When I was a kid, my dad got a '73 Super stinger 440 White with red seat and no backrest. I recall he got it from a "racing guy" and at that time, it was profoundly the fastest sled in our family fleet of 6 or 7 sleds.
I also recall then, and know now, that Scorpion was the first company to make the clutch a perfomrance device. They tuned the clutch to the power curve of the motor (Power Thrust).
My Point: As I recall, they were marketing against their competitors of the day- Arctic Cat, John Deere, and Ski Doo. That ol' sled had a sticker on it showing a scorpion with a drunken looking cat in one pincher, and ragged looking deer in the other pincher, and a yellow baby chick being stung by the stinger. I want to find that sticker. Anyone a collector and ever seen it?
