Was trying to find some stuff on an old computer and came across these. If there's any interest I can post more. From Eagle River around 2001/2002 or so

Those are great. In the pic with the black dot, is it safe to say those are all running in the 340 class? Just a disclaimer, I'm not well versed in the racing scene. I'm more of a putt-putt kinda guy, LOL

Hard to say by the pics. Either 292 or 340 I'd guess.

Think they were shot in 2005. I remember it was very, very cold. Went thru a lot of hand warmer packs.

I always wondered in the spacers between the ski springs and leg helped very much. Someone had a good time at the milling machine making these up.

Really like that 1990s to late 2000s vintage racing. Sleds were actually the "real" sleds. I so much "new" vintage race sleds it's crazy. There's a guy that has a Chap IFS 440 that the only thing that is from the day is the engine (kind of sort of). On the other hand. I'm OK with it because the real race sleds need to be on display at shows and museums. Saw I ThunderJet at Albright Shores in Michigan back in 2007 cleated track derail and just ruined the tunnel. Cool Pixs! Thanks!

Guys, those pictures are from when my wife, my mother-in-law, and i were racing. Such a great time! The #27 Blizzards were Lloyd Riggs sleds. He grew up in lower Michigan and raced in the early and mid 70's on Rupps with his brother. Moved out to California, and used to fly back here just to race Eagle River. There are also pictures of friends who are no longer with us anymore. Rick Klein 66x from Friendship, 137 Dave Gruenwald. Some are still around, like Dale Ledger from the UP. He race there two yars ago at 88 years old. Lot's of the Trezy clan sleds. Fantastic times!
You might find a 73 #111 and a single cylinder #111 and #112...

Here you go. I have more ER pics, including some 76-79 RVs and Blizzards if anyone wants to see them. Not trying to take over the board.

Awesome! that 71 tnt looks like the same kind of skid I put under my 70 oly, though maybe my track is a little longer (121")?
