2024 Arctic Cat Catalyst

the other thing is i find the cat and polaris are "similar" a guy that rides either one can jump back and forth fairly easily. The skidoo you need to give it some more time to figure out your body positions to make it do the same things. And vise versa, if you only know skidoo your going to need some serious seat time on a cat or polaris to feel comfortable

I hopped on a Gen 4 turbo 154 for a weekend and it didn't take much time at all to adjust to, was a fun sled for sure. Found myself looking for a Gen 5 154 turbo after that weekend.

No 858s yet . They would have to race in the open mod class . 600 s and some with super chargers

This is very accurate, I could go from my cats to dads Polaris sleds or that demo 2013 rmk I had for a season and it was no big deal. Hopping on a doo was always like trying to learn a new language. The G5 is way closer handling characteristics to cat and poo and after 10 minutes on my buddies g5 turbo last year I thought I could definitely ride one of these with some slight changes. A month later I had one and so far this year it’s growing on me. I’ve had some awesome days on it

600 Catalyst Solid Turbo is snappy as hell - ZERO lag.. extremely light and fun to ride -actually very weird riding such a light sled with power.. it's deceiving.

He might be closer than you think at altitude with turbo vs NA?

Maybe in Colorado, but Valemount is 6500’

So we're taking about 140 vs 180hp?

Someone do the math lol. We need to get to the bottom of this.
