• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

I see images of prototype spyders and they have rev chassis snowmobile lights and hood (2003-2008) IMO, looks like crap!!! I certainly hope they don't go this route!! The XP SKIDOOS are good looking machines. Make them look like that if they insist on making them look like snowmobiles

Those images were early renditions of the Spyder before they evolved into the Spyder we all love. They started out looking like the REV because that is what BRP had at the time for their sleds and they just started out with that design.

I guess lucky for you the Spyder didn't keep that look. Now for me I wouldn't have cared if the Spyder had ended up looking like a REV. Nice looking machines I think. Better looking than anything Arctic Crap has came up with. Just joking, I do like the looks of the Firecats from around the 2006 time period.

Ah, that makes a lot more sense. I thought they were prototypes of possible new body styles. I never owned a cat until the firecat F7 in 2003. I really like the new cat sleds and they do have a similar appearance to the skidoo XP chassis
