Sno*Drift is the first stop on the 2006 Rally America National Championship. It's a full-on snow and ice event through the back roads of northeastern lower Michigan.
LOCATION | Atlanta, MI
The Sno*Drift Rally - held in the middle of winter in northastern lower Michigan - takes place where snowmobiles and Elk probably outnumber cars. As in past years, it is headquartered in Atlanta, Michigan but also passes through the towns of Lewiston and Hillman.
CONDITIONS |
Winter conditions in Michigan are hard to predict, but some combination of fresh snow and glazed ice can always be expected. Current rules restrict rally cars from using studded ice tires which makes finding traction extremely difficult for the drivers. If there has been good snowfall in the days leading up to the rally expect to see large snowbanks lining the roads. These snowbanks can be a help and a hazard for drivers as they try to stay on the road. Dress warm and bring your snowmobile!
