The thing that's always held me back from trying ice racing has been how MX seems to be a ton of waiting for your time on the track.

Sitting around in the middle of a frozen lake makes that seem even less appealing.

Looks like fun though. I hear the traction and lean angles are insane.

I was thinking about getting an appropriately retarded team together for a Numb Bum 24 effort. I'd probably end up getting chased down and run over by the snow clearing tractors, but it'd be a fun five minutes while it lasted. Maybe next year.

Yup, I have done a ton of it. We have a charity 24 hour ice race up here, and we won the open class a few times. I had frost bite so bad one year, that kids would literally ask "Mommy! What happened to that mans face??!!" It was bad. Scabs, puss, black rotting skin. And, to think I came in cause my KNEES were cold. Middle of the night, -25 C, and doinv 100 mph down the long straights, makes for one COLD dude. We had a Yamaha XT 600 modded up, lowered, etc. Man, it was fun though. 60 mph, drifting around the corners. Lots and lots of dead two strokes at those.

Don't race on the ice but i do play around on it from time to time. So much fun whats everyone running for tires? I gotta MF 44 studded front and need to buy a new back

Raced my first season in the Alberta Endurance Ice Racing Assoc. this winter.
raced 3 of the 6hr races, when the ice is clean i don't know if there is no feeling greater.

Terryk: you race ice on an oval or is it road course style?
