This was not in reference to the original Wild Cat, but in reference to the wild Cat XX platform. The XX chassis, roll cage and suspension design is very good and from a geometry standpoint is better then the radius rod design rear suspension the other brands are doing. I would hope the car...

What would it take to sell your current UTV or UTV you have on order? Would you buy a UTV based on the Arctic Cat Wild Cat XX, with minor body & cockpit change improvements, that comes in a 2 or 4 seat configuration. It would have a 1000cc, 3 cylinder low boost turbo for reliability, that...

Speed does not come with or offer a tool to open the secondary clutch, but it’s designed to open using a small crows foot pry bar. HM makes a bitchen (but expensive) tool to open the secondary and locks it open so if you had to get strands out of it, it’s allot easier and less scary of getting...

Anytime a charge is processed to my CC’s, or debit cars, I get a email & text message notice. I also have two factor authentication if you try to log on to my accounts. In the past year someone tried to buy stuff using my card #, but I caught it instantly because of the text alert. I locked...

I did not think it had anything to do with RG? I thought we were talking about Ford trucks, I-beams and a roll over. Do you have Speed derangement syndrome? Not everything is an about RG. Don’t let him live in your head rent free. Sorry for talking trucks & Rangers on this shit show of a...

I used to have a 87 Ranger with the 2.9 V6. The trans was built up by Valley Transmission , who back in the day did lots of the Ford race trans transmissions. So they had all the tricks in it, minus the manual valve body. Then I had Tim Lawerence (TLR) who did a bunch of class 7 trucks. We put...

If you want to get technical. It was the right rear tire that was going down or very low on pressure and looks to be pulling off the beadlock. Once that dug into the berm it threw the truck in the air. Then the I-beam front suspension which your not going to turn back when at full lock digs...

That trucks first problem was a rear flat tire going down. You could see it folding over and pulling off the beadlock. Once it dug in to the berm it was all over. Also the front twin I-beam suspension is awesome for cheap wheel travel, but it’s got goofy geometry, which definitely did not help it.

Exactly, they step out of their wheelhouse and look what happened. IMO Craig Scanlon ran TAP/4WP as his personal piggy bank. Sponsoring his racing teams, sponsoring friends, and everything from multi truck TT teams, KOTH teams, signing drivers to endorsements deals and building his personal 3...

Here is another article about the closing of Arctic Cat. https://www.startribune.com/arctic-cat-owner-stopping-all-production-could-sell-the-minnesota-snowmobile-and-atv-maker/601196949 Here is another article with an interesting paragraph in the article. “In a filing with the SEC on...

For those that don’t know the history of Polaris, here is a history timeline I did over a year ago about Polaris. https://www.race-dezert.com/forum/threads/the-history-of-polaris.144906/ Here is the history timeline I did for Arctic Cat. After reading both you will see how intertwined the two...

There are several reasons why a brand might buy and own another brand. In Polaris case they have been known to buy a brand at the bottom & build it up. Polaris Bought Indian Motorcycles when they owned Victory Motorcycles and made Indian so successful that Polaris eliminated the Victory brand...

100%. The biggest problem with Arctic Cat is not just Arctic Cat, it’s Textron. I never understood why they purchased the company, as from day 1 you could see they did not know the industry, they never brought in the right people or were willing to spend some money to build it back up. Arctic...

I’ve been keeping an eye on the recent news with Arctic Cat & Textron. A couple months ago Textron said due to softening demand, higher interest rates, and overstocked dealer inventory, Textron said Arctic Cat would finish building the 2025 model Snowmobiles and stop all production in December...

I’m 100% confident a few independent teams racing a Speed would have better results then RG & team have had.

What I believe was said was for the cage & chassis to be Score race legal, you would need to weld up the tube connectors and add door bars and the chassis will pass tech. No other brand can say that. Race results 100% show the Pro R & Mav R are ahead of Speed. But are those cars stock? Its a...

The car was never advertised as race ready. The chassis was inspected early on by Score tech, and the upper cage was said it could be race legal with some modifications. No other brand cage could be made race legal. As far as the OEM suspension & geometry is way more race capable than the other...

Seems to be ok in the video. But he’s riding by himself. Let the guy try to keep pace and go where other N/A UTV’s and turbos are going in the dunes and you will see the KRX not do as well. Again my friend could get around most of dunes ok. But the fact is the 2019 RZR N/A car which is 3hp less...

A good friend has the two seat KRX. He’s taken the car to the Glamis, but it’s a dog in the dunes. He gets around, but he’s not climbing hills or going fast. He bought the System 3 SS360 tires for the rear, and it helped a bunch vs the hard pack knobby tires, but it’s definitely not a dune car...
