What was your intended objective when you started the build?

Improve Jeanie’s suspension to do better in the curvy oval race

What motivated you to start your project?

Entered Jeanie in the Melgeorge’s Antique Snowmobile Race but finished out of the trophies

What was the most unique and creative thing you did to the sled?

Swapped in a newer Yamaha Ovation skid.

What are you most proud of?

Jeanne’s been in the family since 1984, taught all our children how to snowmobile. Its always been a reliable “daily driver” snowmobile. Now she lives out her retirement on Lake Vermilion where she’s always ready to scoot over to the Vermilion Club to meet with friends old and new.

What do other people say about your snowmobile?

Wow! So Cool. We used to have one of those and it was so much fun.
