Today is a whole new ballgame for Arctic Cat, their dealers, us as consumers, and quite frankly, the way an OEM is conducting business in the snowmobile industry!

Beginning now, ArcticInsider is officially back! Yep, after six months of having gone fishin’, this hangout will once again serve up news, insight and inside views on the world of Arctic Cat, albeit with a twist...

New news coming October 14th, 2019!

Next weekend is the 36th Annual Ride With The Champs (RWTC) and Snowmobile Hall of Fame (SHOF) weekend, and it's going to be one of the best.

In addition to the SHOF induction of racing greats Todd Wolff, Jim Kedinger, Goodwin Brothers Racing and Dick Bahr, this year's event has the added entertainment of a special appearance by racing/freestyler/jumper Levi LeVallee during the Friday Night Fish Fry (during which he'll talk about his incredible career, including the still-amazing video above).

Add to the mix the SHOF's great new display building, incredible collection of historic race sleds and 90% likelihood that I will do or say something ridiculous, and you're pretty much guaranteed to experience a weekend you'll never forget.

But to do that, you gotta go.

Arctic Cat ATVs and side-by-sides are now available as TRACKER-branded machines at Bass Pro Shops and Cabela's stores, combining the guts of machines designed and built in Thief River Falls with the skin and retail presence of massive North American retailers.

Click to read the official press release.

There's a lot of game-changing hype in the release as well as some missing details (such as, will these retail locations provide service or not, and which exact models are we talking?), but I see this in a similar light as Arctic Cat building a dedicated version of the Prowler Pro for Caterpillar.

The new partnership with TRACKER will sell more TRF-designed-and-built machines to more customers, which is a good thing. I have hope that it will mean more service/support opportunity to existing Arctic Cat dealers.

It seems like winter is on cue this year, at least for much of North America.

I know weather is local, and that what's on the ground at your house might not be the same at mine. That said, I'm PUMPED that I live in a band that delivered about 5 inches on Saturday night, and that there are tracks in yards and ditches near me.

Now entering its second year, the Arctic Cat ZR 200 has even more going for it than being a sweet sled capable of giving young (and old) riders an awesome and very real snowmobile experience.

The "more" I'm talking about is sweet accessory/custom options for those so inclined. Like a Snocross Handlebar Kit, Speedometer, Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit and more.

Serious question: Is there any piece of clothing GREATER than a T-Shirt?

I can't think of one. But I can thing of some T's that are greater than others.

These are some of the Pulitzer and Nobel prize-winning options available from Arctic Cat.

Engineered, tested and proven by the Black Cats team, the new BC Rear Bumper and BC Running Boards are some sweet custom options for many Arctic Cat sleds.

Check 'em out.

I'm telling you, the Annual Snowmobile Hall of Fame (SHOF) induction ceremony and Ride With The Champs (RWTC) weekend in St. Germain, Wis., is an incredible weekend of people, history, stories, riding, laughter and even a few tears.

The inductees for 2019 are: Dick Bahr, Team Goodwin, Jim Kedinger and Todd Wolff.

They along with dozens of past (and future) inductees, as well as a couple hundred fans of the sport, will make St. Germain the epicenter of snowmobile history Feb. 15-16, 2019.

Also right here and right now, is the Arctic Cat Modular Helmet with Electric Shield.
