eXtremely eXciting

The word "extreme" conjures up images of explosions, injury-inducing stunts, Eddie Van Halen guitar solos and horrendous MTV shows hosted by has-beens. If all of these things are your idea of a good time, schedule a death-defying date today as XiiR, the Xtreme International Ice Racing AMA Pro Tour, holds its 12^th championship round at Santa Ana Star Center in Rio Rancho. Watch motorcycles and ATVs race across the rink for frozen supremacy from 7:30 to 10 p.m. Do you drive an ATV? You can be part of the event by calling 891-7309. Tickets can be had for as little as $17 at santaanastarcenter.com. (Adam Fox)
