Drivers, Collectors and Legendary Sleds to Make Laps on Derby Track as Fundraiser; Sponsored by Country Cat The World Championship Derby Complex (WCDC) is excited to announce the first-ever “Legend Laps” snowmobile show and exhibition in Eagle River, Wis., on Thursday February 17, 2022. Sponsored by Country Cat, this live event is for collectors, drivers, and racers of oval race sleds to make laps on the legendary Derby oval track in a safe, non-competition format. The event is a fundraiser for the Snow-mobile Hall of Fame (SHOF) in St. Germain and the International Snowmobile Hall of Fame (ISHOF) in Eagle River. For race fans, Legends Laps will showcase many famous drivers along with their iconic original, reproduction and/or collectable race sleds on the famed half-mile World Championship track. Participating drivers and sled owners will relive the famed ice oval, sleds and glory representing every storied era of snowmobile oval racing—from the leaf-spring beginning to special built factory IFS Sno Pro, to Twin Trackers, Formula III and more. Drivers, collectors, and racers can participate in this event, which will be limited to 40 sleds. “Many of these drivers and sleds have not seen the ice for over 30 years,” said Craig Marchbank, Vice President & Race Director at WCDC. This is a great opportunity for drivers, collectors, and fans to be part of an historic event, and to experience the track again, or for their first time. Plus it’s a fundraiser for both snowmobile halls of fame.” Greg Marier of the SHOF board said, “Former World Champions and owners of history-making sleds are excited and committed to attend. We have verbal confirmations from Hall of Fame racers like Brad Hulings, Doug Hayes and Bobby Donahue. Plus other hall-of-famers have indicated they’re likely to join. Sponsored by Country Cat, the Derby facility will be open for food, drinks, and the chance to meet some of the famous drivers that will be part of this special race-themed exhibition. Hot seats will be available.” Legends Laps will kick-off a big weekend of snowmobile events cumulating with the SHOF Annual Ride with the Champ’s and induction ceremony in St. Germain, Wis., on Saturday, February 19.
