Todays Valentine Vintage X-Country Race was a huge success! The course was excellent! Course was approx 3 miles long and all classes ran 4 laps. Some sleds didn't fair so well...a broke chain, lost gas tank...?, lean running engines, broken spark plug caps and fouled plugs!
Robby Schachle ran the fastest lap, it came in the Open Class. 5:20:48
The 341-500cc class was a bumping, side by side battle to the finish...under 1 second difference! Chris Schachle and Mike Hardy ran an great race! This class is becoming a must see! Congradulations Mike!
