“I think the U.P. 200 is finally just getting the attention it has deserved. It's always been a premiere event. With the turnout we've seen this evening, it shows that it's the premiere event, especially as far as the Midwest goes and the lower 48 (states).”
“The U.P. 200 is just so intense for competition. If you lose 20 minutes in the Iditarod, most likely it's not going to cost you a place. If you lose 20 minutes in the U.P. 200, it could cost you five places.”
