Ice Season!

[Matt D.]

Awesome! Who ran this event and whatnot? How did you get signed up for it? There are events around the Twin Cities, but I don't know about them until after they're done, much like this one.

Lacrosse is a bit of a haul. Does look like fun, though. Would love to see some in-car video.

lulz. Does make me want to get an Impreza as a winter beater next year. I thought about doing it this year but this provides another reason.

This Saturday and Sunday in West Salem, WI. It should say in the forums or on that website somewhere the exact location. 35 bucks for 8 runs.

That is something I've always had in mind for the Scummit. It should clean up out there :)

you need a rollbar to run this, right? Is he in the non-studded tire class?

Wait, you need a roll bar? it doesn't look like anyone in the pictures has a roll bar in their car.

Hey 1quick4, I am really glad you took pictures of the car on the snow bank before I drove it off!

It depends on what class you race in... the most realistic for a daily driver type car is Rubber to Ice. 123abc, which class were you in?

E. Rubber to Ice Class
This class is to promote an entry level to ice racing that doesn’t require as large a financial commitment as the
other classes. Only the following modifications are allowed. Modifications beyond these rules are not allowed:
1. Cars must be two wheel drive.
2. A four point roll bar is required. It must have one diagonal in the main hoop plane and two rear stays.
Additional bars may be added. Full roll cages are allowed. All roll cages and bars must
be constructed to the design and sizing found in IX.D.1 except all trim components must be retained. Trim
components may be modified but only to the extent necessary to allow installation of the roll
structure.
3. The driver’s seat may be replaced with a racing style seat but must be securely attached and designed for
automotive use.
4. IIRA cars prepared to Stock or Modified may compete in this class as long as the car fully meets all
requirements for the Stock or Modified class (except tire rules).
Page 17 of 23 2010 IIRA Rules and Regulations
5. Wheels are unrestricted in size but the tire/wheel assembly must be covered by the fender when viewed
from above and must not interfere with anything throughout the full range of motion of
suspension and steering.
6. Any unmodified DOT rated tire may be used.

If you race in any other category (wheel to wheel), you're supposed to have a roll cage, and people run studded tires.

Basically guys there are 6 classes. Awd, fwd, and rwd, and then for each you got studded and non studded. No rollbar required. Just make sure your car is mechanically good and let it rip.


They have helmets you can use as well. So really, the only excuse is not wanting to drive down here.
