Lake Region Ice Racers Prepare For The 2012 Racing Season
Moultonboro, NH – The club’s 2012 plans are in place, the plow trucks are fueled, the race cars are tuned, the chains are prepared, the drivers and crews are eager to race, and the dedicated fans are ready. So what’s the hold up?? Just the thickness of the ice on Berry and Lee Ponds off Rt 25 in Moultonboro. As soon as we have safe ice, the racing begins. Historically, the ice racing season starts in mid-January and runs into the beginning of March.
The Lakes Region Ice Racing Club brings 5 classes of cars to either Berry or Lee pond each week: Juniors (13-15), 4 cylinder rear-wheel drive, 4 cylinder front-wheel drive, V8 stock, and modified. From the fearless juniors to the wicked fast modifieds, there is lots of close competition and action on the 1/3 mile oval track.
