Sponsored by Skilom. the Lttlhaus of Sail Lake Citv. and While Pine Touring Center, this was the first race to he held at White Pine Canvon this year. Past races have been at the Park City Golf Course. Although roughly the same distance as previous tracks, many race participants felt this 4 km course was more difficult, however most agreed that it was a good change. Competitor turnout was down this weekend from the normal 50 75 racers to 32, despite an increase in the snow level since the last race, and more desirable weather conditions. It was necessary to delay the race start one hour to allow the hard surfaced track to soften, and become safer and slower for the racers. The race delay made waxing correctly for the track surface a bit tricky. Some racers stopped after their first lap to change their wax, which made their clocked times slower but made the race more enjoyable, skiing wise. |
