The report this morning is new snow and white-out conditions await the leaders. The trail has not been broken.

The weather didn't hurt the lead team too much. They still have a near 10 minute advantage and a night to think about it. Tomorrow morning will see the top teams in a 250 mile drag race to Fairbanks.

Polaris wins by 3min.18sec., lead the entire 1971 miles and averaged about 53mph. Pretty good for breaking trail. Did the last 52 miles in 46min. Nitro's still on trail.

I too would like to see a summary.
Aparently 23 were have A arm problems near the end.

I to would enjoy reading about how his race went. I'm betting all he wants to do for the next few days is relax. You figure at the end of the race, he still has a 5-6 hour drive from Fairbanks to home.
I wonder what kind of a-arm problems they had? I'm guessing they would have been caused by some kind of impact.
I was checking out photos of the winner's Dragons and they were equipped with rear of the tunnel mounted, custom, aluminum gas tanks. They appeared to hold around 5 gals of gas so you add that to the stock 12 gal tank and they were packing 17 gals of fuel!

Tried to get some Nytro photos but by the time I got downtown most had been put on trailers and my camera was frozen up.
Did manage a couple.
Not sure what others thought but I can tell you from a spectators point of view the double finish line thing was lame. Having the timed finish at Pikes then being escorted down the Noyes slough to downtown seemed a little silly.
For me the best part at the Pikes was being able to see all the sleds line up afther they arrived. Spectators could look at all the sleds and see the amazing setups and battle scars from the race.
Curious what you and the other racers thought about the double finish line Mark? :f
