UTV Off-Road Magazine Prowler XTZ 1000 Buildup...

ravencr · 2009-01-14 20:56:05

Hey guys,

Our brand new 2009 Arctic Cat Prowler XTZ 1000 was picked up today by Bruce @ SB Fabworks to begin the tear down to build the ultimate desert racer. A huge thanks goes out to Arctic Cat for sponsoring us this year, so we have huge plans for a successful year of racing. Because of the timing, though, we were hoping to complete a full series of BITD, but we'll be missing a couple of the first races as we complete the buildup. There's a few key races in SCORE we might run, and we're planning on competing heavily in Whiplash, as well.

Stay tuned as we get pictures of the Prowler in stock form from SB Fabworks: www.SBFabworks.com in the next couple of days.

On this thread, we'll keep everyone abreast of what's going on with the build, of course run articles in the magazine, and cover the races we're racing. And, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Jared, if you would drop a few pounds you would be just as fast as Ruth

Look foward to the build Chris.

LOL...I was merely referring to her obvious superior driving skills, but now that you mention it, it's obvious who we'd choose to race it for us. LOL!

Ummmmmm...... Nice pictures Chris! :twisted:

Please tell me your doing something with that cage.

So how does the power feel compaired to your RZR?

ravencr · 2009-02-01 08:17:20

Yeah, unlike our current race RZR build, we're tearing the Prowler down to the bare frame and building it from the frame up. We're going to be running 30" tires, as well, which given the motor can pull it, that will net us 95+ miles per hour top speed.

...that will net us 95+ miles per hour top speed.

:shock:

ravencr · 2009-02-23 18:57:59

Well, it's stripped down to the frame...awaiting pics from SB Fabworks. Does anyone know if anyone makes heady duty aftermarket spindles and hubs for the XTZs?

Chris

MR. KRYPTONITE · 2009-03-20 12:53:38

Well where are some updates on this Chis? Looking forward to seeing new pix and info.

ravencr · 2009-03-20 13:32:55

You and me both...

Chris
