The skeptics now have nothing to doubt as the recent F1000 dyno numbers prove that the Cat faithful have been right all along. The independent and reputable Dynotech Reasearch of Batavia, NY recently tested a brand new F1000 that was delivered directly from the Arctic Cat factory to Dynotech’s facilities in New York. It was quickly discovered that twin stock bore put out a respectable 165HP. They knew that the power plant had much more potential so with only 2 very minor and inexpensive mods, the motor shelled out an impressive 182 HP. Now with only one day of testing and tuning of the new AC mill, we know that there is much more to be unleashed from the sleeping beauty. 200 HP with a stock block is not out of the question!

The new Cat sleds are just starting to roll out of Thief River Falls and we are sure to bring you more information about these impressive sleds. Many say this is the year of the cat, but that is something Arctic Cat fans have known since early March. We can only ask one question to our competition: “How frustrating is it looking at our snow flaps all day long?”
