The Boss Cat Legacy

Here is a little background on myself and the "Boss Cat Legacy". I grew up in Fisher, MN which is a town of about 400 people just west of Crookston MN and 45 minutes south west of Thief River Falls. My father's best friend, and a man that has been pretty much like an uncle to me, is Paul Eggebraaten. He started his snowmobile racing career in the 67 I-500. In 68 he came in fourth on a Panther. He raced on the factory oval team from 70-73 and was heavily involved in the Boss Cat program. He raced both the BC II and the BC III. I also grew up in the same area as other AC greats, namely Dale Cormican, Denny Ray, Charlie Loften, Roger Janssen and Vern Ricard. It's not hard to have the interest I do after growing up with the stories of these guys. I also worked at Arctco in the early 90's, mostly on the start of the Tigershark program. My website, which I started in 2005, has really been a joy to develop. I wanted to create a one stop website for distributing information on everything that was and is "Arctic Cat".
