LAPORTE — With a brisk northwest wind and sunny conditions, an excellent field of 19 B class drivers and 11 A class drivers put on a show for the hundreds of fans who came out to watch the free races.
The Garfield Lake Ice Races were cut short last weekend due to deteriorating ice conditions after the first set of races. It was unclear if races would be held on Sunday, but with colder temperatures during the week, the ice conditions improved and races proceeded without issue.
Chad Tabaka once again dominated the A class with two feature wins and a heat win. Fritz Myers picked up two heat wins, and Jerad Miller picked up one. In the B class, Hunter Weeks won both features.
Sam Delaney, Abe Forseman, Rodney Rogers and Cody Hoffman won heat races, with Kevin Bahr and Tyler Johnson picking up consolation wins. In the side-by-side class, Sherman Rogalski Jr. was the winner.
Races will continue at noon on Sunday, Feb. 26.
