Snow Drags a go!

Jeff Green | Feb 09, 2012

With 14 inches of ice and cold nights ahead, the Sharbot Lake Snow Drags are a go.

Organizers are expecting that upwards of 250 riders will compete at the 2nd annual rejuvenated Sno-Drags on Saturday, February 11. Crews have been working hard all week transferring snow from the middle of Sharbot Lake over to the drag strip, putting up fencing and grooming the track as race day approaches.

Anyone who wants to participate should arrive early on race day. All machines will first receive their tech inspection and then they will be registered. Registration ends at 9:30 and racing starts at 10 a.m. All races will be with stock machines with the exception of the Open Class, and the entry fee is $25. The Kittycat and 120 cc classes are free, and kids races will start at around 11 a.m. All classes will have double elimination (time permitting).

The Sharbot Lake Lions Club will be selling refreshments on the beach throughout the day.

The races are scheduled to end by 5 p.m. when the festivities will continue with awards at the Sharbot Lake Country Inn. Door prize draws will take place at that time and some top-notch prizes will be given out, including helmets valued at $200, $50 gas cards, etc. For further information, call 613-279-1933
