Lake Kvie

Racing on ice.

The Icy winter In 1966 gave on February 6th Esbjerg Motor sport the opportunity to organize an Ice race meeting for sidecar motorcycles and automobiles on the deep frozen Lake Kvie, located a few miles southwest of Grindsted, between Grindsted and the village Ansager.

The track was 1000 m. long.  The track width was 100 m. at the start and 40 m. in the curves. Straw bales marked Infield and outline.
The magazine Motor Bladet brought prior to the meeting a comprehensive pre-scrap, but no results afterwards. But a movie was taken from the race, later converted to DVD.
The picture below is from there.
