Jackson Hillclimb - no AC 🙁!!!

[Chewy22]

Stopped by the hillclimb yesterday morning and it was sad/weird not seeing AC there. This wait and see what happens is brutal!!! Truly hope someone keeps the new chassis going, it’s a winner. The M7 was my all time favorite sled, this Catalyst trumps it.

Agreed, this year is the first Cat I’ve bought in 18 years. Grew up riding Cats and I just couldn’t do the new chassis in 2012. Grabbed a 858 mountain cat in February, and I’ll say Catalyst is a great mountain chassis! Hope someone gets the ball rolling with Cat soon, and makes a small release for 2026. If they don’t what little momentum that was created with the Catalyst chassis will be fading.

To be honest it’s really sad to keep customers at bay like this. If there done atleast let us know. I like the catalyst but valves will plummet and I don’t want to fall with them.

I think the thread is referring to Arctic Cat as a company was not present.

Correct - no AC booth and no 26s!

That’d draw a crowd too.

AC at the hillclimb would be one not to miss.

On Arctic Cat, if I'm contemplating selling a business......I'm selling like crazy. They should have been there with a booth and support for the racers in the lineup who are bleeding green like few others. I hope Cat lives on to be a presence at Jackson down the road, but do not understand why Textron mailed it in already no matter the size and clout of their remaining business units.

Because they were losing 10s of millions the last several years? Executives want to keep their jobs while they can, and that makes them do things where they can save money. There likely isn't anyone left in marketing for cat. Very few dsms/sales left.

Thanks for sharing that perspective.
