Season opener at High Voltage MX on tap for Rock Maple Racing
Regional cross-country tour gears up for 6th season

HAMPSTEAD, New Hampshire (Jan. 22, 2021) — Officials at Rock Maple Racing (RMR) are excited to kick off their sixth season of cross-country snowmobile racing on Saturday, Jan. 30, at the popular High Voltage MX facility in Greig, New York.

This venue offers great terrain and ample room for a challenging course layout. Grieg is located in upstate New York’s snowbelt. Series officials regret the late start to this abbreviated season yet have been working behind the scenes in an attempt to provide teams a chance to compete in a safe manner.

“State-enforced restrictions put in place by this awful pandemic have been a challenge for our host sites,” RMR owner and president Tara Saxton said. “It was sad to see our races in Rangeley (Snodeo) and Sherman (Gould Farms) get canceled, but we understand. I’m just grateful that some places will allow us to race.”

On Saturday, Feb. 13, RMR teams will return to the friendly confines of the Young Farms in West Glover, Vermont. Last winter, the series visited this excellent venue with a spectacular view on two occasions. With a lack of snow in most of the region, Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom came through.
