Not greg b Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Should be a close race between bunke (Polaris) and Troy Dewald (cat). They seem to be the only ones that have it figured out in recent years. My dad is the official snow plow supplier for the race so I may go and ride in a plow truck lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not greg b Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 The city put in for a 3 million dollar grant to fix up the property and have more races there. They tried to sell it a few years back to a delvoper and the tribe was going to build a new track. The deal fell through when they found out it’s a polluted waste land from fort Brady blowing shit up there back in the world war days.

Watch the first 30 or so laps. You will figure out who the ones that are in it to win it. The last 75ish laps is when they start racing hard, the track is shit, and there are maybe 5 sleds left on the lead lap. Hopefully flo has cameras set up so you can actually see it. Lssu would set a go pro on a tri pod and you really could not see anything they were doing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should have plenty of ice, unlike last years mud race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crnr2Crnr Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Just watched the MIRA race on Flo from Gaylord. Those boys ride hard and fast. Herf and Bunke are going to have their hands full with team Caderette, Tommie Bauer and Yovich. Also of interest to Cat guys is Benjamin Langaas (Cat engineer) whose been quite competitive at Eagle River and racing Enduro with MIRA. To anyone thinking Enduro racing is similar to regular oval racing, you couldn't be more wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not greg b Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Only 1 skidoo and 1 Yamaha entered this year. Just talked to some friends and they have a rv spot on the hill facing the track 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnstang Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 I didn't know there was a more insignificant race than iron dog. I don't know what this race is but I see it referenced here quite a bit by the same 4 people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
