2013 AMSOIL Duluth National Kicks Off Today at Spirit Mountain

Tim Tremblay will be one of the hot riders to watch this year.

After the turkey has been trimmed and the leftovers put away, thousands of people will descend on Spirit Mountain in Duluth, Minn. Friday for the start of the 2013 AMSOIL Championship Snocross (ACS) series tour. Sanctioned by the International Series of Champions (ISOC), the ACS kicks off its season each year with the AMSOIL Duluth National event, featuring the world’s premier racers looking for a strong start to the season. Team AMSOIL riders Robbie Malinoski, Tim Tremblay and Ross Martin will be aiming for a podium finish, while Martin also seeks a three-peat victory in the AMSOIL Dominator race that he’s swept since its inception two years ago.

With so much talent in one place, the event promises exciting racing action for the whole family. And if some members of the family aren't really into high-flying snowmobile action, the ski slopes are open. There's plenty of snow for both snowboarding and downhill skiing. And when they get to the bottom they can check out the newly built Grand Chalet at the bottom.

Whether you're in the area or have to make the trek from elsewhere, it's a great place to spend a weekend. And conditions are perfect this year. Be sure to come out and see for yourself why the AMSOIL Duluth National has become a Thanksgiving tradition for racers and fans alike. For those who can’t make it, look for coverage and updates on the AMSOIL Racing website.
