Two Argos at Mud Creek ATV Park in Jacksonville, Tx (site of the Highlifter Mud Nationals). The video is from 2/14/15, and even though the area hasn't had much rain lately, we managed to find some flooded timber as well as some great muddy trails. Once the video fully uploads, will plug in the links.

Wow aren't you the lucky man with two Argo Frontiers, a girl friend who likes AATV's as much as you do, and two of the best ATV parks in the world within a stones throw of your home.. That custom built Generec powered machine sounds nice, I assume that it has all the power you would ever need in a 6x6 Frontier. How about giving us a little review of that custom built machine, let other forum members know what you have and how you like it!

The Argo I was driving is a custom built machine. It started as a plain jane Argo 580, with added bearing cages, skid plate, and the stock engine was replaced with a Generac 30hp engine with a cold air kit added for good measure. The transmission is a 3.3 geared so its got plenty of grunt.
This machine is a real beast with power and gears to back it up. I can turn the tracks as well as the entire machine just like it had the Admiral transmission. The power never runs out and its my belief this is the best engine in an amphibious atv that I've driven to date.
The Generac engines come stock with an oversized air intake fan, this machine has never overheated even with the hood on and driven in warm weather here in Texas. I have never had to run the machine above 2/3rds throttle as it has power to spare.
The Adair tracks will pull this machine over just about anything. One thing I like about Argos is that there is plenty of ground clearance even with stock machines.
The Generac engine is very similar in size to the 23hp B&S in my other machine. Its a totally different machine however with loads of power on tap, and of course the fact that Argo really builds a good machine.
