Opinions on side by sides

They've been using the 1000cc 90 degree twin motor in the Thundercat(atv) and Prowler 1000 since 2008 but they will be making some tuning changes for it in the Wildcat.

Chad@M&M

What is the current H.P. rating ( not what they wish and hope to improve upon) on that 1000 c.c. engine that A/C has been building for a few years now?

And did you hear that Wildcat actually fire up and run? Be honest now.

Remember, it was you that firmly stated that A/C "Just caught up to the RZR"

That's kinda like leaving the front porch light on for Jimmy Hoffa to return home.

kraven700...it's ok to be scared.

By your response, (and avoiding my previous ????) I confirms that;

1) NO one ever heard the fictitious beast run

2) The H.P. on the existing 1000 A/C engine is less then the XP's 88 H.P.

3) Save your $$$ for next summer and perhaps we can meet at Silver Lakes Sand Dunes for a friendly little drag race and post that video.

Hope you like eating sand.........................................................................................

and , BTW, Neil Marietta says you talk a lot of smack and you'll never buy a UTV anyway

kraven700-

I gotta chuckle a bit. In just one single post you claimed to be not brand loyal, but in the rest of the 2 dozen or so in this tread, you have clearly indicated otherwise.

It's all good, you clearly love the RZR and like to stick up for Polaris. Nothing wrong with that at all. I just had to say I got a good chuckle.

I'll admit I can talk my fair share of smack. Nothing like yourself or your buddy, Neil. BTW, next time you talk to Neil, tell him thanks for inviting me over for steaks the other night, they were great!

Why would I buy a UTV...I'm a dealer...I'll demo it!

the current HP on the AC 1000 is less than 88hp. They did say that the Wildcat will have more but they didn't have numbers for us. Not sure where your obsession with hearing it run comes from as they have had the 1000cc motor out for a while, IT DOES RUN. And lets not forget that this was just a sneak peak of the new Wildcat at the snowmobile dealer meeting and they told us that it will be in the 2012 line up.

Chad,

Just the facts, no obsession to hear it run. Just looking for a little side by side race, that's all. (And not on the video PlayStation version)

Point being it's a friggin concept vehicle that hasn't been test driven by anyone yet and it goes back to your original post, "Looks like Arctic Cat just caught up to the RZR", lol. Based on what, an Arctic Cat sales pitch?

So, you didn't hear it run in the Wildcat. period.

Will we meet up in Silver Lakes for a little drag racing?

When you were at Neil's (which you weren't) did you put some stain out on the rear deck on the trail?

Well John, my main goal in life is to entertain those around me.........................

I support what works, have Sea-Doo + Yamaha on waverunners, POLARIS on sleds,
and clearly the RZR is the ONLY game in town.

And for the record (can be confirmed on RZRFORUMS) Prior to the ACTUAL RELEASE of the RZR XP, last fall I was serious about swapping a Z1-Turbo into the old-style RZR-S, which is what Chad at WASTELAND is now doing.

As I posted here before, I feel that SUZUKI has the best h.p. and more reliable than most engines out there.

Arctic Cat attempting to build their own engines is a recipe for disaster...................................

Just look at the Prowler from a design standpoint, looks like a golf cart with Green Stickers on it, complete with vertical roll bar tubes.

Even Stevie Wonder can see that

Real sporty...................................lol

I'm sorry, I thought we were discussing the "soon to be" Wildcat and not the Utility/sport Prowler. Comparing the rollbar on the current prowler to your RZR is like comparing the boxes and saying the box on the RZR is worthless...witch it is, but that's not why you bought it. Nobody buys a Prowler to go the dunes either. Your RZR is a cool machine. Why do you think AC dealers are excited about gettin the Wildcat? Calm down, there's room for all of us to play.

OH GEEZ! Your talking about Neil Sr.!?! Ok this all makes much more sense now.

That was in response to John's post

Don't be so anxious to answer for others.

You and I were discussing the Wildcat, nothing else

ARCTIC CAT Sales must be slow today.........................

So, you should have some extra time in the Summer to run with me in Silver Lakes

 

[chad66]

Sales are always slow in April when it's snowing out. That and this had just become entertaining to me! It's all in good fun, Kraven. And if I had more time to get out and play AND was a bit closer I'd love to come and race you at the dunes! Win or lose I'd have fun!!

Well, I'd be willing to come up and ride the U.P.

I'm sure we can find a nice stretch on the Bill Nichol's trail for a little side by side racin'

 

[kraven700]

Neil who's in his early 50's, used to own Bunker Hill and sold it last year

Yup...trust me there are only one SR. and one JR. I know them both, I'm good friends with Jr.

The U.P. is a great place to ride in the summer so I encourage you to make the trip up any time of year!

If they're your friends, then you should get over there and stain his deck, get some new candy canes stocked in the container and a new sign in sheet, and get the lights back-up across the trail again

We should video the RZR-XP vs. the WILDCAT and post it on you tube, if they ever build it, that is................................................................................................

BTW, Exactly where's M&M located?

I said I was good friends with Jr. And staining anything SUCKS! I didn't even finish my own deck last year.

M&M Is next to the bridge in Hancock, across the street from the Ramada Inn.

WHEN they build it! WHEN WHEN WHEN!!! It's a 2012 model...it's coming!

I'm all for running the Wildcat against your XP 900...promise me you wont cry, I hate to see a grown man cry over anything but spilled beer!

I've been there, it's in that older building (built with character + quality nonetheless) that sells Yami's as well.

Racing you ask, it's not my first rodeo, lol

You never answered my question if you like eating sand?
