I guess I can post some pics. I guess. There was alot of carnage this year. The course was very narrow, and there was an excessive amount of slush which made it very easy to get stuck.
yea....Martin and I are "back" http://s26.photobucket.com/albums/c108/Numbchux/Ice Race Jan 09/ weather wasn't bad..... slush was a bit nasty mike wray missed the track by a bit: and fell in the slush: XT6 was good to me! gotta try to get some coil springs/shocks in the back, as the air shocks didn't hold up the whole day....
I am really looking forward to see the pics that others have taken. I have a feeling that there will be alot of damage pics.
compiling a video now......took about 10 minutes of video, including a couple spinouts, bumper destruction, and Justin vs cone.
He was stuck out there for almost 45 minutes I think when he did that. I wasnt out there at the time but it sounds like there was a ton of slush and some poorly placed ice. I left last night so those arnt coming from me. Although I do recall seeing someone with only one eyebrow.
I would like to add that in this picture: That the piece I was picking up was a piece of cardboard and was not something that fell off my car. Surprisingly I sustained zero damage to my car dispite numerous collisions with snow banks and spin outs. Another interesting thing is that I was almost able to drive out of that snow bank. which is impressive because at the far right of the pic I was already on the snow bank...
:biggrin: If this thread is not twice as long in one hour, everyone is banned. I 'm bummed that I didn't go, but glad that my car is the same as it was on Friday :biggrin:. I definately would have been one of the victims of the snowbanks. MORE PICS and VIDS!!!
Here's Tonys damage: shattered window bumps on heads & rear bumper I think that all happened on Friday evening
lol @ the shattered window. Still not sure how you accomplished that, Tony. Glad the car is in good enough shape to drive home, though!
my front bumper is toast, lost the rear mudflaps, and the exhaust fell off putting it on the the trailer. working on vid and pics right now (although I didn't really take many shots)
+1 to this. I know that tons of people were taking pictures. Also it seems like the older cars ('01 and older) faired really well in terms of damage. I guess they just dont make the new cars as durable as the older ones. (GCs FTW!)

w000000000000000t had a great time! I managed to lose my 2 rear mud flaps, oh well it was way worth it!
