Hey guys, I have been forgetting to post this, so here it is. Congratulations to the Nicholas Cycle Racing Team for being the first Polaris sponsored riders. I hope you guys help Polaris get into sponsorship even more, and I hope Polaris helps you out on your way to the top. Good job all riders, and Doug and Wes Nicholas for all of the hard work.

 

Great work guys. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Congrats Doug and crew.

 

What type of racing is Polaris sponsering?

 

Mostly everything but atv, watercraft, snowmobiles. I cant believe nicholas cycle is thats awesome wish i were<

 

They are sponsoring all of Nicholas Cycle's Racing team......which includes about everything you can think of with an atv....from Drag racing, to mx.....and from harescrambles to mud bogs.

 

Thanks for the heads up, Brad, if porlais gets into sponsored riders or helps out. I would say about dam time.
But where is h.p.d. on this, no help, or not going there or what.
Thanks for the info.


later

 

Where is hpd??? As in what? Not sure what you mean, but if you mean why aren't they sponsoring hpd.....then my response would be that I think that Doug Nicholas produces better parts, and can get better performance....and they have a large team to sponsor, and they are looking to grow. If you mean why isn't hpd helping sponsor the team too, well they kinda do....Doug and Daryl(hpd) talk a lot and Doug tests a lot of daryl's parts. They help eachother out a lot, so all is well.

 

i wouldnt go saying they make better parts and better performance than hpd,i was just on the hpd site and this is a quote from doug himself "I have built Polaris 400's since they were introduced. I have ported them in several configurations with stock bore all the way up to the big bore pistons, and your Power Valve cylinder smokes them all anywhere in the RPM range. It also seems to come on sooner with good power and pulls longer. It is hard to compare the max power it puts out, because it has so much more than anything else that I have tried" maybe they have better parts for the predator,but for the 400,it sounds like hpd has them beat..

 

oh yes.....very true, I guess I worded that weird. They both produce high quality performance parts. I think HPD has a lot of money to produce the parts(which Doug is starting to do himself too), but they usually send their first part to Doug to see if it needs changes, and he sends it back with how he makes it work. So they work in unison. I know Doug uses hpd parts, for the 400 and the pred(drag pipe), and he likes them too. I was just saying that I think Doug know more about how to make a product(wether it be his or hpd's) perform to its greatest ability. Like the powermaxx motor, hpd produced it, but I think Doug has made it run like a streak of ****. Either way, I'm not knocking either, they are both great producers, and I enjoy both of their contributions to Polaris performance.

 

Hey, Im new here at this forum and I ran across your post. Can you give me any more infor about this sponsoship. I'm running a Predator 500 out here in California. I'm racing MX - Intermediate. I'm looking for sponsors. I have one local shop that has been helping me out.
