It all started in 1993 as a certified technician at a multi-line dealer and improving skidoo snowmachines, starting with a 1992 Mach 1X winning many a race with the mighty 670. After many years on the ice I got the mountain bug and the rest is history. A run of turbo / big bore 670's were first until the new series 3 Ski doo engine came out and a new era of mods were born. Starting with 2 ring pistons for the 700 and mountain specific clutching / heads / porting I left the dealer and started Sled Head Racing.

​

The 800 twin has been quite the motor for me. From stock upgrades to the original 150hp 800 and spending the most time on the 800R culminating in the awesome 190+ hp 880s… A new ERA was born in 2017 with the new 850 Rotax motor and Gen 4 Chassis! SHR applied its tried and true clutching to develop P-Drive kits! The Gen5 Chassis really puts the power to the snow stock or modified. SHR has been a leader of reliable clutching since day one and will be well into the future…
