With the snocross season fast approaching, it’s time for Kirk Hibbert to pick out a production Sno Pro 600 race sled for his son Tucker, who happens to be Arctic Cat’s most decorated racer.

For the past several years, Kirk Hibbert has made a point of selecting the sled with a serial number ending with 68 – Tucker’s racing number. With the 2010 Sno Pro models on the production line right now at Arctic Cat, there was a concerted effort to mark the occasion.

Arctic Cat employees made a sign and attached it to the sled, indicating the hope (and pride) the company feels for its most decorated racer. The sign reads “Tucker Hibbert’s 2010 X-Games Winning Sled.”

Knowing that Kirk and Tucker will powder-coat (in black) all of the green-painted production parts, each person on the assembly line signed their name to the green parts, to wish them the best of luck this coming season.
