If you still find the old sleds interesting or want to see what it was like to ride a snowmobile long before "bendy Tracks" , "Twisting Skids" and "Flickable 800's" Then stop by the vintage display to see how far technology has come and say hi. The "Alberta Relic Riders" Vintage club display seems to get bigger and more popular every year. You think it is hard making a buying decision today....................imagine what it must have been like back in 1970 with over 100 Snowmobile manufacturers telling you that theirs is the best ever Lol.

My uncle would go nuts over that polaris TX,That is what he bought new after high school.
440 free air,the colder it is outside,the faster they go.
Old iron like that is pretty cool.

Will the wedge be there?
These pics are from the past 2 years. Every year we try to have an assortment of many different models from as many different manufacturers as possible. A lot of guys restore a new sled every year to show so won't know what will be there this year till tomorrow night. A lot of these sleds look better than when they were new
