sled of the year


The 98 artic cat powder special was named sled of the year by Sno West magazine.  It is 599 cc engine rated 105 horse.  It came out with a 136 track with 2 inch paddle. It is a twin cylinder 2 stroke engine. It also came out with EFI and came with extra wide skis that gave more flotation. They got rid of the trailing arm system and went to the double- wishbone AWS V suspension this gave the sled a smoother ride. Then they made the tunnel deeper to give more suspension more travel. This is the snowmobile I ride and so far it has been a really good sled whenever I start it up it never takes more than 3 pulls on the rope and it handles amazingly well in the powder I would recommend this snowmobile to anybody.

It sounds like it's meant for a lot of snow. What's the minimum it can handle?
