The wind on friday looks great! 18 gusting to 25. And it looks like some wind for sat as well! Def going to get a race on!

Looks like the best time might be early on Sat to race, so make sure if your coming up on Sat you get up here by 9:30 for the racers meeting.


I'll be around on friday. I might have to work part of a day but I should be there from lunch time on.

I'll check on the ice roads tomorrow to see where the best spot to set up the kickers will be.

Look forward to seeing you all out there.

I'll give everyone to thursday at 5:00pm to let me know if you want to pre-register for $15 (pay me friday night or sat morning)! After that if you don't email me or post on here... the price is going up to $25.

I updated the map for where the racer's meeting is tomorrow. The wind right up near the resort is a little gusty and the roads aren't as good. So there is a little access to the south that has a much better road and better wind. Mike B set up a red warming shelter and Todd H plowed an area to park. We will see you guys out there tomorrow at 9:30 for the racers meeting!
