Cognito BITD build PerkinsDirt #1946

[COGNITO]

Kent Perkins has been racing the PerkinsDirt #1946 Polaris RZR XP900 in Best In The Desert (BITD) for a couple seasons now and has decided to go with Cognito in building a new long wheel base chassis. We purchased a 4 seat frame, wiring harness, and driveline, will build out the chassis, and swap over most of the components from Kents 2 seat car into the new 4 seat chassis.

We strip down all the unwanted plastic and steel and then start building from the ground up, also gusseting the front end of the frame to take the abuse that the Cognito 1918 car has taken all season in BITD and at the Baja 1000.

After gusseting the front of the frame, seats are mounted and then the tubing work has begun!

The long wheel base corners better and work better in the bumps?

Sounds like they already have all the parts that fit the 900 platform.

We still need a marketing guy

Boy talk about changing shirts!!! Not only would it be a Murry Motorsports to Cognito Motorsports...but it would also be Canned Ham to Polaris
