The Gleason Ice Oval Races had engines revving up starting Saturday, Jan. 8, 2022, as ATV’s, snowmobiles, and carts kicked off the Gleason racing season. Racers and race fans came out to enjoy the brisk weather, compete in the races, and cheer on their favorites racers. With registration a couple of hours prior to racetime, racers can register to compete in stock, improved, modified, and super modified racing classes, and there are racing classes for pee wee competitors, who are 12 years old or younger, as well.
The Gleason Community Club, N5335 State Hwy. 17, in Gleason, hosts the races on their oval ice track in January, February, and into March each year. Upcoming events are scheduled for Feb. 5 (night race), Feb. 19, and Mar. 5.
The Wisconsin Kids Snowmobile Racing Association (WKSRA) will also hold their races at the Gleason Ice Oval Race Track on Feb. 12.
