I-500 Win, Sault Ste. Marie, MI

Lucky Number 7: Davidson ices another I-500 title - Sault Ste. Marie, MI - Sault Ste. Marie Evening News:
"Sault Ste. Marie, Mich. —
After the 2010 shocker delivered by the Cadarette Collision piloting an Arctic Cat to its first victory in 42 years, things returned to normal for the 43rd running of the International 500 Snowmobile Race with the event’s winningest driver teaming up with the event’s winningest manufacturer.
Corey Davidson of Holt, Minn. captured his seventh checkered flag, racing the #3 machine with Travis Hjelle while Polaris posted its 22nd track victory by less than five seconds.
Davidson and Hjelle did not dominate the competition on Saturday, but opted to merely remain within striking distance throughout the day. They had just enough left in the final laps to overtake the #33 Skid Row Racing Arctic Cat of Isaac Wolfgang, allowing driver errors and mechanical failures to eliminate most of the other serious threats during the first 490 laps."
