Snowmobile Racing
Hall of Fame
The Snowmobile Racing Hall of Fame is located in St. Germain,
Wisconsin, just down the road from the Snowmobile Capital of the World (see next entry).
In 1983, Mike Trapp, C. J. Ramstad and Loren Anderson were talking about the
great and exciting history of snowmobile racing. Mike was a two-time Eagle River
World champion and Loren had been a number one bib in open and 650 classes. CJ
talked of the fantastic photo library he had which told the thrilling history of
racing. Before that day's riding was over, the three had decided that a museum
and a hall of fame should be created to honor the race drivers and to display
their unique and exciting sleds. The idea for the Hall of Fame and Museum was born.
