Arctic Cat Announces CMR Sponsorship and
Contingency
700 Mud Pro
Featured in Mud Pro Class
700 H1 EFI MudPro Lime |
Thief River Falls, Minn. (April 15, 2009) –
Arctic Cat revolutionized mud riding when the
Mud Pro 700H1 was introduced as a 2009 model.
Not only is it the first stock ATV designed with
snorkels and 28” mud tires that can tackle muddy
stuff out of the box, it is the first to have
its own mud racing class.
Arctic Cat will be the official sponsor of the
Mud Pro Class 2. Both Arctic Cat and
Championship Mud Racing (CMR) feel like this is
a perfect fit for the
2009 Arctic Cat Mud Pro.
“We want to show the world of mud riding
enthusiasts that the Mud Pro 700 can be
competitive off the showroom floor. That’s why
we’re going to back up the class with a larger
factory contingency”, said Ted Bettin, Team
Arctic ATV Race Coordinator.
