    weird, I ran a race during the snowman attack once, the snowmen never attacked me even though I saw several along the track. I just figured they didn't agro on ppl while racing, guess I was just really lucky?

    The snowmen usually do not attack . . . I think the Devs forget every once and a while to make sure the "do not attack racers" button is pressed.
    Have you tried the new forum on your phone?

    This. Ran a couple of races during the snowman attack this year and they completely ignored me. I suppose it is possible that as long as they aren't aggroed by some other player, then they don't attack racers.

    Previous years had the snowmen attack racers and might have been fixed during the last Winter Event.

    Two days ago, I was getting pelted left and right as I ran the race. Made it anyways, but it was annoying. Yesterday, I decided to try and shoot some back as I ran, see what happened... well, nothing happened. Not only did they NOT shoot at me, but I was unable to fire at them, either. Once the race was over, my guns unlocked, but I have to say, I was both a little relieved and a little disappointed at the same time.

    Players renamed the event 'fastest g a y on ice' due to several reasons...

    I've been running this on all of my alts daily and the difference between being attacked or not is directly related to being targeted before you start the race. IF the snowball fight has started (and you've been targeted by a snowman) and you then hail the race starter, you can be targeted during the race. If the fight starts during the race you are not targetable until you cross the finish line.

    I hailed the race starter while under attack many times. The attacks cease immediately, and no attack during race.

    Are you sure it's not players (Dental, etc) exploiting the bug to attack you for lols?

    Every time I've had the stupidity to run the race during the snowman attack and gotten attacked and frozen, I've still ended up winning. :P

    Well this time they were too many and attacked in multiple waves, one near the end.
    My HP dropped till phrozen near the finish line.

    they never fixed it so racers do not get attack last year and this year me and a ton of people i know get attacked during the race before we start and while we do it if the snowman attack starts.
