Allen Theisen President CSM March 27, 2013 Congratulations to the #21 Jordan Johnson race team on winning the "Hetteen Cup" for a 2nd time! We at CSM are a proud sponsor and couldn't be happier for them on this big win. Great job guys! Jordan Johnson #21 As I am sitting down getting ready to type up our race recap there is a very powerful emotion that has taken over. I hope when I am finished with the recap you will understand why there is this great emotion. Jordan Johnson racing traveled to the “Main Event” for “The race for the International Hetteen Cup”. This race is in honor and memory of the late Edgar Hetteen, the Father of Snowmobiling! This race and event, is as meaningful to our race program as the World Championships! Prior to going into the weekend Jordan and I continued to do significant testing (20 hrs) in attempt to make our race sleds better. So as we unloaded our race sleds there was excitement and anxiousness within our trailer. Here is were it becomes really fun! In the 340 Liquid super stock class there was a total of 16 race sleds signed up. So in the heat race Jordan was able to put our 340 Yamaha SRX in the lead and stayed there until the checkered flag flew. Then in the final, we lined up against some of the toughest race sleds and drivers in the midwest. as the field launched off the line, Jordan was in 5th place somehow finding a line that worked for him coming out of corner four, Jordan gained the lead and never turned back taking the win. In the next race for the cup we ran our 440 Yamaha SRX in the 440 liquid super stock class, competing against 9 sleds including the 2013 world champion as well as the 2011 World Champion. Our goal was to be in the top three. In the last 3 years of racing I have never felt this much emotion and excitement at a race as I did in this race. Jordan shot our SRX into the lead going into corner one and battled, and I mean battled the 2013 champion for three laps to take the checkered flag and the win! Getting back to the trailer to meet Jordan I was so over whelmed with emotions all I could do was give my Jordan a huge hug!! After that emotional win we needed to regroup to go out and race in the biggest class of the entire event. 17 sleds signed up for the 340 liquid /440 fan combo class. Just in this class there was a total of three 2013 World Champions. Can you say incredibly tough competition? Short and sweet recap Jordan raced our 340 SRX as hard as I have seen him drive all season! In doing so Jordan captured the win to really put our race team in the hunt for the overall chase for the cup! In our last race of the day Jordan once again needed to do battle with our 440 SRX against the 2013 champion. I would have never thought in our wildest dream Jordan would be able to beat him two times in one day, but you guessed it Jordan continued his chase for the cup by winning the Open Super Stock class. As the awards ceremony began, the top drivers began to collect their awards, so did the pressure of who was going to be crowned the 2013 Hetteen Cup Champion! The director of the event (Paul Hitchcock) captured the entire ballroom's attention by stating “And the winner of the 2013 Hetteen Cup Champion is...” then a long pause and I mean long pause he said “ #21J, Jordan Johnson!" Once again I became so over whelmed with emotions I could hardly breath. To be able to experience that moment with our entire family was a memory that we will never, ever forget!!! Jordan Johnson racing is Blessed to have been given the chance to race the for the Hetteen Cup and to be able experience the event with our entire racing family!!! Next race recap will be our annual year end fun facts! Have a Blessed Day!!! Dan/Jordan Johnson Racing #21J!! February 22nd, 2013 2013 Rally A Hit! The 2013 Rally was held Feb 9th 2013 and was a huge success! Great weather and just enough snow made for a great day. The year 1970 was the feature with a number of very nice sleds and people dressed in period correct cloths. We are still crunching the numbers but it looks like close to 400 people in attendance and almost 200 show sleds. Thanks to everyone who attended and look for more pictures and updates to follow!

October 16th, 2009 Ready for the Rally? The 18th Annual Classic SnoMachines Rally is 4 months away but there is never enough time to finish those projects. I am still working on mine and hope to have it done by Rally time. Remember the date is February 20th, 2010 and the show is back in St Anna at the Landing Bar. Moving back to St Anna should help with some of the problems we have experience in the past, namely no snow. We plan on having a trail ride. The details are "still in the works" but worst case scenario we could ride on the lake. This years feature is Skiroule and Brut. We hope to have a strong feature turn out much like we had last year with Yamaha. We will have a special show area for these sleds and separate trophies as well as a display inside the bar. We also have clothing with the Skiroule and Brut images on them. Silent and live auction and other surprises.

The Harrison family was in attendance with some awesome sleds as well as the Hetten Cup with the entire Johnson family including 2009 cup winner Jordan Johnson.

Well the masses have spoken. For years since we left St Anna all we ever heard was "when are you going back?" So I am glad to announce that next years rally will be back in ST Anna Mn. With one small change. As many of you remember we had a sometimes rocky 10 year relationship with the owners of the past location "the ballroom" So going forward we will be working with Dave from the "Landing" which is right next door to the "ballroom" His facility is larger and provides the same great access to Pelican lake that we enjoyed in the past. I think Dave will be a great partner and we at CSM look forward to a long and successful relationship. I would also like to thank Tony from Goatropers for hosting our event for the last 4 years. Tony was a great partner and helped us in many many ways. It was a very difficult decision to leave but the timing just felt right. Thanks again Tony! We do plan on having a trail ride at Goatropers sometime this winter. See our web site for further details. Well that's about it remember the Date for the 18th annual rally is Feb 20th 2010 and the feature will be Skiroule/Brut Allen Theisen May 29th, 2009 4th Annual VSCA National Championship! Classic Sno-Machines was again on the road this time to lovely Thief River falls Mn for the 4th Annual VSCA National Championship. The show was held May 15-17th The location was the Ralph Engelstad arena. 150 of the finest vintage snowmobiles from around the country and Canada where hoping for the prestigious VSCA National Championship trophy. CSM was not only there to have fun but we where there to work with Mike and the VSCA helping out with the registration and the judging. The completion was unbelievably tough with most sleds either past show winners or certainly capable of winning. As expected a lot of Arctic Cats and Polarises. All though missing where any King Kats or EXT's. A number of rare race sleds, Mod's 793's speed sleds and Sno pro's. Evening where spent at the Black Cat bar owned by Arctic Employee Joey Halstrom. Good food, drinks and being able to "rub elbows"and listen to stories from racers like Jim Dimmerman made for a very memorable experience. There where also a lot of autographs handed out with my brother Jerry collecting most of them! The show wrapped up on Saturday evening with the awards banquet and buffet dinner in the lower level of the arena. CSM members brought 9 sleds and walked off with 6 awards. Winning where Jim Jopp, Captain Cale Johnson,Jerry Johnson, Schindler Bros and Allen Theisen. The big winner and national champion was Tom Ishe with a Puma 793. A good time was had by all and we got to visit with old friends like Jerry and Bill form ARS, Larry form Vintage sleds, Jack Speckel, Al Brugenthies,Joey Halstrom and a number of CSM members. We also made some new friends Perry Hestness and Jim Dimmerman. A big thanks to Mike and Judy of the VSCA for putting on a great show and can't wait till next year. Allen Theisen President Classic Sno-Machines April 8th, 2009 Now that the snow in gone (well almost!) it's time to start thinking about summer snowmobile shows. Cold Spring Mn will be the place to be July 25th for the 10th annual Classic SnoMachines summer show. The show is held in conjunction with Cold Springs annual Hometown Pride Days. A town wide celebration that includes flea market, brewery tours, food, drink,car show and of course our show. We will have trophies for trail restored and original, race restored and original and best of show. We will also have a free swap. If you where not there last year the swap continues to grow and we want to make it even bigger! There is no charge for entry fee , registration or the swap. So polish those machines, load those parts on your trailers and we will see you this summer. For further information contact Allen Theisen 320-685-9874 or email starcraft4404@aol.com March 10th, 2009 Rally 2009 What a difference a little snow can make! With 4 inches of fluffy white stuff the night before the rally for the 1st time in years it really seamed like a traditional Minnesota winter. The rally was again a great success. Held Feb 21st at Goatropers bar in Farming, Mn., we had a great turnout. Especially stong where the Survivor class and the feature Yamaha class. There where a number of really nice restored and original machines on hand. The snow made for a decent trail ride to St. Martin and back with about 35 machines making the 12 mile round trip. Inside the silent auction provided some tresurers as well as a live auction for some great entertainment. We noticed a lot of new faces winning awards this year as well as some old friends. Best of show went to Bill Adams with a awesome Scorpion Super Stinger. See the complete list of show winners below. Loud sled contest winner was Jerry Leggat with his 793 Puma. Jerry let me take it for a ride at it was unbelievable! Thanks Jerry. At the awards we announced next years feature which will be SkiRoule and Brute. So get those green and orange machines ready. We would like to thank all of our sponsers St. Joe Snow Joes, C and L, Arctic Restorations, MVSS ( thanks John for all the silent auction items!) Mike Kascht, BeeLine, and of course our host Tony from Goatropers. We couldn't do it with out all of Tonys help. 2009 was great and we hope to make the 2010 rally even better.

For all of you who where wondering where the guys from Classic Sno-Machines have gone, no we have not lost interest or forgot about the website, or been in jail. Actually the reason for lack of updates has been issues with the company doing or web hosting and updates. To remedy this problem we have enlisted the services of Larry Preston of VintageSleds.com fame. Larry has been great to work with and will provide us with timely updates. Thanks in advance Larry I know it will be a great working relationship! We at Classic Sno-Machines have actually been very busy since the last update. In September we made the long trip to Eagle River Wisc to attend The show and World championship grass drag races at the famed track. If you have never been there I highly suggest making the trip.The track is very impressive and the people are really nice. On the way there we stopped off at the Snowmobile Hall of fame in St Germain. Also a must see. There are a wide range of machines there. Everything from original trail sleds to incredibly rare restored race sleds.They also have a functioning restoration shop there. look for pictures in the upcoming newsletter. Speaking of the newsletter members should be receiving there next copy of the newsletter in the next 10 days. That should get us almost caught up. Remember we are always looking for people to contribute articles and any other interesting sled related items. As well as free classifieds. Of course we are frantically working on this years rally. Remember it is Feb 21st at Goatropers in Farming mn. This years feature is Yamaha and a sample of the clothing artwork can be see on the site. We have sold half of the clothing already so if you are interested in purchasing a tshirt or sweat shirt you may want to e-mail me to assure you get what you need. My new e-mail is starcraft4404@aol.com We are also looking for silent auction donations. Well I think that's about it, I have to get ready for Waconia. We will be there on Saturday. Hope to see you there. Allen Theisen January 16, 2009 2009 Rally 2008 CSM Summer Show July 1st, 2008 Summer show 2008 This years annual Summer show we will July 26th 2008 in Cold Spring Mn. We will again be hosting the show in conjunction with Cold Spring Home town Pride Days. Lots to do beside admire some of the best original and restored sleds around. There will be a car show adjacent to ours. As well as flea market, crafts, brewery tours and more. Show to start at 9:00 am with awards at 3:00pm Classes to include restored, original , race, trail and best of show. Located just west of St Cloud Mn we hope to have close to 100 sleds in attendance. With gas prices what they are why travel any further than Cold Spring! Come out say hi and have a good time. May 1st, 2008 Jerry accepts an award a the 7th annual Vintage Sled Show held in Hutchinson, MN on March 15th 2008 March 1st, 2008 Loud Pipes!!! January 7th, 2008 The 16 Annual Classic Sno-machine Rally was another success. Finally the temperature cooperated a little but still not much snow. That made for a kind of rough trail ride but 20 or so hardly souls made the 10 mile round trip. The silent auction was a hit (thanks to everyone who donated items) as well as a spirited live auction. Thanks to Tony from Goatropers Bar for all the donations. The highlight of the live auction was the sale of the 1971 Moto Ski which went to a local guy for $225.00 The Loud sled contest drew a crowd with "team Johnson West "taking home the cash with of course a Johnson. Best dressed went to Ray Theisen wearing Skiroule colors. Best of show was a Polaris "lil Andy" It was announced during the awards that next years feature will be Yamaha also look for a new date for the rally next year. We are looking at moving it to the end of February or the beginning of March. Thanks again to everyone that made 2008 a success and look for big things in 2009!" December 10th, 2007 CSM President Allen Theisen just completed this Ski-Roule SE 400 November 1st, 2007 It is time to start thinking about the 2008 Rally again, as mentioned in the newsletter the feature will be any sled powered by a Hirth ® Engine, This is a unique idea as far as feature sleds are concerned – we could see anything from the old reliable one-lungers to the awesome Hirth Honker 793. I tried to find out how many sled manufacturers produced machines with Hirth power under the hood – I can not find any accurate information on this, but I am sure this feature will include a very extensive variety of machines in about as many shapes and colors as one could imagine. The show will again be held at Goat Ropers Bar and Grill located in Farming, MN on Saturday February 2nd 2008, the format will be much like it has been the past two years – a trail ride (approx. 10 miles) if weather permits, a loud pipes contest, a silent auction, a live auction, and of course the awards presentation at the end of the day. The CSM board has discussed the idea of having a swap area as well, at this point we do not have a designated area for this but I am sure we could come up with one – If we have enough interest in this we will provide space for any vendors – Contact Al Theisen @ 320-6859874 as early as possible if you want to take part in this, we did have several vendors at this years summer show and that went over quite well. Remember – Mark your Calendar for Saturday February 2nd, 2008 – the next issue will have more information on this event as well as directions and parking information. 16th Annual Rally & Show Info September 1st, 2007 The 8th annual summer is now history. Hot was the word of the day with temps in the 90s but it didn’t stop hard core snowmobile enthusiasts from coming to Cold Spring MN for the Classic Sno-machines summer show. This years show field was “across the creek” from the last few years location. Providing a better show field as well as easier loading and unloading. There also was some much needed shade. Many different manufacturers where represented with a large number of trail sleds present. Old friends and some new faces made for a great day. A special thanks to Dave from super America for providing breakfast and soft drinks. Best of show went to Ted Stanger with his 70 300d Chaparral. Thanks to everyone who went the extra mile to bring sleds. Next up the 2008 16th Annual Rally. June 1st, 2007 2007 Classic Sno-Machines summer show this will be held on Saturday July 28th in conjunction with the Cold Spring “Hometown Pride Days” located directly behind the Cold Spring brewery located in Cold Spring, MN. We at CSM try to keep the summer show a bit more relaxed than the winter show and rally – we will still have awards as well as a “Peoples Choice” trophy. The show is located adjacent to the Cold Spring Street Machines car show and a vintage tractor show as well as many other activities for all ages around town, you will be able to unload on the street and park your trailers next to the show area – we do recommend getting there before 9:00 am if possible as the street we are next to will be closed to traffic after about 10:00 am. Last year some of those attending brought swap items, once again we encourage this! If you have any items please bring them - we do not at this time have an “official” swap area but you are welcome to bring items in and display your wares near your sled, we do not have room for trailers in the show area but you could park a swap trailer in the general parking area next to the show if you would like. See you at the show!" April 5th, 2007 We still have some clothing items left from the 2007 rally (John Deere and Massey) feature, if you are interested in purchasing any of these items please contact Allen Theisen 320-685-9874 prices have been reduced to move! These will also be available at the summer show as well. March 1st, 2007 Show field view of some of the machines at the 15th annual winter rally and show A special guest appearance by the 2007 "Hetteen Cup" winner Mike Maegher The 2007 CSM best of show winner, Chuck Moser on his winning John Deere The 15th annual Classic Sno-machines rally was held Sat Feb 10th 2007 at Goat Ropers bar and grill located in Farming, Mn. The temperature was a chilly -21 when we arrived to set up for the show, it was cold but that didn’t stop 300+ people with 138 machines from coming to the event. Feature sleds this year were Massey Ferguson and John Deere – we had a strong turnout in the John Deere class, survivor class is also becoming very popular with many great entries as well. Several people did bring their winning sleds from the 14th annual rally to be proudly displayed in the winner’s circle. This event also included a “Loudest sled” contest for the first time – this generated a lot of interest along with a lot of noise! Mike Sobieck was the overall winner with a mint restored 1973 Polaris Starfire 650, a big thanks to Jack and Kevin for helping with this contest and providing the sound meter. Live and silent auctions were going on all day with many very nice items available to bid on including a vintage racing print, pedal tractor, and many other vintage snowmobile parts and miscellaneous items. Mike and Judy Maegher from VSCA were there with the Hetteen cup he won the week before at Glenwood vintage racing event. Best vintage dressed was once again won by a participant in vintage “Cat” gear. Unfortunately the lack of snow forced cancellation of trail ride, many people were willing to ride anyway but the trail looked a bit too rough with about 1” of snow. The big winner of the best of show went to Chuck Moser with an awesome restored John Deere 340s. The feature for the 2008 Rally was announced, this will be “Hirth Power” focusing on the 650 and 793 models but including any machine that is Hirth powered. Overall the 15th annual went well considering the weather was once again a major factor, Thanks to all of the CSM sponsors, Goat Ropers bar and grill, Mike Meagher and VSCA, and last but not least all of the participants for bringing and showing their machines. January 17th, 2007 These JD's belong to CSM club member Chuck Moser, hope to see these at the 2007 winter rally and show - I hope we have more snow than this!, see below more show for details.
