  • Gravenhurst's Tim Horton's Muskoka Powerboat Races June 23-24

    The second annual event is here! Bigger and better than 2011 and that is hard to do! This race won the race of the year in 2011 for CBF. This event was a feature segment on Powerboat Television last year. My understanding is another film crew will be there this year.

    Added this year to the Merc 20H Classic B racing hydro races are two Vintage/Classic flyby sessions and static displays celebrating TORC's 60th anniversary.

    This town is REALLY behind the event.

    From the Race Director Jordan Elliott:
    In its second year Gravenhurst promises to give you a top end racing experience and awesome event! I'll start with this.... Free Tim Hortons Coffee at the gate for EVERYONE ALL WEEKEND AT THE EVENT... yup, you heard it... Not to mention some awesome prizes and give aways To add to the mix the Antique and Classic Boat Society Toronto Chapter will have displays as well as 2- 12 minute sessions of vintage laps each day (all vintage people welcome to join, see sanction)!!! Free camping at the Hunters only 10 minutes away, free RV Parking across the street in the gravel section of the Independent Grocer lot bordering on the lake side, our new tested super awesome digital clock, Bryan Agar and Brian Sherriff (professional) announcing, security on site all weekend (including fri/sat night)... LETS GO RACING!!!! Oh yea, not to mention racing entries are only $35 per entry if you pre-register... the discount is back!!!

    CBF race sanction is here:

              This is not APBA joint sanctioned, but through APBA-CBF agreement, you can race with your APBA card. You will not get APBA National Points. You do get scored for the weekend and keep any race day prizes/awards.

              To joint sanction with APBA we need about 16 entries to cover the extra costs... we figured this site is too far from USA to draw that many entries who are seriously chasing APBA points.

              Come for good times and fun racing

                  No problem. Our Dunnville, Ontario race in August will be joint sanctioned I believe. Again, couple thousand spectators, beer garden, free camping. In conjunction with a town carnival or fair I believe.

                  www.TORC.ca for event calendar and location maps.
