Canadian AutoSlalom Championships Fast Facts:

Dating back to 1972, Canadian SoloSport competitors enjoyed a National AutoSlalom Day with identically designed courses run on the same day on different venues across the country from which national class champions were determined. At its height 890 competitors competed across Canada.

Due to handicaps such as different temperature, elevation, weather, and racing surface condition in 2000, a group of enthusiastic SoloSport competitors from across Canada created a single national championship event, the Canadian National AutoSlalom Championships, which ran through to 2002.

With the formation of the ASN Canada FIA National SoloSport Committee in 2002, the ASN Canada FIA Canadian AutoSlalom Championships concept became part of the mandate of the ASN National SoloSport Committee and the committee elected to hold an annual Canadian AutoSlalom Championship event alternating between eastern and western Canada.

In 2004, the National SoloSport Committee created a national set of AutoSlalom Regulations and in 2005, added a new feature for Canadian AutoSlalom, a formula for determining an overall national AutoSlalom champion.
