This is insane   :-o
Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to slide in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "Holy $hit, what a ride!"

Is this whole festival powered by Aquavit?

Much better than sled dog racing!

Absolutely insane! Amazing variety of super vehicles, many of which would never be off pavement in the US. A jet powered Lambo??? Talk about money to burn! Beautiful photos, well done.
Nostalgia isn't what it used to be.

All I can think about is the Jet Sled needs a big "ACME" painted on the side.
Records or parts, I didn't come all this way not to break something.
