What a day for racing snowmobiles. When I left the house the wind was howling, but it was fairly clear. The first obstacle was being stopped for a train on Shoe Factory Rd. After that, I was heading north through Barrington when I was stopped again by the same train! Finally, as I was approaching the Golf Farm, I was suddenly in a whiteout of falling and blowing snow. I attempted to photograph the Hot Laps, but the conditions were so poor, retreated to my car for shelter. Shortly after 10:00 a.m., it was announced that the racing would begin. Halfway through the first race, the clouds disappeared and bright blue sky was visible. The rest of the day we were playing peek-a-boo with the clouds. The only constant was the howling wind. Several times, I was almost blown onto the track. However, none of this affected the racing and it was hot and heavy. We only had eleven races but they were good ones. Congratulations to all our class winners. Here are some images from today's action.
