(This is the text of the mailing that was sent out Sunday Dec 28)
First off, we hope you all had a great Christmas and that 2015 finds you and your family/friends in good health and happiness. Most of all…..we hope you’re ready for racing at Fremont this weekend (Jan 3rd & 4th)!

A lot of important
information has come together in the weeks after the Fall Meeting, so we wanted
to make sure everyone was ready and had the latest updates. As always you can find this stuff in detail
on the web site at www.cwira.com.
Remember that if you want
your season points to count this year you (or one of your minions) must
complete a work day as detailed in the rule book shown after rule #47. Worker sign-up is available on the message
board which can be found via the web page.
The 2015 Rule Book is now posted at www.cwira.com.
Also this year we WILL
be enforcing the rider number rules closely.
Get your number BEFORE you show up at the track and display it
correctly or you will not race.
No “slashes” this year – and the “black on white” colors are required.
Attention 250 Bike riders: We
will be running a 250 GP class this year on a trial basis. It will run with the Pro/Am GP Bike class as
a double-drop (but scored by itself) to save time – but if the class turnout
supports it we may bust it out as a separate class. Other new classes this year include Old
Skool Studded Quad and Outlaw Pee-Wee.
The 2015 Schedule: Jan 3/4 - Fremont; Jan 11 Tilleda; Jan 18 Rock Dam; Jan 25 Lake Altoona; Feb 1 Tomah; Feb 7/8
Weyauwega; Feb 15
Dexterville; Feb 22 Hatfield.
The fun stuff: As usual the Fremont opener is
a Sat/Sun race with Saturday being a full schedule of classes but non-points. Sunday Jan 4th is race one
of the points season with all classes running for the first points of the
year. Week two takes us a new venue for
us at Tilleda. Take Hiway 29 East of
Wittenberg to get there – Tilleda just a bit off the Hiway. The usual map and other details is up on the
web site.
Jan 25th is
the Winter Fest & Games Weekend at Altoona. We are running Sunday and the NWIRC
will be there Saturday. There’s a lot
going on there that weekend – the location is just across Hiway 53 from Eau
Claire – so if you want to race both days you won’t find a better opportunity. Links to all the events that weekend are on
the web site.
Feb 1 is the CWIRA
Mid-Season Championship at Tomah and that race never fails to put on one of
the best shows of the year. And speaking
of shows, note that the following weekend we spend two days at Weyauwega. This year we do not share the track
with the sleds and have the fairgrounds oval all to ourselves. Saturday Feb 7 is Pro/Am Day
with limited classes and bigger cash payouts – but non-points. Sunday Feb 8 is full classes and
points and at this time the plan will include GP Classes.
This all takes us to the
weekend of Feb 15. This year the
AMA Amateur Ice Nationals will be in Wisconsin that weekend just South of
Madison on Lake Koskonong. The CWIRA
will be host to the Wisconsin State Ice Racing Championship on Lake
Dexter at Dexterville on Sunday.
We close out the season Feb 22 at Hatfield. It would be wise to keep the following
weekend open as we may need to re-schedule an event to that date.
That about wraps it up. If you haven’t renewed yet there is a form on
the back of this sheet – PLEASE CHECK THE RIDER NUMBER LIST ON THE WEB SITE
– the taken numbers will be shown there.
See you at Fremont!
