Fort Kent’s Joe Pelletier in 600 class which he placed second. “It was alright for our first time out this year,” said Pelletier. ” I got a 1st in both IFS 440 and IFS Outlaw, 3rd in Trail 600 and crashed out of Trail Open. It was my first ride on a new sled, so I was trying to get the setup right. I wasn’t as competitive as I wanted”. Pelletier plans to be at the SnowBowl Snowcross races as does fellow Fort Kent racer Toby Caron third from right. Caron finished on the podium in 3 out of 4 races entered.  (Elizabeth Agnew Hartford photo)
