[@patrickyoung5726]

Love seeing all those old sleds. I remember my Dad bringing home our first sled. A ‘69 Sno-Jet. I think that was around 1976. Thanks for the great video.

[@mattsws]

Must be such a nice memory!! Thanks for sharing and glad you enjoyed the video! Take care!

Love to see these sleds being restored. My first sleds were an '80 and '81 Blizzard 5500. Miss those days for sure....

[@mattsws]

That’s what fun about these shows is all the great memories they bring back! Thanks for watching!!!

[@PMP5240-e3i]

Great video as usual Matt.. appreciate you sharing the goods from Quebec.. had no idea they made Sea-doos that far back..

[@mattsws]

Yeah I think Bombardier invented them in the late 60s but only made them for a couple years… Then they brought them back in the 80s! Thanks for watching!!!

[@mnmarlin6074]

That 650 Sno Pro of Yvon's is freakin awesome! Beautiful! Thanks for sharing!

[@mattsws]

Yeah it was really special to see it in person. Almost unreal! Glad you enjoyed!!!

[@wayneh8767]

These are the best shows skis down! That 5500 Blizzard wow!!! Did you see any Kawasaki sleds.? Is it weird if I was drooling?!

[@mattsws]

Lol! Glad you enjoyed! There must have been a few cats with Kawasaki engines in them, but I didn’t end up filming them… Thanks for watching!!!

[@patmayer7222]

Nice video Matt. I'm hoping to get to the 24 show. I had to choke down some sorrow when I didn't see any John Deere machines. I wondered if there were any, or if the rain just caused you to run out of time, to get to those. Over here in Saint Albans Vt. John Deere was an iconic brand for our family. My first sled when I was about 14, was a 1974 JDX4 Special. The "Special" meant that it had sliders instead of boggie wheels. I think they may have only made that specific sled for one year. Keep up the good work.

[@mattsws]

If you make it to the 2024 show, come say hi if you see me! I don’t remember specifically if there were any JDs this year. I know in 2022 they were a couple. Thanks for the comment and see you this summer!!!!

In 1976 I raced the Artic cat Z 250 for 1 race at the USSA east opener in Jackman Maine. We had our butts handed to us by the Merc Snow twister. My dad took the 2 Z's he bought back to the dealer because they promised it to be the fastest new sleds to race in Juinor 1 and J2. My brother and I had new Mercs the following week, as did all the other teams. Man it was great to see that 1976 Cat Z one more time at the beginning of the video. Thanks for that snippet and the rest of the memories in this video.

[@mattsws]

Really glad you enjoyed!!! Thanks for sharing the memories. Take care!

You went right by the northway collection. A couple are surely from my brother Andrew Taylor collection. Andy left us in 2022. He restored 7 northway . He worked at factory in 71 or so.

[@mattsws]

Take a look at my 2022 show video. I do a small segment on them and even show one of them in action at one of out annual winter runs. Glad to hear your brother helped keeping those wonderful machine alive for generations to come! Thanks for watching, take care!

[@stephenh5166]

Another fantastic film Matt! Already getting excited for the coming winter, these videos add fuel to the fire of getting the fleet running and ready to ride.

[@mattsws]

Yeah I’m pretty excited for winter as well! Glad you enjoyed this one!!! Take care!

[@glenmallory9982]

1973 Cat EXT oval sleds are real rare. Most were run into the ground racing. Twin plug Kawasaki motors. That sound they made is in my dna.

[@mattsws]

Couldn’t agree more! Thanks for watching!!!

[@Anson-kz9pj]

I think the late 70s,80s had the best looking machines ever

[@mattsws]

I totally agree!!

[@ontariotube]

Neat!

Thanks!!!

I never even heard of a Herters snowmobile before your post! Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!

[@cybair9341]

15:16 - That 1-cyl Thunderjet has the cylinder head installed the wrong way.

[@mattsws]

You have a better eye than me for that stuff!!! Do you think it makes a difference??

[@cybair9341]

@@mattsws - In a race, the head might overheat and cause pre-ignition which then can make a hole in the piston.

[@mattsws]

@@cybair9341 I just rewatched that part and sure enough, the head is on sideways... I totally see how that would mess up cooling... unless it was a DRIFT SLED!! Lol!

On ne voit jamais de motoneige Arlberg dans ces expositions. Merci du post!

Have you ever come across a 1982 SRX 500 VMax? That is a ghost sled since I believe Yamaha recalled all of them.
