What is Ice Racing?
The International Ice Racing Association (IIRA) has a long history of conducting car racing events on plowed courses on frozen lakes. Studded racing tires are used in the fastest classes to provide the cars with a surprising amount of grip on the ice.
Currently, all the events are based in Minnesota.
