Snowmobiles reaching speeds of 100mph, as well as vintage and ATV races on the ice.

For the past 37 years, we have hosted professional Eastern Pro Tour  ice oval snowmobile racing at our track, the Benson Sports Oval.

Some of the greatest names in snowmobiling history have experienced the ‘thrill of victory and the agony of defeat’ right here at our track. Names like Lee, Vandolder, Riemenschneider, Wahl, Vessair and of course, Villeneuve, have all shaped the course of their careers at the Bonnechere Cup.

It has become one of the most elusive and coveted prizes in snowmobile racing! In 2012, history will be made again, as the top drivers chase down another prize purse.
