    Awsome footage To bad u blew a belt if u don’t mind me asking OEM or aftermarket. Man i miss racing here in the east. Raced cats many years SX and pro XC. Many wins and championships during my career all on cats. Unfortunately 2017 was my last year racing was fighting carpel tunnel both hands from 2015 to 2017 it was awful. Had surgery in 2018 along came many more challenges and illnesses like a downward spiral it was. Healthy Now but im old and to fat lol!! Going to try getting my shit together and maybe try a couple races next season. Already looking forward to next season this one sucked here in upstate NY like a lot of places did. Those water races can be challenging keeping water out I remember a few. Look great out there to bad u cant find the speed last few years racing i couldn’t find it either very challenging and frustrating frustrating sometimes. But if anyone can do it find it I know u guys will. Thanks for sharing really enjoyed watching good luck next season.

      I’m guessing they are running the 600cc twins. Stock that’s about 120hp give or take. Cat riders are using the American made Cat 600 twin. Which is a pretty good engine so the new riders tell me. But racing like this isn’t what 95 percent of riders do so you’ll push things past limits quicker. Arctic Insider said speeds were in the high 90s peak I think. But damn that track is rough. More like a snow cross corner in that one spot!

    On the good ole two stroke motorcycles air cooled such as a Yamaha RD-350 if you don't un-tork the head bolts in gradual steps very carefully they will crack. Seems you racers are pulling the heads off all the time.. Probably using electric t impact wrenches as opposed to doing it carefully and slowly with a ratchet. Bottom line not only do you have to torque aluminum heads in gradual steps you have to antique them the same way . Copper head gaskets can even be re-used if you heat them and make them soft again. I have read it have not worked on two strokes for decades..
