What's going on at Arctic Cat during the summertime warp? Hmm... I wonder if this group is still riding the gravel pit?
Bonus: A free sticker pack to the first person that can accurately ID everyone in the shot.
A nice liesurely ride in the ditch, or a top-secret test session for a new product category?
Heavy rains, another prototype Tigershark or completing a lap around the Arctic Cat test track? All the above?
Will the beer-swilling truck drivers continue to torment the local residents who are out for a stroll?
When the rains subside and the track needs water, will this crew make it to work on time and under budget?
This guy still tearing up the local tracks, sporting his favorite hat when he's hoisting the cup?
And are plans underway for another Big Show in West Yellowstone, featuring Big & Rich, Sawyer Brown and Trick Pony?

Who's the dopey looking guy with the microphone in front of the SnowBlast sign?

This is the most random post I have ever seen. Very entertaining! Brad Pake looks like he is 15 years old. He needed a mustache to fit in with that crew. The guy in the last picture is John Sandbergs child hood friend and current life mentor, very influential in the snowmobile industry! Yeeeaaaaaa!

Thanks for clarifying Train. I remember that guy riding a friggin buffalo at Haydays when SnowBlast was introduced. Felt bad for the Buffalo. That dude was big!

Way to swoop in and steal the sticker pack, Joe. Want me to send it to Cat, or hand-deliver it to you next week when I'm there?

Train: remember, random is good. So were mustaches in 1994. And yes, the guy in the last pic was a massive influence on my life, for many reasons including his bonevolence.

Whomever was driving that monster truck was really working the airhorn! Pretty funny stuff. Every now and then it puffs out a fart of a sound that resembled a horn.

you forgot to mention the rmx 250

John, you will have to send it to me as I will be out of the plant for the next two weeks. It took me a little bit to figure out that it was Scott Damiels.
By the way, take a look at the spelling of my last name. In the Brian **** article you wrote for the display up front you must have used spellcheck, it always screws up the spelling of my last name. Thanks

Not sure what is worse...those mustaches or all that 90s purple clothing? You should send out another sticker pack for the first person to produce a photo of Joey and his Pink Moto boots.
