Yup... he and the rest of his racing team are staying with Doo for 2 more years. I'm really glad to see that money didn't talk cause I'm sure the other manufactures were offering huge bucks to move. Dallas, Texas, March 4, 2006 - Bombardier Recreational Products, Inc. [BRP] and Blair Morgan Racing Team [BMRT] have agreed to a two-year contract extension, keeping BMRT racers, including superstar Blair Morgan, riding Ski-Doo® snowmobiles through the 2008 season. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

"We're glad that we've signed back one of the premier racing organizations in the sport through 2008," said Pierre Arsenault, Vice-president and General Manager, Snowmobiles, Watercraft, Sport boats and ATVs, BRP. "Blair and his entire team have been an integral part of our racing success since 2001, and we're looking forward to more success over the next two years."

"When I started the Duluth event in November, it marked the race where I've ridden Ski-Doo sleds in more races than any other brand," said Morgan. "They're committed to winning, they're committed to pushing technology farther than anyone else, and they're committed to my team. We're glad to be staying in the BRP family."

BRP, a privately-held company, is a world leader in the design, development, manufacturing, distribution and marketing of motorized recreational vehicles. Its portfolio of brands and products includes: Ski Doo® and Lynx™ snowmobiles, Sea Doo® watercraft and sport boats, Johnson® and Evinrude® outboard engines, direct injection technologies such as Evinrude E TEC®, Bombardier* ATV all-terrain vehicles, Rotax® engines and karts.

he knows doos are a good choice... said Morgan. "They're committed to winning, they're committed to pushing technology farther than anyone else, and they're committed to my team. We're glad to be staying in the BRP family."I think had he switched... he'd still be winning but not as often as he does now...

well when he was younger he did dominate on Cat... but i think that now that he's older switching would lead to a drop in performance. He'd probably be worn out by mid season from the beating the non-REV sleds give :-D :stirthepot:

I need to get some serious time on it first... I'm still not comfortable on the thing. It's like learning how to ride all over again. But I am curious cause all of my friends on REVs say the first 100 miles it's hard to get used to. You also don't notice how nice of a ride it is..... But once you're used to it and go back to the older style position you'll totally see the different.
