Zack
Woods of Owen Sound won the lap time challenge at the Grand Prix de
Kincardine Power Sports Show held Saturday at Family Funland, just
south of Kincardine on Highway 21. Woods, who is part of the Southwestern Ontario Lawn Tractor Racing Organization, finished with a time of 49.51 seconds, followed by Alicia Noakes of Inverhuron with a time of 49.60 seconds, and James Langtree at 49.65 seconds.  The top three in the lap time challenge are Zack Woods (seated), Alicia Noakes (L) and James Langtree The weather was bright and sunny for the first-time power sports show in this area and, thanks to the many exhibitors and those who attended, it was a great success. The businesses and organizations with displays included:
One exhibitor, Bill Moffatt of CPI Recreational Products, just returned to Ontario from China, signing contracts and arranging deliveries of snowmobiles to Canada. What started out as a snowmobile-racing hobby has turned into a production company, he said. He has developed a prototype racing sled that is being tested by Transport Canada to ensure it meets environmental standards. "This Canadian design and engineering is being produced in China and should be for sale by mid-October," said Moffatt. He and his family have been supporters of the Grand Prix de Kincardine snowmobile races since they began a couple of years ago. The event is held in January, with the winner taking home the Kincardine Cup. A video of the parade lap from the Power Sports Show can be seen on the website click here
