Grass Drags and Water Crossing

This weekend the Want Ad attended the New Hampshire Snowmobile Association Grass Drags and Water Crossing. The event was held in Fremont, NH and featured a variety of events and vendors.
The main event, the snowmobile drag racing, consists of modified snowmobiles racing across a field (nope, no snow, just grass) and some reaching speeds well over 100 mph in a 1/8 mile track. If you think snowmobiles racing across grass seems out of place, another event was a snowmobile race around a pond (nope, no ice, just water). Snowmobiles are able to glide across water as long as they are constantly moving or else they sink like a stone and that happened plenty of times. The event also featured ATV racing and both dirt bikes and snowmobiles jumping off ramps as tall as a house. Take a look at a few of the video clips the Want Ad took at the event:



The Want Ad had a booth set up in a great location and we were able to meet a lot of great customers and snowmobile enthusiasts that were thrilled to recieve a free copy of the Want Ad and the new Powered. This was a great event that could make any warm weather lover left craving a blizzard.

Happy buying and selling,

Grass Drags, and a silly little misunderstanding

We’re heading up to New Hampshire on October 5-7 for the Grass Drags event. “Great!” I thought, “But is this event appropriate for us?” To me, “grass drags” sounds suspiciously like an event where men show up in Hawaiian hula skirts.

Turns out I was wrong. Way wrong. This event is perfectly appropriate for us and our readers; it’s all about racing snowmobiles without snow. There's water cross racing, tricks and other stuff too.

How cool is that? Even cooler is that this event is the largest of its kind, with 3 days of non-stop ATV and snowmobile action. So make your way up to Fremont, New Hampshire that weekend and check it out. Stop by and say hello to Eric while you’re there. Oh, and guys, leave the grass skirt at home.
