We had a blast, and thse pictures prove it.
See you next year!
Below is a video of the many antique snowmobiles that were in attendance:
Below is a video of a 1946 Eliason tooling around Dollar Lake. At the original 1964 race, a similar Eliason won the "speed run" with it's Indian motorcycle engine and multiple speed transmission.
Below is a 1950's Bosak, Super M snow machine. These were made for many years in Mainitoba, Canada
Having fun. Here is Vice President Jerry Wanty who perenially is the official flag-man, starter and calculates the award winners, based on a formula of antique machine weight and horsepower.
