HERFINDAHL 1-2 IN NISSWA – ARCTIC CAT WINS 12 OF 19 CLASSES

Zach Herfindahl Racing checked in with this report from Nisswa.

“Saturday Pro open final we ran a flawless race running away with the lead and bringing home a good win for the team.

Emily Pearl Photography captured an incredible sequence of a rare Herfindahl off during Sunday’s Pro Stock final. You can see it on Zach Herfindahl Racing Facebook page.

Sunday in the Pro stock final I made a suspension change that ended up being a bad decision. A couple crashes later and I brought the sled home for a tough Second place.

If ZR’s had the ALPHA single-beam rear rail, this is how I (Kale) imagine taking all trail corners.

I will always give it my all for my guys and family/fans and I think after wrecking 3 times Sunday and pushing through showed the best of that. Thank you all for the continued support! Photos: @aspiess328 / @emilypearl_photography”

Historically, Ive always enjoyed these types of photos of Team Arctic Factory race sleds sitting outside the Factory hauler. This one taken by Brown Racing at Nisswa.

TEAM ARCTIC RACERS WIN 12 OF 19 NISSWA CLASSES

Lots of snow made Nisswa a classic rough cross country terrain race. Below is a list of Team Arctic top three finishes from COR Powersports.

After around 90 brutal miles of whooped out ditches, Zach Herfindahl was the first to cross the line, starting fourth and finishing with a total time of 1 hour 47 minutes 2 seconds. He claimed the Pro Open win making it his second win in this division this season. – Photos and Caption by Emily Pearl Photography

  1. Imagine if they had a competitive sled. Ha ha! They need a new chassis. Ha ha! Best sled cat has ever done to be honest. Great job guys and gals.

  2. Kale, there’s a certain magazine out there . That’s always Complaining-about inside ski lift. Looking at that pic. I don’t see a problem. I’m thinking they need to learn how to ride the sled better. The Alpha ZR, i’d buy it !

    • Hey Justin, Team Arctic racers use a mix of both lengths depending on the year of the ZR model, and/or the type of course. The 2022 ZR6000R XC is a 129.

  3. Awesome! Congratulations to all the Cat drivers and teams! Man those Cats are awesome looking. They perform pretty good too:). Don’t change anything.

  4. Gabby’s sled looks fricken amazing with that wrap! It’s like a time warp or something! Arctic Cat should start factory offering your wraps Kale! Keep up the great work on the site man I check it every day.

  5. Looks like a long list of juniors on Cats, and they seem to be doing very well, which looks very good for the future of Team Arctic Racing.

  6. The course was quite the rodeo. I don’t know of a single pro rider that didn’t end up off his sled at least once. Herf did it three times on Sunday. Some pretty sore dudes Mon morning. Thankfully no really serious injuries. Will try again next weekend.

  7. Every year I say the same thing. Congrats to the new sled guys. I also want to take my helmet off and bow for the guys running the first generation 6000 El-Tigre in the vintage class. That design is now 45 years old AND STILL WINNING RACES!
