THE CKiW iRADIO 76 "THE 5:15 SHOW" WITH BILL ALEXANDER OF THE MICHIGAN SNOWMOBILE ASPHALT DRAG RACERS ASSOCIATION 6/30/20

Today we had with us Bill Alexander of the MSADRA on "The 5:15 Show".

At the pre-production meeting for the show, we had to explain to staff how you could race a snowmobile at a drag strip in the summer. After watching some videos on the MSADRA Facebook page, staff came up with even more questions. Thankfully, Mr. Alexander answered not only our questions, but he took time to answer questions that were coming from our listeners. Mr. Alexander deftly informed all how the association started, talked about what it takes to get started, the differences between drag racing a car vs. a snowmobile, all of the different classes in the sport, what kind of safety equipment is needed, the membership of the MSADRA and how it is run, how the members interact, the cost of snowmobile drag racing, Mr. Alexander's history in the sport and so much more.

Editors Note: I just wanted to say that we were very impressed by not only Mr. Alexander, but by the reputation that the MSADRA as developed. Mr. Alexander did not disappoint on air and is a fine credit to the sport of snowmobile drag racing. We held Bill way over our time slot, and he graciously stayed to answer a mountain of questions. No wonder he and the MSADRA gets high recommendations from track owners. We will have Mr. Alexander back with us 8/17/20. We are looking forward to it.-John
