We are ready to go for Saturday. We have ice in the range of 15 1/2″ as of yesterday so we can park on the ice! We do have a track that is shaved and there will be a $10 Per racer fee this Saturday. The weather appears it is going to be pretty cold as we roll onto the ice up until hot laps, so please remember the little ones!

The address is:

ROUTE FOR PARKING ON ICE WITH TRAILERS:

Hwy 70 East towards Spooner
Go North on County H (left)
Go East on County G (right)
Go North on County A (left)
Go East on County E (right)

Follow signs to West Point Resort and continue straight onto the Lake.
Once on the Lake you will need to go left (North) and the track will be on the North side of the lake. (Please be carful on being to close to the shoreline on your left side as there are two small points that stick out into the lake that are snow covered and have rocks under the snow)

ALTERNATE ROUTE FOR NOT PARKING ON THE LAKE:

Hwy 70 East towards Spooner
Go North on County H (left)
Go East on County G (right)
Go North on County A (left)
Go East on County E (right)
FOLLOW COUNTY RD E TO MACKENZIE LANDING
THERE IS LAKE ACCESS HERE BUT RAMP IS STEEP AND YOUR TRAILER MAY HANG UP, STAND ALONE VEHICLES MAY GET ON THE LAKE THIS WAY

Also, we potentialy have 3 families coming to try racing this weekend. Please contact Kent @ 715-225-0604 if you are able to loan out a Kitty Cat or 120 for the Amateur and/or Stock class.

For those that registered for the Turtle Lake race, you will be receiving a refund.

Please register for the Spooner race as normal.

Things look real good for Spooner. The lake has little snow and has an ice thickness of 12″-15″ and making more everyday with the temps reaching -17 last night and more to come as the week goes on in the Northland.

Parking and driving directions to follow later in the week.

For those interested in racing Saturday, I spoke with KCPRO East and they are having a race Saturday near Duluth @ Pike Lake.

Registration is on there web site www.kcproeast.com

With the ice conditions on Turtle Lake very poor we were forced to look at other venues. Isanti was our second option but that too proved to be challenging.

Due to the lack of ice and our normal location on the lake being used we would be on the north end of the lake where parking is not adequate.

For those that have registered we will transfer it to the next race. In the event that you will not be at Spooner please contact Cheri.

Please hold all registration for Spooner till Saturday (1-3) so Cheri can get the two races sorted out.

As of now we are not sure if this race will be made up at a later date, a double header, or cancelled. More information to come regarding this.

As of Tuesday afternoon we are working on a new race location. We are currently looking at Long Lake in Isanti at Captains on Long Lake.

Approval from the local Sherriff is pending as well as the Insurance due to the lake change. An EMT II or Paramedic is needed as well. I’m currently looking for one on short notice as we were not schedule for Isanti till February 21. If anyone has one in mind please call me at 715-225-0604.

Check back often for more updates as we work on changing locations.

Here is the latest on the race at Turtle Lake.

Attempting to make a track at Turtle Lake today proved to be quite challenging. Removal of the snow was a success, but so was breaking through the slush layer creating quite a problem. As it sits right now, the slushy layer is not freezing creating soft spots, rough patches and is currently not anything I would put any kid out there on to race.

We are looking into different options which include a different race location, venue swap, track flooding, a double header race (Saturday-Sunday), and possibly a cancellation.

More information to follow as we look at the above options.

Please check back daily for up to date information on the upcoming race.

As of this afternoon Upper Turtle lake had approximately 8’1/2″ of ice with 2″ of water, snow and slushy mix on top of it.

Monday (12-28) we will be working on getting the track built with four wheelers. Mother nature is on our side for making ice, but against us on getting the track built.

The plan is to use wheelers to plow the slush layer off to get down to the good ice that is there, as long as the slushy layer does not freeze to hard.

Please check back to see updates as we work hard to get this first race under way.
