winter racing event gets underway at 7PM. Most of the races will take place on the specially prepared solid ice oval track but there is also racing planned on a TT course with a jump to make things even more interesting and challenging for the riders.
If wild and crazy guys rocketing around the arena’s solid ice track at insane speeds weren’t enough the promoters went over the top and booked SICK AIR FMX SUPERSTAR SCOTT MURRAY to perform off the chart FREESTYLE STUNTS! MURRAY will perform a wide array of acrobatic freestyle daredevil stunts such as KISS OF DEATH, SWITCH BLADES & CLIFFHANGERS to name some. But the big “frozen banana†will come when he attempts the FIRST EVER BACK FLIP ON ICE!!! This spectacular and dangerous stunt will be performed 30’ above the solid sheet of ice! SCOTT MURRAY’S SICK AIR SHOW will no doubt leave all fans in attendance breathless!
WORLD CHAMPIONS JAKE “THE SNAKE†MATAYA in the World Cup Motorcycle Division and 3-time World Champ DUSTY “KANSAS TIME BOMB†CROUCH on an Outlaw Quad will head up the Pro Racer fields of competition. Strong fields of riders in Evansville are expected to give the World Champions their biggest challenge of this season. All pro machines are equipped with razor sharp steel studded tires allowing the best racers to go 0-60MPH IN LESS THAN 3 SECONDS! When you watch the ICE lightning quick 2-wheel rocket ships and the no holds barred anything goes bump and grind ICE Outlaw Quads (the race cars you sit on – not in!) at full speed you will understand why they call WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP ICE RACING THE GREATEST SPECTACLE ON ICE!TM
