In the video below, you will see the boys lining up at around the 2 minute mark and beyond. You can only see the east half of the track.
Griffin, who will be running his 300 Massey in the Sr Youth class this year was doing laps at around 70 seconds. I haven't done the calculation to get an average but I checked lap times in the 20 lap enduro race in Kincardine at 60 to 65 seconds with faster sleds and that is a .5 km track whereas Tiverton is .7 km. So I cannot say exactly how much but I am pretty sure it will be faster for sure. |

Hi Folks: We are proud to announce that the Williamson family of Tiverton has graciously offered to be a host for Grand Prix de Kincardine races on their family farm. The location is 182 Main Street, Tiverton, on. They are directly behind the Teeswater Concrete lot on the east end of Tiverton right on hwy 21. Ian Williamson and his wife Kimberley Baker and their boys Griffin and Reese have been a big help in promoting our events by being with us at all the Santa Claus parades we were in the fall and the Tiverton Fall Fair parade. |

Folks:
We have been setting up possible alternative plans in the event that our 1st date set for January 7/8, 2012 has to be cancelled due to lack of snow.
We have zero snow on the ground and the long range forecast is not very promising.
So, here is the likely scenario that will take place.
Jan 21/22, 2012 race would be at the track in Tiverton
February 4/5, 2012 would be at Family Funland in Kincardine.
The owners of Family Funland had planned to head south right after the race on January 7/8, 2012. If that race is cancelled, they would leave early and be back in time for the race on February 4/5, 2012. |

I wanted to add some clarification for the new Youth classes. We want to keep this classes strictly for new racers wanting to gain some experience in a safe and fair manner. To that end, racers that want to race in the youth classes, will not be able to race in any other classes. Once a racer decides to move from the Youth classes into the adult regular classes, they will not be able to step back and race in the Youth classes. This should keep the Youth classes as an entry level class and not one an experienced racer can move back into and dominate due to more experience from racing in the adult classes. |

Hi folks: I am happy to share the new Phantom 250 Action video with you. Justin is one of the featured racers in the video with footage done at the Grand Prix de Kincardine in January 2011. Other races are featured at CSRA races last winter as well. Phantom Snowmobiles are one of our event sponsors and we have been involved with them for a couple of years helping with the launch of the new sled. Hope you enjoy the video! Rob Noakes. |

Hi Folks: I have put a very short survey on our web site. It would be great if you could take a moment and drop by to fill it out. It is a survey to get some idea of the interest level for each of the tentative race dates that we have put together. This is not meant to be a commitment on anyone's part but just an indicator. I thank you in advance for your help! Take care. Rob Noakes Grand Prix de Kincardine Snowmobile Racing. |

Hi folks: I have put together a tentative schedule for races this coming winter. As I had indicated in a previous e-mail, we are working on at least 1 additional venue for racing this year. We are still working out the details with the property owner but to give an idea of what we are working on, it is a parcel of land on the outskirts of Tiverton and there is a great field with trees along the west side and some up the middle to hold snow. The property is set up with some fences already in place and we should be able to accommodate a good group of racers and spectators. |
