mnstang Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Defending champ still on cat. Bummer about Wed Selby though, sign of the times.  It's dumb that non educated people look at the color so much in racing. A winner will win on any color.

Crnr2Crnr Posted September 12, 2021 Author Share Posted September 12, 2021 From FB: Wesley Selby 2h  · Very excited to be joining team @skidoo and all the new team mates. My new focus will be racing the @rmsha hillclimb circuit full time and when time allows racing xc at select events that do no conflict. I am pumped to get these new sleds in my hands and start racking up some miles. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fortune46x Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 I blame it 110% on the brass at cat. If they keep Mikes hands tied all the time while hes trying to retain talent they wont have anything to market. Davis, Turcotte, Selby, Kaufman (and having a hibbert working on the yellow flavor now)  all of those larger names all left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve has been with skidoo since Dan Benham went to them, this year he is doing what he did with cat - clutching for a team while providing baselines for the support classes. Complacency will only put cat farther behind and less relevant. I saw it when I worked for the factory offroad team that they were content where they were at and we had to beg for funding and parts. The only interesting thing is talking with Carl last night they're back in sponsoring snocross. I don't know if its at the same level as 2018 but its somewhat good news for the sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XCR1250 Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 I honestly believe sledding is dying out, where I used to see at least a couple dozen at the local eating/drinking establishments I only see a few sleds now, just down the road from me in the early 1990's there was 104 sleds there at 1 time, now you see maybe 12-15 at a time and also many trails here are open to ATV's in the Winter now and we're beginning to see those on the trails at the same time as sleds which I think is stupid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
