Grass Drags - Snowmobile racing is an obsession with no cure, and snow is merely an option.
See the Events scheduled for Fall 2005 here
Not even the end of a season can stop these competitors, which would explain why snowmobile grass drags have become so popular. In a four way, head to head battle, racers displace 500 feet of turf and grass in mere seconds. Its a drag race of earth pounding proportions, where power, preparation and cat like reflexes spell the difference between making dust or eating it.

Matty D has earned a reputation for tearing up tracks from the East Coast to the Midwest, and in the process, garnered plenty of hardware, cash and respect. A go fast junkie, Matt has been shredding grass, snow and ice for seven years as a Pro and in recent years the culmination of his teams efforts have really paid off. In 99 he earned the dubious honor of Bash Master at the Ohio Snowbash and was the High Point Champion at Haydays, etching his name on the most coveted piece of hardware in grass drag racing, the Minnesota Cup.
