11, Kamiskotia Snowmobile Hill Drag, Timmins, ON 
It has been a long time since Timmins has seen this kind of event. The appeal of a hill drag is that anyone with a basic trail sled can enter and have a chance at the podium. Very little skill or modifications are required. With a 500’ distance it’s all about your traction and your trigger finger. Also, aside from sledders showing off their colours, there will be some heavily modified sleds. 600, 700, 800 and 1000 classes. Racing begins at 12:30pm on the Tube Park runs with continuous racing action throughout the day. Tube cable tow lanes will be available to get back up the hill.  
Registration: Open from 8:30am to 11:00am. $25 per class. $5 for spectators, $15 per family. Children under 10 are free. All proceeds go to Kamiskotia Ski Hill.  
Recommended Accommodations: Horwood Lake Lodge

18, 19, Snowmobile Race and Ice Fishing, Timmins, ON 
The track is good with lots of ice. Race what you ride, In other words any 600 cc sled which could go ride on the trails can race in the 600 class and any class above 600cc. If you have a genuine race sled which can only race on a track it is open class. We are asking racers to honest and show good sportsmanship like we know the sledders always do,and enter your sled where you believe is fair for everyone. 
We have a couple Glamping Tipis still available, for those who wish to spend the weekend with us. If we are full we are pleased to tell you that Cedar Meadows Resort & Spa has sponsored our event and will be able to provide you with accommodations as well.
