The Shannonville Motorsports Park is a racing complex in operation since 1974 in Belleville, Ontario. It sits on a two-hour ride northeast of Toronto, Canada, approximately midway between Toronto and Montreal. The park's location near Lake Ontario helps regulate the temperature extremes, easing down the snowfall in winter and cooling down the summer heat. That means excellent conditions for racing year-round, pleasant temperatures, and weather variability adding up to the excitement. Shannonville Motorsports Park is known as "The Birthplace of Champions," with famous racers like the Formula 1 World Champion Jacques Villeneuve honing his racing skills in the multi-purpose motorsports complex.
There are four road course layouts at the Shannonville Motorsports Park: the 4.03-km (2.5-mile) Long Track, the 2.47 km (1.53-mile) Pro Track, the 2.23 km (1.38-mile) Fabi Circuit, and the 1.80 km (1.12-mile) Nelson Circuit. A quarter-mile Drag Strip completes the racing facilities of the complex. Some of the events held regularly at the park are the Mopar Canadian Superbike Championship, the Canadian Touring Car Championship, and the CASCAR Super Series (now a part of NASCAR), to name a few.
The Long clockwise configuration at Shannonville Motorsport Park in Ontario represents the facility's extended layout variant running in clockwise direction at Canada's oldest permanent road racing facility. The Long designation indicates maximum distance utilization combining multiple course sections, with clockwise flow establishing intended corner sequences. This variant serves events requiring substantial circuit length appropriate for endurance racing, advanced track day groups, and championship competition.
Operating the Long CW showcases Shannonville's comprehensive infrastructure where multiple configurations serve diverse motorsport requirements at this historic Canadian circuit established in 1966. Ontario's continental climate creates distinct seasonal racing windows with operations primarily May through October, winter conditions preventing year-round use. The Long clockwise configuration provides maximum challenge serving Toronto-area motorsport community at Canada's oldest continuously-operating road course, demonstrating the facility's evolution through layout expansion over five decades.
Shannonville experiences cold winters dropping to -10°C and warm summers peaking at 27°C in July, with the optimal May–October track season offering 19–27°C highs and reduced rain.
