46x wont be tearing many of them down this year besides his own. Just Benham and wittwer made it. 2 hours ago, Crnr2Crnr said: Lol, if you only knew Bad showing for Cat See below 1 hour ago, Palu49 said: Let me guess…..

They didn't say anything about it on the stream. Update on Taven. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like him and he’s definitely fast but it seems like he’s hurt for a majority of every season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zambroski Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Looked like another poor showing for Cat. I remember when Textron said they were gonna make Cat better than ever!! Translation: we’re canceling all our racing for the season. Nicely done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, let’s face it, even before Textron, Cat’s board is clearly unfit to make management decisions. Who hires these inept “leaders” to run a motor sports empire? Self destructive group disorder.

Deephaven Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 The big pockets of Textron comments always made me cringe. Small pockets would be better as it would force the new owners to try. They need to sell off snow and fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve long said Cat should stop trying to cross their racing with consumer compliant products. Go private, go small, go niche. It can still be profitable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone that follows SX racing can see that Polaris & SkiDoo were both making investments in their sleds, and more importantly their young riders when Cat basically had TH68 and the 2018 sled which was better than the competitions. Poo & Doo's investments in both are now paying dividends. Textron's, not so much. Benham, Yurk & Wittwer are good racers, but they aren't playing in the same league at the moment. Racers want to win and they will use the best tool to accomplish that. How many of us ever imagined Logan racing a SkiDoo? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’d be great to be a fly on the wall between the Cat race team engineers and Textron. Honestly, when they put that stay at home mom in charge of the snow division, we should have known. Her idiotic speech at Haydays confirmed it. Still, I’ll take their machine over all others on the trail right now. I’m actually scared of any changes Textron might make. Going to look at a 21 SX tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly don't know precisely why the Doo's and Poo's seem to be better rides on the track, other than superior power and maybe better suspension? it's not the hole shot device? maybe it's something we're overlooking. torn right now, leaving for a wedding in a couple hours, should be out riding a short loop as it's 20 degrees and tomorrow it's a high of five, just got back from the store, car wash, am sitting here chatting with you yahoos and watching my preferred brand get clubbed like a baby seal in SX. what's your excuse? put any miles on the new machine yet or are you waiting for scratchers and a shorter windshield?

It’s not so much the machine as the whole program. Either they are in rebuilding mode or, phasing out mode. I’m not giving any feedback on my ride til I get 250 on it. Should be this afternoon. But, spoiler…it’s been a bit of a surprise so far. I think my expectations were set too low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the way they treated Brian Dick when he said the Arctic Cat base wants a sled that's based on race sleds was too show him the door because he didn't see the direction that Textron wants to go. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
