VINTAGE SNOCROSS
The 3rd annual vintage snocross race, sponsored and hosted by PowerHouse Motorsports, attracted dozens of racers who showed up with a wide variety of vintage snowmobiles to compete on.
The race was held on Skyline Ridge high above Fairview, UT, the vintage snocross racers battled the elements-a fairly big snowstorm lashed the area all day-and each other. Although the snow dust never really settled, thanks to brisk winds and steady snowfall, which helped the racers.
In The Snowball Express class, there were teams of two racers, both sharing and riding the same vintage sled. After each lap, the driver/rider had to switch places at the start/finish line.
