Racers have need for speed at Merrill Ice Drags

MERRILL - A tradition of need for speed on the ice continues in Merrill. Racers hit the ice for a friendly competition Saturday.

Engines roared at Counsel Grounds State Park in Merrill Saturday.

"I just can't believe they've been here for fifty years. I talked to some people I know in Medford and they're like, 'Really that's still going?'" said first time racer Ken Heser.
