The circuit represents one of the longest tracks on the 2006-2007 Tour and will cover the infield, as well most of the existing ice oval racing surface.

"The race venue at Eagle River offered us many advantages in both geography and distance we don't usually have," said Executive Vice President of Operations Kent Lungstrom. "So, we started with a blank piece of paper, and with the help of track consultant Joe Duncan, Eagle River officials, and the WPSA technical staff, we have created what we think will be one of our most exciting and competitive tracks on record. The track will truly test our Professional competitors, while offering alternative lines for our Junior and Amateur racers. This should be a very exciting racing weekend."

"We're pleased to welcome the PowerSports Snowmobile Tour for its inaugural Snocross race at Eagle River," said Todd Achtenberg, general manager of the AMSOIL Eagle River Derby Track. "The layout will make for close, exciting racing for both the fans and competitors. Along with racing, we're planning to have other entertainment opportunities on site for fans of all ages. This will truly be an thrilling race weekend."

The first race on the 2006-2007 WPSA PowerSports Snowmobile Tour season is scheduled for Nov. 24-26, 2006 with the AMSOIL Duluth National at Spirit Mountain in Duluth, Minn. Advance tickets are available at www.visitduluth.com or by calling 218-722-4011.
