Speaking of ICE racing!

Have not been for probably eight or nine years but since it is back here again, I'll be there.

You guys are crazier than I thought. Racing in a rink? Ouch man! We do it a little different up this way.

Hmmm, they got a mad dog class in that stuff???? Looks like I could leave my steel shoe at home. Sure have to remember every stitch of winter clothing I have, though.

Now, I've watched this stuff on TV and they had the things leaned WAY over and put their leg/knee down almost road race style cause they were way too far over for a foot down flat track style. Had a fellow tell me how they make up the tires, worn out tire inside the tire with the sheet metal screws in it. He says it's a bitch to mount them and the wheel weights a TON once mounted. Sounded like a lot of unsprung weight there, but then, I guess the ice is pretty smooth.
