"Matt Weidenger has broken a world record today on Lake of Bays. The world record for furthest distance travelled on a snowmobile in 24 hours was held by an American. Weidenger set out yesterday from Norway Point to bring the record back to Canada. He maintained a speed of about 120km/hr, only stopping to refuel. Although it's unofficial, Weideger's team says when Matt crossed the finish line today at 3:00pm, he had beaten the previous record of 2,262km by more than 300km. Thanks to Dan McCormack for passing along the photos!"

2262km = 1405.5 miles
300km = 186.4 miles
1591.9 miles in 24 hours, more than most people put on in a season.

I thought the speed limit in Ontario was 50km's. How was that possible. I guess if you go for a record you can do that.

ok it's getting late and has been a long day and I didn't see they stated it was a new 2011 Power Steering model. Just looked at the pictures of the sled. Time to go home and sleep!

Chad, Chad, Chad..... You did not really think that he could turn that heavy pig that many times in 24 hours without power steering did you? ;-)
