From a press release:

Daredevil Ryan S., stuntman Ken Remer, and local ice racer Jeremy Orr will be meeting and taking photos with fans at Two Jacks Cycle & Powersports in Wilkes-Barre on Friday, Dec. 8 before World Championship Ice Racing takes over the Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plaza in Wilkes-Barre Township this Saturday, Dec. 9.

Ice racing bikes will be on display during the meet and greet from 4 p.m.-6 p.m. at Two Jacks (338 Coal St., Wilkes-Barre), plus fans will be able to win tickets to see the show. Ryan S. is a four-time Guinness World Record holder for the fastest wheelie on ice; Ken Remer is the owner of World Championship Ice Racing and a promoter, racer, and stuntman; and Jeremy Orr is a professional motorcycle and ice racing rider from Hulmeville, Pennsylvania.

On Dec. 9, World Championship Ice Racing presents The Next Generation Fire on Ice Tour at the Mohegan Sun Arena for one night only at 7:30 p.m., featuring the biggest names in professional motorcycle ice racing and the craziest riders on Earth racing wild Unlimited Outlaw Quads and more.

These racers will be rocketing around the arena’s solid ice track, shredding the ice with razor sharp studded tires, and hitting insane speeds (going from 0-60 mph in less than three seconds), all racing for the most prestigious World Championship Ice Racing title.

This action-packed night of professional racing comes with chills, spills, and thrills and a no-holds-barred racing attitude that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Wilkes-Barre is in for an extra special treat on Dec. 9 with special guest appearances from daredevil Ryan S. and Ken Remer, a stuntman who will be attempting to jump his quad from ramp to ramp through a ring of fire and has been also been known to light himself on fire.

Tickets for World Championship Ice Racing are $15, $19, and $29. Kids tickets start at only $9. Ticket pricing increases $3 day of show. Tickets are on sale now at the NBT Bank Box Office, ticketmaster.com, and all Ticketmaster outlets.

This race will wrap up a weekend of ice-related events at the arena, including the 14th annual Open Skate and a Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins game.
