The Snowmobile 1/8 and 1/4 mile asphalt drag racers are a well- organized and professional group, and should be welcomed by everyone here....PLUS, their money is nice and green! Not their fault that our governing bodies can't set up a fair race order/event format and schedule for EVERYONE'S daily racing.....Again, just my take on this.....from "an old sled dog".....Best wishes Terry.....

Sorry....I have to disagree. If the sleds have thier own vinue then why dont they just stay there and leave the summer months and track time (what little is avaliable these days) to the stock and S/S cars. With all of the different circus acts coming out of the wood work the legal class cars are being squeezed out of the picture all together. Kind of like the illegals taking over this country and the politicians not doing anything about it. Its a cheap show (like minimum wage workers) and it costs everyone else in the long run.
