That area where he smashed the world record. Bracebridge Huntsville Halliburton in Northern Ontario is the best snowmobiling in the world. Not to far from Toronto or the Airport's is another plus. Congrat's on a record many of us feel we could break

not sure about the Polaris finishing 24 hours. the guy from US who broke the record before matt beat his, did two of his laps on a Polaris before it blew up .... he did every other lap on a Yamaha. if you think you or another brand could do it, then get out there and giver!!!

damn u are stupid! Any snowmobile these days could do 24 hour!!! maybe ski doo(nt) could not but ac,polaris could do that!! but 2900 kms is VERY much on 24 hours!! I dont think it was that much

[ramblnman24]

it's apparent that yamaha must of been behind him in order to get a 2011 yamaha to break it with. good publicity for the new power steering !

[ramblnman24]

something would break on a polaris long before he got close to this record! lol
