When I was a kid..late 70s early 80s around here (finger lakes region NY) there were local competitions where people would see how far they could get their snowmobile across a pond or swamp/bog…my friends dad took us to a bunch of these events. This reminds me of that sorta thing. I guess we all like different things….do people still race snowmobiles across ponds?

Yeah, I remember that stuff, my old Peugeot 504 rests on the bottom of Lake George (NY) a victim of bad ice during an ice race back in 1976. There was a annual race but the ice was a little too thin that year. She didn't go in with gusto, rather it broke through front-first and we couldn't figure how to pull it out. The old silver 504 was gone the next morning (a good fish reef?).
