142mph Z!

Thief River Falls, Minn. (Sept. 28, 2009) – Weekend after weekend, Team Arctic racers are proving
they are the ones to beat when piloting the World’s Fastest Stock Snowmobiles.

Instead of shredding grass, Team Arctic speed aces turned their attention to the Martin, Michigan
Speedway to burn rubber on the asphalt. Piloting a stock 2010 Z1 Turbo, Team Howard’s, Jeff
Jaquish from Racine,Wi., shattered Glen Hall’s previous 2009 Z1 Turbo record of 137.99mph and a
9.395 E.T. with a 142mph pass and a 9.006 E.T. in the ¼ mile.



Team owner Billy Howard said of the record, “We were hoping for the first 8 second pass, but this
record really gets me excited for the speed of these stock Z1 Turbos. Just like Glen Hall’s Z1 Turbo
last year, ours had the stock skid, stock motor and stock turbo. We can both honestly say that Arctic
Cat does make the World’s Fastest Snowmobiles!”

I am very tempted to buy a new Z1 and put a 162 under it . I thought we would see more of these by now , giving the TNytro's a run for there money.


It sounds like the mill makes good power. I wonder how it likes lots of boost?


I guess if i did not like the big heavy trail sled 162 i could always try to shoe horn the mill into another chassis.

What are your thoughts MM? You got one for a shop sled yet?

Did they turn up the boost on these sleds, or were they ran at stock boost levels?

mmsports,
Did you guys run that Z1 turbo you built very much? I am curious to hear how one would do compared to a turboed nytro.
