Off to Fargo they go ‼️ No setup or test time ?‼️
if I were in charge… they would be racing the new chassis for XC & SX this winter.
why am I not in charge?
Because you cannot take charge of yourself? JK!
Simmer down. It’ll be alright. 🙂
the results disagree
Sweet!!!
It will be interesting to see the sno cross version of the catalyst when it comes out. Will it have ETT and the tunnel braces going up to the steering post?
I can recall launching the mid 90’s cats and how the rear of the track would contact with the straight flat tunnel.
I had no idea they waited this long to deliver these to the race teams. This seems very late and leaves little time for racers to dial them in.
They don’t start racing until January.
Wrong again. First national race is next weekend in Fargo ND.
Yup, didn’t read my 1st post ?‼️
JimR can’t read, hes just a troll on here.
Was thinking cross country. Nice of you to continue your rudeness though. The New York way?
JimR, the 6000XC are being built after the 70 6000SX. Are built ! But it takes a lot of the time . To go through the sled . To make sure everything is right. And try to find and vantage over everyone else . The competition had there’s weeks ago. The Race Shop & racers . Aren’t real happy on this late release.
Showing off your amazing brain power again….

most teams on other brands have been testing, tuning and dialing in their riders for over a month now. but seeing as the Cat racers are on the 2018 again it shouldn’t be a problem to have them a few days before the first big SX race… right?
OT, will be rooting for Kenny Mandryk in ProLite this season.
UPDATED
I’ll be supporting Kenny… regardless of whatever brand he ends up on!!!
wtf right?
Kenny ended up on a SkiDoo for One Three racing this weekend.
Pine lake is scheduled for 12-17 / 12-18. JimR you need to wake up dude!
Yes, but now not a Cor race so is it independent? Sanctioned like Cor? I do not know the answer. I just follow Cor.
and……………. cancelled.
too much snow.
Kale, Thanks for getting up to the factory and getting us some pics of the race sleds. Now it’s a mad dash to the factory to pick up race sleds and get them prepped a.s.a.p.
NICE!
Interesting that the snowcross sleds get the newer spindles while the cross country racer get the old ones.
That’s because the Cross Country sleds were on a 129 skid and the S.X. were on a 137. It was determined through a lot of testing a few years ago, that the shorter skid just worked better with the old spindles. I think it was mainly Herf. that decided that, and you can’t argue with his results.
I swear the way the guys on here treat each other is irritating. You would think we were on HCS amongst the Kool-aid drinking idiots. Chill out guys, not necessary to be douche bags to each other. SMH
,,,now back to the regularly scheduled RATIONAL discussion,,,,
Its the same guys on here from HCS lol
It’s cool to see the sleds being built. Thanks for posting pics.
Ya but they haven’t built or shipped the standard zr6000 yet. Trails open and no sled. Just like last year.
ZR6000s were built this week and are shipping.
Kale, you better check on that, I’ve been told that the only 600’s that have shipped, or will ship, before the middle of January are race program sleds.
** rideX365.com **
saw that as well… 🙁
Just heard from my dealer that the estimated delivery date for my 23 RXC is now 01/15/2023. Originally it was late October, then middle December, now middle January. Seems to be a repeat of 2022……
Textron still can’t deliver sleds on time. Surprise? I’ve got two buddies with new boosts in their garage ready to rip and snow to ride…. the prospect of ordering a new Catalyst for next year and getting it before December sounds far from promising.
Buddy just texted me . They don’t have motors . Or brake calipers. For the RXC6000 …. he’s not a happy camper ‼️
Ouch…
What are the XC racers using… 2019’s again?
Not even all the racers have gotten their XC sleds. Not goddamn happy. Thank God we save some stuff from last year…but it takes an immense amount of time to switch from ice 2 terrain.
