And thanks snowest for the opportunity. Someone is going to have an early Christmas! Hoping it goes to someone without a garage full of sleds already or is on an older sled and could really use an update. Good luck everyone!

What I would do for a new sled. The snows here and my ol 153 Yamaha is slowly coming together but a new cat might make me change my mind
Here is a reply!
So, would you like a brand new 2016 Arctic Cat sled for FREE?
In this crate is a brand new sled just waiting for us to mod.

SnoWest Arctic Cat Giveaway
So recently Arctic Cat corporate called and said they had an extra 2015 snowmobile that wasn’t assigned to anyone and wondered if I wanted to do anything with it—sort of like turn it into a project or something. They told me to think about it and let them know.
Then a few days ago I was out with the Cat engineering team riding their 2016s. Boy do those mountain sleds work. So I started asking detailed questions about the changes … and asked if there are a few spare 2016 parts lying around. After some quick negotiations (and perhaps a promise of a front cover photo to one of their guys) I managed to load up a bunch of parts for my project.
Now here’s the thing … once Cat corporate realized I had some goodies that would fit on that extra 2015, they told me I could have at it … but there would be a few stipulations.
1) I could turn the 2015 into a 2016.
2) I could add anything else to it as long as it reflected the standards of Arctic Cat.
3) I could use any forum members to offer help and suggestions along the process.
4) But I couldn’t keep the snowmobile because of my noted conflict of interest with the magazine. However, since it will be a modified sled, Cat couldn’t take it back either. So somehow I must give the sled away come next December after the build was complete.
So here’s where we stand: Christopher and I are going to start building the sled with some of the parts I appropriated from Cat’s R&D facility. We will tell you what we’re adding and why we’re adding it, but only as it’s permitted by a Cat embargo on the 2016 sleds. And we would like any and all suggestions on what other fun things we can do to make this project really special for some forum member who will receive it next Fall.
The clock is ticking. Let’s get to work.

Nothing built like a cat
I currently ride ski Doo, but would never hesitate to run a cat. Nothing built quite like a cat. They run strong and are happy to take any abuse you give out and keep on running.
