Any of them got any write ups about Polaris Pro-X's, preferably model year 2003. I would like to read what the press wrote about my sled when it was new.

03 viperguy, do you have snowtechs from the "yamaha revolution" to the "stage tuning of the sx, 155 hp"?
BTW I have loads of magazines too. Even some scandinavian so you can read about "Lynx". lol

I still have a subscription for Snow Week, that started for me back in 87. I still have all the issues in order. I also have 60's 70's magazines ( Snowgoer, Snowmobiling, Snotrack), just to name a few. All stored in plastic. I have also lots of brochures, and owner manuals dating back into the early 70s. They are NOT for sale, Just wanted everone to know how bad of a snowmobile freek I am. Brad

yes you have it bad and alot of box's i bet.its cool to look back on them.i read a 2000 issue when they were talking about yamaha maybe doing a 4 stroke.said it would be 550 lbs and 100 h.p.but they did have it right about using the inline 4 motor.

rich, I read that last winter lol! I read one of my old race and rally mags last winter that was 95 I think, talked about the mxz 470 in the F chassis and how it is "Ski Doo's nasty suprise for cross country racing!" lol!! crazy that that was top tech always a fun read. I used my old car mags when I went shopping for my current car, a 00 Si. looked at reviews of it and a few others in my price range. was pretty usefull!

Funny post to read.
I've got snowmobile mags back to 1988. They are definatelly a great read. I used them to read up on the 94 vmax I just bought. It was great because you can read the subsequent years rider reports and changes to the models. Nice to know what to expect.
My kids will have fun reading them when they're older.

I have a 70 Snowmobile ( don't remember the mag title), was talking about liquid cooling as may play an important roll in the next generations sleds. Another article saying to good points and bad points of slide suspension, and the other manufactures saying they would never go the oil injection. Alway make for excellent reading. Brad
