Years riding.. 35
How many sleds have you had? WOW.. hmm I think 15
What did you ride last year.. an 08 Yamaha Nytro with an Impulse race kit turbo and 174" track
What kind of horse power was that capable of? .. oh 350 I would guess. More than you need most of the time. (laughter)
Favorite riding place.. The Sierra Madres
How long have you ridden the Sierra Madres? Let's see I started going down there in 1995, So 15 years
Any secret spots.. Now they wouldn't be a secret if I told you.. I may have one or....two? (laughter)
Best day of riding? It was 2 years ago and we were in the Sierra Madres on a Wednesday after it snowed 2-2 1/2 feet the night before and we decided to stay another day and when we woke up and started to head up the mountain to the parking lot we were pushing new snow with the bumpers of our trucks. We had to play leap frog with each other to break trail We had our heads out the windows trying to find the road...
So needless to say when we finally got unloaded the sky was blue and the new snow was honestly 5 feet deep!!
It took us 4 hours to make it 10 miles to the top of the peaks.. That was some serious fun.
Hero's in snowmobiling? .... Hero's.. hmmm I would have to say my group of guys I ride with first off. They all are a blast to ride with. Secondly I would say I have one "Hero".
Bart Butcher. He has pushed me to be a better rider every year. He seems to have the no fear and some of his lines are just out of this world. Bart still claims a chute down in the Madres as the only one to make it over the top. Maybe this year!! (laughter)
What's this years sled? I am going back to Polaris and riding the new Pro RMK 163. I can't wait!!
Any mods? I may have to see how a turbo would do..(laughter) I have a problem with boost. (laughter)
Goals for this snowmobiling season.. I am looking forward to working with Karst Motorsports and helping them in promoting their business.
I have plans on having organized rides at least once a month maybe more if need be, To take their cliental down to the Sierra Madres and show them everything from basic side hilling to the more advance carving and how to control your sled like never before. I also want to show people what the new Pro RMK is capable of doing and let them get on my sled and see for themselves and feel the improvement that Polaris has made on this years mountain sleds.
I also want to take the groups to the chutes we climb and see if anyone wants to tackle the likes of "Turbo Chute" "The Wall" or my favorite "Grande Huevos"
I plan on having a hot lunches and prizes to give away on each of these rides. I know everyone will have a blast and I think they will fill up fast.
Who knows I might even give up a "secret spot" (laughter)
Thanks David for your time. We at Karst Motorsports are looking forward to this year with you on board with us and riding the new Polaris Pro RMK!
