Yeah, can we get a better grid?

No, Sorrells for me (still have not seen any), but I did order some new boots.  

Do we have a huge testing schedule set up yet? 8)

Well, since this is a once a year deal we have no points or heat races to grid by so yeah, register early for a better grid. Not that it will do anyone any good though.  3 hrs can change a pole position to a last place result pretty easily.

I think Sorrel was bought out by someone else recently.  I bought a cheap pair of boots (Sno Racers no less  ;D) at Farm and Barn that work great.
Expensive boots are not the way to go because the foot pegs on dirt bikes have a tendency to tear up winter boots.

Testing schedule ...check www.dieseljo.com for ice riding locations and possible dates/times.

LOL..!!!  

No - no testing times yet, but I did see my first ice fisherman today.

I'm working on it.  I'll let you know as soon as I can.
