2011 Speedweekend on Ice Orsa Sweden 11-12 March

Translation from above :-


Speed Weekend  2011 moves to Orsa

Speed Weekend is a high speed race on ice, with simularities from Bonneville in USA.
Its about setting speedrecords on the classical stretch of 1000 meter – called the flying kilometer.
The track on Orsa lake is prepared over 3km, the start is next to Orsa Camping, where the racers are going to reach new speed records during this speed filled weekend.

We received  a big international interest when
Peter Westman rode 345 km/h on his motorcyclel.

The event moves to Orsa, thanks to Orsa district councils great interest and support, together with Orsa Camping Helen Arnessons wish to organise lodgings for the racers,and the visiting public.

The start field has increased during the years , and we are convinced the 2011 race shall attract a larg start field with both proffessionals and amateurs, old and young, where komraderi and pleasure are much in focus.

The public will see a unique show on ice – there have been more folk in space than what have driven 300 kmh on ice. – exhibitions and music are provided for the pleasure of the public on  Orsa lake 11-12 March 2010.

Event is run together with the help of local clubs.

Event Organiser

Hi, The date and place is set, its time for us Landracers to engage overdrive and finish our projects in time for 11-12 March 2011.
 We have a new venue this time - Orsa, with a much longer and wider Icy Lake, the actual start is situated absolutely next to a huge campsite with loads of wooden cabins to rent (but get booked up in good time as there are also a load of ski people interested in them), together with pub and bowling facilities. There is a hotel within walking distance- about 10 minutes away. Orsa is approx 3,5 hours drive North East from Stockholm, its a lovely picturesque small town, with loads of american car entusiasts.
I guarantee you guys from America will just love this event , should you choose to come and visit/race.
