'88 Wild Cat

[gasholic]

I am new to this forum. I was into snowmobiling about 20 yrs ago, sold everything, now my son has got me back in. I picked up an '88 Artic Cat Wild Cat very cheap. I would apprciate any info on this sled from people who have owned or ridden one. What was the rated H.P. & weight? How were they for trail & mountain (Climing) ridding? I live in Idaho. I am spending the summer doing a complete rebuild on it.(Got to do something while waiting for snow)

Thanks in advance

Welcome back to the sport. I really don't know much about the Artic Cats but would love to own a ThunderCat. I'm a Ski-Doo Guy. I'll look around and see what I can dig up for you though.

forget the thunder cat, too slow for what they are!

For how old the thundercat is it is still one of the fastest sleds out there. With a little work your looking at over 170hp. It ain't goint to touch my dad's new MachZ 1000 but still it is very powerfull

oh yeah no dought about the power, i had a 700XCR that would eat em up all day long though(man do i miss that sled). but what would be nice is a PSI Genises 1800cc moter (350hp & 215ft. lbs. of torque) bet that would be fun in a 'shee frame
