DRAYTON – Summer-like temperatures and snowmobiles typically don’t mix, but the Moorefield Grass Drags are an exception to that. The annual event took place for the sixth time on Sept. 27 at Driscoll Farms near Drayton. Hosted by the Moorefield Optimists, the drags drew a large crowd of racing enthusiasts who gathered to watch a diverse range of snow machines rev their engines on a grass track.
