Shredding on Frozen Lakes- Midwestern Ice Racing

Special thanks to Advance Auto Parts for sponsoring this video! They have provided a 25% discount good for 2 weeks: GEARS2020

Living in Wisconsin has its pros and cons. Con: you can only go to the race track 6 months out of the year. Pro: When winter hits, just dig a racetrack out on a frozen lake.

Andy Smedegard of ASM Services took us out on a frozen Wisconsin lake in his 350Z to show us how they do it in the MidWest.

Whole video about how fun ice racing is

Me: *cries in Texan*

[C_stephen]

Looks like I have another thing to do on my bucket list 😁

[WiscoFF]

I've lived in Wisconsin my entire life and had no idea this was so doable. I thought it was only for professionals. Learn something new everyday.

[nathanify]

Just when you thought you could not race on anything else.
Can’t wait for the second part of that K Swap! Love your guys’ videos!

[LuminantDubstep]

As someone who lives near Wisconsin, I wish I knew about this a few weeks or months ago. Something to look forward to next year!

This channel is so professional, I am so glad I found this diamond

[basithph]

Apart from sledding and skiing, I just found a new sport to play in the winter ❄️

[Talynen]

Love that you're building awareness for this type of sport! I learned slide control on gravel service roads at night so I wouldn't hurt anyone else, but having a lake to slide around on in daylight would be a much safer alternative. Keep it up Mr. Smedegard!

[Atem_S.]

snow/ice riding is so much fun and so cheap!!

[aldisdzerve]

Thats how i started driving. I was racing on ice way before i got my license

[oldcarproblems]

Stumbled upon your channel a few days and binged watched both long-trip videos. What a great channel!

[ysrcflyer]

Love this! 35 years ago I used to set up and run the same ice racing at the Antlers (Tiki Bar for you younger ones!). I ran a RX7 with "nailies" on wore out Comp TA's from autocrossing. By far the best driving experience-Andy, I echo your comments. We used to go down to West Salem and run a course on the lake down there with the LaCrosse club also. Going into a 180 deg. turn at 105 mph was a BLAST!! I ride by your shop every day in the summer, will have to stop in some time and see your operation.

As someone who lives in Minnesota I can confirm there is nothing more fun than this, especially when you’ve got a plow truck to make your own course.

[MaipuruSyrup]

Man I'm going to check for some ice events near me! Oh right I live in Australia. . We only have ice in our freezers.

[kkkk-wgje]

Wisco proud right here. Ive gone as a spectator and its way cool

[Michael-jqpf]

Now this right here, THIS is my kind of sport. I love love love snowstorms because I get to drive in them.. but I live in Seattle and it hardly ever snows here..

Type of thing that makes me wonder if I should have been raised somewhere like the midwest with bolder seasons and not s*** to do other than motorsports stuff and outdoors

[konstakarjalainen]

Ice racing is so much fun i have not done it in car but with a motorcycle and it was amazing

[looolcom]

Awesome video guy, I was never aware of these despite that I am a frequent road course guy 👍🏼👍🏼

[wbrian]

Why am I just now learning about this!? And I live in Wisconsin!

[AllTheBoost]

Was really really really hopping for another k swap video. Gunna go rewatch ep1, way to tease me.
