On the coldest day ever in Michaels Mercer Raceway Park history the Jack Frost/crashing through the snow enduro was revived after an absence since 2017 as the temperature never rose above 9°. Ronnie Boyd, who has picked up two previous Jack Frost Enduro wins in 2014 and 2017 captured his third event win, defeating his brother Ryan by 6.6 seconds in the 16 car affair.

Ryan would lead the first eight laps until Ronnie could get around and lead the entire rest of the race shortened to 100 laps. Ronnie would say, “it’s a lot of fun!! I watched my brother in my mirror and the heater was on full blast I didn’t get cold at all!!! Track wasn’t bad the inside was nice but sometimes slower is better!!

Ryan would finish 2nd on the lead lap. Robert Stroup would maintain a continuous third in the event five laps down. Reise Fischer from 9th would finish 4th 7 laps down and Jeff Work Sr. from 7th would be 5th 9 laps down. Leigh Wheeler who picked up the first ever Jack Frost in 2008 would finish in sixth 10 laps down.

Owners Earl and Michelle Michaels and promoter Mike Mathieson would like to thank everybody who came out to support the event.

The event was sponsored by Dev’s Sailors Market, Virgile Iron and Steel, and Stoney Run Camping.
