Ice Racing?

[MegaMang]

Anyone heard of Legends racing on Ice?  If there was a race somewhere in the area, I'd go in a second to watch.  Not sure if I'd want to race on it this year.  Maybe after a little more bum time in the car.

I can't imagine getting anywhere fast on ice due to the power to weight ratio , maybe with studded tires...I dont know...I know a guy who ice races here and he tears his car up every time out, but maybe it'd be different.

[MegaMang]

What is it about ice racing that is so hard on his car?

Mike

Yeah, I was thinking studs myself.  Obviously it wouldn't be an Inex sanctioned event, but fun for sure!

The bouncing off the other cars all day!!

[MegaMang]

Yep!  I can see that now.  Big bad mojo there.

 If your bouncing off other cars; hopefully your stayin' on the track. Slidin' off in the snow drifts wouldn't be fun!
  Yes It Would!!!     
 I've seen snowmobiles run on the ice. They run some serious spikes on their tracks. Have only seen cars on ice, on TV. Does look like fun!

Ice is for sweet tea!

When the high temp is below 50° I don't go racing.  I HATE being cold!  I know you snowbirds think 50° is "nice," but to me, it is miserable.  I prefer temp ranges where the girls walk around in their bikini tops!


Can y'all tell I live in Dixie?

Havent seen a bikini in 4 months here in the Frozen Tundra of Wisconsin!

I dunno bout all that... It's 115+ degrees in the summer here which makes it REALLY hot at the track and in your fire suit and helmet. ughhhh.. I can always put on extra clothes to stay warm, but they frown on trying to race naked... lol

I few years ago I saw motorcycle and ATV racing on a hockey rink here in St. Louis.  Maybe legends cars with studded tires in a hockey rink.  That might be interesting. 

[VMS Motorsports]

That would be cool, can't see it happening, but it would be cool, as long as we were fully studded. I would think they would need to reinforce the walls, hockey walls are only plywood with 2x4's....dont wanna take out any spectators, ya know! Sounds like something they would do up dere in Canada, eh?

Out here on the East Coast of Canada we would go without the studs and the boards. Let the spectators fend for them selves . Just joking, actually we would run without the studs but definately need the boards inside.

Snowmobiles used to run on our track in the winter time.  I dont see why Legends couldn't studd the tires and do the same.  I think the hockey rink would be too small but to run on our track would be great.  Plus the owner of our track is always looking for ways to make more money.

Geoff,
 Your a CRAZY MAN!!!!

 Scares me; BUT I LIKE IT!!!!!!!!! 
Somehow.................. Justfreaky! 

 

RB,
 Our local track wants to promote off season stuff too.
PROBLEM:   He doesn't want to pay for it!

[MegaMang]

I think it would be great fun to go out there on ice.  I just want to borrow someone else's car to do it in....  Oh Ricky Bobby!...
