O.K. here's what I was thinkin.  You know those lumberjack challanges with the "hot saws"  ( chainsaw's with motocross engines and snowmobile engines ) ya you know were I'm going with this one.

Just think, a 80 hp ice auger spinning at 10,000 rpm,  4' of ice in 2.79 seconds

I WANT ONE ;D ;D ;D

Sure would hate to get it jammed though.  OUCH!!!

you need to put a car battery on a sled and pull it.
Or find a used auger.
option no. 2  run a gas mower on nitro and when the motor blowes and it will!!!!! just fish in the hole that is blowen  in the ice!!!!!
