It wasn’t too long ago that Arctic Cat found itself in limbo. The brand, once a dominant force in snowmobiles and off-road machines, had grown quiet, too quiet. But that started to change when Brad Darling, a familiar name in the powersports world, stepped in and took control. For longtime fans, this was more than just a leadership shuffle. It signaled something deeper: Arctic Cat was getting back to its roots.
And now, the clearest sign yet: Team Arctic is officially returning to snowmobile racing for the 2025-2026 season.
It’s a big deal, not just for the racers gearing up for a comeback, but for the industry as a whole. Arctic Cat’s racing legacy spans over 60 years, with a deep bench of riders, engineers, and fans who’ve always seen the racetrack as more than just competition. It’s a proving ground. A workshop at speed. And a huge driver of innovation.
