DLB MOTORSPORTS MID-SEASON CHAMPIONSHIP

LAKE NESHONOC - West Salem, WI 

2010 Race Date - Jan 31 - Sunday - Race Results

Promoter:  This event is promoted by Ken Marcou (715) 284-4093, Ryan Powel (608) 498-1928 and the Central Wisconsin Ice Racing Association.  

History:  Several years ago faced with the prospect of raising entry fees to cover costs of the yearly CWIRA Series it was decided that one event each year would be sponsored and promoted by the Association.  This is the race that pays a large portion of the cost involved with the CWIRA Points Series and the yearly awards.  Track and other event workers are the members of the Association helping to bring Ice Racing to the success it has enjoyed over the years.  It traditionally has been held at Tomah but because of the lake there having been drained by the DNR (as part of their fish management program) it has been moved to Lake Neshonoc for 2010.  This race has become one of the most popular of the year for spectators, and as the DLB Motorsports Mid-Season Championship - the most challenging for racers as well!  The on-site race responsibilities and track lay-out are handled by Ken Marcou of the CWIRA - also known as the "Quadfather" for his many years (and many Quad Racing Championships) of racing success.  If you are interested in helping at this event - volunteers are always needed - you can earn "worker points"!  Click here for more information.
