2000 – July 31 – Volume 28, No. 1

Before Jeff Fischer was the wildly successful host (?!) of the Sledhead 24-7 show (we kid Jeff because we’re friends), he was a World Championship-earning watercross racer. In fact, this issue of Snow Week captured blow-by-blow action of not only his first Watercross World Championship at Grantsburg, but also the first-ever for Yamaha. He put a modified Yamaha Vmax SX on top of the box in a rough-and-tumble final. This same issue also has a complete story on the Phil Cashman victory at Wild Rose a couple of weeks earlier. Also, enjoy the behind-the-scenes interviews with racers Dennis Durmas and Bryan Dyrdahl – now both in halls of fame for their racing accomplishments. The Holeshots department carried news of a lawsuit from the old MRP circuit over the manufacturers’ transition to WSA, plus news of big brand switches for top winter racers.
