Finishes in Garrison, MN
Garrison, MN
February 27, 2011
The ORA Ice Oval Venue in Garrison, Minnesota was held February 26th & 27th. Trevor Fontaine placed 1st in Semi-Pro Champ and 2nd in Pro Champ 440. Trevor was "hot on the heels" of four time world champion P.J. Wanderscheid. Trevor said that "I hope to keep the heat on P.J. at our next race in Beausejour, Manitoba.".
The Hoglund boys, Max & Morgan were undefeated in six classes. Max won both the Pro Sprint 600 & Semi-Pro Sprint 600 classes. Morgan won his four classes in Sprint & Stock 380.
One of the more notable races for Hoglund Racing occurred at the end of the race day on Sunday. The Garrison Commercial Club sponsored a "dash for cash" race allowing any qualified driver to participate in a 25 lap non-stop race. The only rule, you cannot race a Champ class snowmobile. 1st place is $500 cash. Morgan Hoglund "stepped up to plate" and raced his brothers Pro Sprint, which he had never driven. Morgan got the "hole shot" on P.J. and the resto of the pack and led every lap with no red or caution flag to finish 1st. Even more astounding are Morgan's consistant lap times.

Max Hoglund raced his Pro
Sprint 600cc Arctic Cat to 1st
Place in the Pro Sprint & Semi Pro
Sprint class. This race sled is new to

season. Max said, “...the Arctic Cat
handled very good and that I did not have to
make any changes to the suspension.”.

Stock class aboard his 2011 Arctic Cat

Benoy believe that the 2011 F-6 chasis
combined with the air adjustable shocks
will make the F-6 a very efficient handling
sled on the track.
