It all depends on how big the track is. The track at Eagle river is 1/2 mile.

4 races on Sunday, took first place in all four!! this has only been done one time before in the 44 year history of eagle river championships.

I sponser this rider, Nick Van Strydonk from Tomahawk Wi.
My daughter used to race with him for 6 years when we did Kitty Cat racing.

He won the following classes:
Pro Sprint 500: 1. Nick Van Strydonk
Pro Sprint 600: 1. Nick Van Strydonk
Semi-Pro Sprint 500: 1. Nick VanStrydonk
Semi-Pro Sprint 600: 1. Nick Van Strydonk

It was -16 below when we got to the trailer Saturday AM, THAT MAKES FOR A LONG DAY ON THE ICE.

Friend at the tavern also 1 first place in Snocross up there. I think it's snowcross in Eagle River. He had the checkered flag and a 3ft trophy green and an Eagle(Pigeon!) on top. He's 42 yrs old and hurting. Races the minor division.

Just seen him last night. He races Masters 35 SnoCross at Eagle River and won 1st Sunday. He knew the Nick guy with the black sled.

The Chain is as safe as the guy riding the sled.

Kevin and Matt were out last night. I'm sure we'll get the report today. I'd like to go out Saturday afternoon. Try to get up river.

We'll call you!
