The Cornwall Motor Speedway in Long Sault, Ontario, is preparing to welcome fans back to the track for its 57th season of racing. The venue, which first opened its gates in 1970 as Power Dam Speedway, continues to serve as a hub for local motorsports enthusiasts.
Located at 16981 Cornwall Centre Road, the quarter-mile dirt oval has a long history in the region. Since 2014, the facility has been owned by Jacques and Raymond Lavergne, who have continued the tradition of providing Sunday evening racing entertainment for families and race fans across the area.
The 2026 racing calendar features 25 events, including the Super DIRTcar Big Block Series, the Battle on the Border Series, the Fat Les Canadian Nationals, the Empire Super Sprints, and the DIRTcar 358-Modified Series. Weekly competitions will showcase several classes of vehicles, including Modified, Sportsman, Pro Stock, Semi Pro, and Mini Stock divisions.
Martin Belanger, who frequently handles media and promotion for the speedway, noted that the upcoming season is structured to provide high-energy competition for attendees. According to Race Pro Weekly, Belanger stated that there are no regular nights on the schedule, as every event will feature either a visiting series or a special class. The track is set to begin its season on May 17, 2026.
