Wiseco has just recently released its 2009 Snowmobile catalog filled with new models and information to get you ready for the season. If you didn't receive this at the Hay Days races in Lino Lakes, Minnesota, we'll fill you in on some new models for the coming season. All Wiseco piston kits (SK Kits) come complete with pistons, rings, pins, circlips, and top end gasket kit.

New in our Arctic Cat selections, we now have a piston kit to fit the F8, M8, and Crossfire 8 models. This twin cylinder, liquid cooled model features pistons that are skirt coated for reduced friction and quiet operation.

Made on a dedicated forging, Wiseco's pistons bring superior strength to weight ratio. It retails at $359.16 (SK1374).

    As a life long racer, Brian has worked for many engine builders. Following a stint in the Air force, he started at the School of Automotive Machinists in Houston Texas. He learned machining, porting, flowbench development, engine building, and endlessly dyno'd many different types of engines. From there, he worked at Scott Shafiroff Racing in New York (who specializes in Big Block Chevys) and CJ Batten of Michigan (who specialized in 4v engine design). When not at work, Brian tools around on the family hotrods and heads to the track whenever possible. His wife Laura is an avid sportbike rider. Between the two of them, they've enjoyed molding their 5 year old son Van into another gearhead that may one day work at Wiseco himself!

    Students from Brigham Young University have built a Formula 1 car under the Partners for the Advancement of Collaborative Engineering Education (PACE). A set of custom Wiseco pistons are powering the engine. The students have been working with 20 universities around the world. The car was presented at the PACE conference in Detroit in September, displayed the the GM Vehicle Performance Center. It went back to BYU for some final tweaking to prepare for testing in Korea at GM Daewoo. Once all testing is complete, the car will be the pace car at an F1 race in Macau in 2009. Keep your eyes peeled for this car!
    We are saddened to announce the death of one of our dear friends and Supercross racers from Mexico. Back in August, Wiseco powered racer, Rene Reyes Aguirre, was murdered in Juarez Cuidad, Mexico following a weekend of racing. Rene, a 24 year old from Chihuahua, Mexico, was a 5 time Supercross SX1 champion. He even made his way into US Supercross, making main events. Rene came from a family of renowned racers, including his father, a racer from the 1960's, and his late brother. Everyone at Wiseco sends our thoughts and prayers to Rene's family and friends. He was a great friend to Wiseco and he will be missed.
