Our Story
How did we come to build a calendar of Snowmobile Drag Racing events in Canada?
About Us
This site was designed and built as a project of Maxceleration Dealer Services. The owner, Mike LaValley, is an avid snowmobile drag racer and has been competing since the 90's. A little more about his racing efforts can be found at his team website, Maxceleration Racing.
​
Over the course of his racing career, Mike has travelled across Western Canada attending events, but finding places to race has not always been easy. Even with the advent of the internet and social media sites, it often meant searching many web pages and scrolling through seemingly endless Facebook posts to locate race information. As a racer, what if you could find a list of races all in one location?
​
As a race host or promoter, getting the word out about your event is always a challenge. Attendance is always a little better the farther you can spread the word. Do you create your own website? What will it cost and will people see it? Do you start a Facebook group or post it in multiple existing groups? Will your event get lost in the never ending social media stream?
​
As an advertiser, how do you target your advertising and get your logo in front of people most likely to be interested in your product or service?
​
The answer to these questions launched this website, Sled Drags Canada.
We'd like to offer a "Tip of the Hat" to Rick Wilde. Many years ago he was a pioneer and ground breaker in the promotion of snowmobile drag racing with his videos and website. Rebelsled was an undertaking that started it all at a time when the technology didn't particularly make things easy. We thank him for his inspiration.
