Christian Brothers Racing (CBR) charges into the national snocross season with two teams representing two different Pro classes.
Flying the Pro class flag for Christian Brothers Racing aboard his Arctic Cat ZR6000R SX, is the fan favorite and all-around good guy, Logan Christian. The Team 43 trailer is backed by the talented ace wrenches of Betsy Steffl, D.J. Ekre, Mike Carver and precision tuner Kelland Bjerke. Christian enters the Duluth opener on a high note after closing out last season on the podium at the Lake Geneva finale.
“I’m genuinely excited for the Duluth opener. Team 43 looks a bit different this year and the change is motivating as I’ll be the only one racing out of that trailer,” said Christian. “Our attitudes, focus, crew and equipment are top notch, and we’re looking to post positive results for our new and longstanding sponsors. Most importantly, we want to have fun as a family this year – A cornerstone Christian Brothers Racing was built on.”
Building on the family mantra is the second Christian Brothers Racing trailer housing rookie Pro Lite racers Anson Scheele and Andy Pake. These two phenom racers have charged up the ranks quicker than a cat on race gas, which is no surprise considering their legendary last names. New to the CBR team, Pake is entering the Pro Lite arena fresh off winning the Sport class championship.
“I’m thankful to Christian Brothers Racing for the opportunity to race out of such a professionally run organization. With their help I look to improve as a racer personally and post strong results in the Pro Lite class as a rookie,” said Pake.
Teammate, Anson Scheele added, “The Pro Lite CBR trailer will be a lot of fun this season. The Pake and Scheele families are great friends, we have precision equipment and I feel strong after an off-season of cross training. We’ve also got a couple secret weapons to help wrench including Brad Pake, Kirk Hibbert, and my dad, Aaron Scheele.”

Im new to this site. I found it off of Arctic Cat Trail Riders Facebook page, and Im glad I went here. Love AC Trail Riders, but some of the comments, lashing out and talk on there are more than I can bear. Im gonna try to get more of those guys on here to get the straight scoop! After reading the Mike Kloety interview (Never knew who he was) and then seeing this Christian Brothers info about snocross, this re-energizes my love for Arctic Cat and people involved in racing. Thank you to whomever does this site. Ill be visiting all winter.
Such a great group of people , alot of talent in the trailers for this year!
WOW! Reading this just got me a little more excited for the season! Seeing Logan and his crew… The next generation Pake and Scheele boys, with their supporting crew! Awesome!
Definitely be rooting for these Cats!
Go get em guys! Always been a big fan of Logan. Would talk with him at Cat events. Such a great guy! Always been a blast to see Pake and Scheele battling it out. Can’t wait to watch you guys in action. Good luck to CBR this year. Hope all are on the podium.
