When someone says racing above the Arctic Circle, what comes to mind?
If you were to say snow covered trails with some guy with way too many vowels in his name on the power at full opposite lock you would not be wrong. You would just be incomplete. So why put a racetrack in a setting more adequate for reindeer and snowmobiles?
In the summer months there's almost no nighttime. That's right race fans, a track that can be hot for 24 hours with no lights needed. What could you do with a full day of track time? I would squeeze in as much seat time as possible, encompassing every discipline in various platforms.
These Norwegians have it figured out for sure. They road race, drift, drag race and even ball up their cars every now and then. All in a days work I guess. A full day. How does one sleep when it never gets dark? Is there such thing as "nightlife"?
Porsche's, BMW's, American muscle cars and even some JDM rides can been seen tearing up tires in a land more used to seeing rally cars than tarmac-consuming road racers. Blending in the most unique way.
Check out what happens at the most northern track in the world, Arctic Circle Raceway outside of Mo I Rana, Norway.
