I know this way a topic awhile back, but i was watching the busch shoot out. I seen Tony Stewart race car and i was just ceriouse why his car didnt have any arctic-cat stickers on it. Arctic-cat has them in there book and sled made after him. Why cant he put stickers on his car to give us cat guys some support ?? I would like to appologize for spelling at this time and any bashing and the list goes on. I dont want to pick a fight, but this really stupmed us cat guys at the cabin over the weekend. Any info would be good. Also something to add why did they even do Tony Stewart anyway ??

I think he should paint his car cat green and put the big cat head on the hood, that would look awesome. I agree with you, it is kind of dumb in my opinion....
Those stickers on those cars are outrageous to buy (each spot on the car comes at a price). I am sure that Tony is getting something from Cat but can't beleive they would spend the dollars there to get on the car

Yeah, he is getting stuff from cat, but wouldnt cat want to get out there name ?? Why doesnt Tony and his race team put one on for a cheaper price? that is the most confusing part !!
How Did Tony Stewart even get the big Arctic Cat deal? I'm not a big Nascar fan but I'm sure they're are alot of other good drivers.
I fail to see the brand synergy. Arctic Cat must be in a real hurry to flush money away. Do all those good 'old southern boys that love Nascar also love snowmobiling?

Maybe Arctic Cat will sponsor a beach volley ball tourney next? Or surfing... Ect.
It's all about Public Relations, Sponsoring and Advertising where we all will never understand. They're out there just to make money. Just another name to carry the brands on...Hell, I don't even care for Tony Stewart and his products.
Never understood the whole Tony Stewart / AC realtionship.

Why wouldn't you associate with someone who is strongly related or dominate in the snowcross. In the past you could buy a Blair Morgan edition sled. So why not a Hibbert edition? Just an example of names for the post.

Tony and his crew chief Zippy are both connected to Cat because of a big charity ride they put on every year and they just happen to be big sled fans and ride Cat's.

they made tony stewart fourwheeler too......but im a HUGE nascar fan and i live in new york, and the races i have gone to have had people fom canada and as far away as alaska, i believe they might have a litle bit of snow in that area
I was thinknig last night watching TV that I never see ads for any of the sled companies on network TV either.

Cat used to sponser a Busch car a few years ago. I thought Dick Trickle (#99?) drove it but I could be wrong on that.

Lots of money to get one of them little stickers. Cat probably does make a few more bucks with the T.S. edition sleds and quads the way it is. He's a popular driver.
I was down to Bristal for a the spring race about 4-5 years ago, my buddies are all Dale JR fans and CHEVY and Ski-doo boys,, Myself, Dodge and Cat, the Sunday after the races were over, and on our way out you sit in traffic for quite a while, and all the racers Trucks and Trailers come by, Well Dale JR's big red Budweiser Rig came by and what was on the back of it?,,, ARCTIC CAT I took a picture of it, and had to rub it in to the Dale Jr ski doo boys, Jr is now a Polaris sponser, and they have a Jr 4 Wheeler. Anyway, Maybe its on Stewarts Trailer, I have seen alot of ads and I even have a Older T-shirt of Arctic Cat Official ATV of Nascar.
If you saw Tony's sprint car that he raced in the Chili Bowl in Oklahoma back in January I think it was, he won the race, the photo shown in Autoweek magazine had a big Arctic Cat sticker right on the left side panel. Tony races in several differant race series and owns several different cars for those series that are more local, so getting a small sponsorship in those other local series has to be tons cheaper and still gets decent exposure.
