Snowmobile Drag Racing on Grass & RED FOXX Video Clips. Duration : 2.43 Mins.

What a perfect day for Snowmobile drag racing?? I know it was cold out today , temps were still a plus 9 and breezy but no snow, that didn't stop this group from having a ball this afternoon, just off the Homestead road (old Trans Canada Highway) on the outskirts of Moncton. The cooler temps for this time of year, the land owner told me were perfect conditions to keep the machines cooler, he is also a snowmobile mechanic and plans on doing some work to his land for more races , setting up lights and racing will go year round then. During the races a red fox even came out to see what all the noise was as he ran across the field. Even the kids had a turn at the drag strip. Lucky I went to shoot this because my wife won the 50/50 draw with 5bucks in change out of my pocket LOL. Once I find out future dates that racing will be held I will post it on youtube and facebook! and before YOU ask no she didn't split winnings or give my investment back, you know how those deals work , a guy just can't win & the winning ticket last 3 numbers were 069:) Video aired on CTV news with Felicia Yap.

There are two 1/4 miles strips in the vicinity of Bangkok, and one, the Tepnakorn Motor Sports Complex, is a modern, purpose-built track located just off the Rama II highway about 50 kilometres out of the city on the long stretch down to Samut Songkram. Events run at the Tepnakorn Motor Sports Complex every Saturday night with practice starting in the daytime as the action winds up to a climax in the early hours of Sunday morning. Surprisingly the track is pretty easy to find, and heading down the Rama II highway it suddenly looms large on the right hand side following a dearth of the landmarks shown on Google Maps. It's a sea of floodlights, a sprawling car park, banging noise and a huge, unmissable illuminated sign angled close to the road. If only every destination in Thailand was as easy to find. It's nearly 11:00 PM by the time we arrive, and there's is a healthy crowd milling about and the car park is packed with vehicles of all shapes and sizes. The action will apparently go on until 2:00 AM. There seems to be a pretty big mix of 'drag' cars hitting the 1/4 mile strip, and in action at this point are warmed-up road-legal cars including the - ever popular here - Honda Jazz and Civic as well as the Toyota Yaris and ...
