Arctic Cat 2010 snowmobiles

Still Powering Up! Cat extends turbo line, adds a racy Sno Pro 500
Thief River Falls, Minn. - Lets face facts, Arctic Cat has been kicking some major bootie on the snocross circuit this year, thanks to its updated race sled and one Mr. Tucker Hibbert.

That success is timely too, as Cat has been trumpeting its lineup of "The Worlds Fastest Snowmobiles" this season in all its marketing efforts. Now comes the 2010 line and - surprise, surprise - there are even more racy additions, for both the beginners and veterans.

At the entry level is a Sno Pro 500, built on Team Arctic's strong and fast race chassis, but with a batteryless EFI 500cc 2-stroke tucked in its belly. For the vet who has been banging the ditches, moguls, powder and corners for years, Cat drops its power monster, the 180+ hp 4-stroke turbo into a long-track Z1 Turbo EXT. Talk about in your face!
