If you have a sense of history you’ll remember the Paris-Dakkar style cross country Harricanna race, held in the Province of Quebec in the early 1990s.

Based on a similar template comes a Labrador, Canada based event titled “Cain’s Quest”.

The event is a two-man, two-sled team-style XC race covering 1200 miles (2000km) through the untramped and rugged Labrador outback.

The event offers a ji-bungous $40,000 purse and was participated in by 18 two-man teams last year.

Press Release –

Once again Ronald Cantin and Mont Kanasuta have teamed up to organise the 7th “Grand Prix Sno-X COORS LIGHT”.

The event includes 3 days of “training and testing” and 2 days of racing for the pilots who will most probably touch snow for the first time of the year.

Marcel Fontaine of SCM will provide the required ISM sanction and will manage the race. Last year more than $8,000 was distributed to the winners.

The track is scheduled to open on Wednesday, Nov 14. The race will be held on Nov 17 and 18. Last year event had been delayed due to the lack of snow, so this year event already include a back-up date (Dec 1, 2).

70 racers were present last year but more than 150 should be present this year, mainly because it’s their first opportunity to train for the Duluth race.
