Anson Scheele on his SkiDoo... a Scheele on a SkiDoo.  He must want to win. 

It's been kind of sad seeing so many Die Hard Arctic families moving away from the brand.

Scheele and Pake are on Doo.

Hibbert is gone, retired. 

Christian gone, Doo then retired. 

Who else is left? 

Wittwer?

This class of racing is toast. Poo cut, doo? They might try to keep it alive, since they cant win where it counts.

Nonsense! All of it! Cat likes to race the previous generation model because Polaris still races their MY05 600R. Doo is the only one who can’t get with the program of racing older, proven sleds. Sno-X is growing by leaps and bounds, it has never been more popular. Sno-X sleds have never been more relevant with their contributions to the most popular type of sled sold, trail sleds. 
 

YouTube, Tik-Tok and Instagram are overflowing with videos of teens and young guys ripping around on groomed trails on racer replica sno-x sleds.

I see a Chevy duramax has the reliability of a ctech 600 trying to get to the Merrill gauntlet. I leart that from the newest tak video and personal experiences 

[AK440]

Why’d the Ctak guy leave Skogquist racing? 
 

Are there any Cat racers in the Pro class. That’d be pretty funny if there weren’t.

It was funny when they said in the video “Is that a factory Arctic Cat? Straight from Thief River Falls.”

I laughed at that too. But even back in the day the big team arctic guys didn’t test there. cbr had a track and I think tucker had a track or 2. I know he had one out west

There was a pretty big track at Kirk's place for bikes.  I'm assuming for sleds too.

Was it some ware around pelican rapids? When I first moved to Minnesota and calling on customers I drove past the most impressive moto cross track I had ever seen on random piece of property. I asked some people and they said it was the hibberts

This is the one outside TRF.  PR is the bottom one.

To be honest the track I saw was awesome and I saw from a road working for textron. I could not find it now. The reason I found it was because you don’t take the route everyone goes. 

[airflite1]

There is a hell of a nice track in Brooks, If you drive up 59 it's on the right side of the road.

For the people not from Minnesota, that's just south of Thief River.

I see arctic cat didnt accomplish anything at the races today. Sad. Yurk got 4th at least that is decent.

The one by PR is off a county road and unpaved road.  The only part visible from any road is to the east or west of the snip.

That is Johnny Green's track.  Other then that, I do not know much about it.

4th seems pretty decent to me in a class Doo dominates by a wide margin.

Huge. Doo is stacked again. Hopefully yurk can stay healthy and consistent and end up in the top 5. He is a family friend. I personally don’t know him but I know a lot of people that do. He is best friends with my friend’s kid. I think getting away from all finish will be a good thing for him hearing what my friend had to say.
