Went to this last Saturday. Was a lot of fun!
I took some lame cell phone pictures. I wish I knew I could have my camera there, I would have taken video!
Joe Kopp put on a heck of a show! But I've beat him before.... (not that I could even come close now) He and I raced motocross as kids a lifetime ago.
Anyhow...
Joe Kopp taking the win in the Main event.

I've always wanted to do I.C.E. Speedway. Although, I wanted to do it on a quad, although I might actually like a speedway bike. They used to do a show in Tucson every year (they are or used to be based there), only one every few years now.
Was that MX bike class pretty full, thats new since I've been to a race?
Guess I should try it soon, not getting any younger.
I've always loved something about Speedway racing (guess its the close proxemity, especially on ice, just haven't ever had the chance. My brothers, our neighbors and I used to race our BMX bikes on our basketball court when we were younger, it was a blast. We used to wet the court with water, since being in Tucson we didn't get much real ice.
Cool pics, now I'm all excited again.
Pretty cool, when I used to race the ICE we actually did it on speedway bikes. My mechanics used to love me after practice when I'd say, "To loose", which means they get the meticulous job of turning every sheet metal screw in every knob out a 1/4 turn . First I've really seen regular bikes other than screwing around on the slip. Looks fun for sure!
