| why not come in and give it ago.maybe could bring some of his racing buddies with him.the more the merrier.the 96 looked good the day he raced at avs.think he had a 1st in the heat race and a 2nd in the main.had a great yarn with the guys after the races they seem to be good guys.

| 17 may not be very many but at least it gives the racers and the fans from father up along a place to enjoy a day at the races

| Judgeing by the pictures they only have about 40-50 fans, and 8 cars. I would'nt even post pictures like that, it's embarassing!! Someone must enjoy it, it's still open.

| if thats the case why even bother 4 owners in ten years or less tells you something or maybe it dont.maybe the owners could not get through the short term pain.i said you had to have money to get you through the short term pain if not dont bother even trying to start your business.it takes countless numbers of hours and hard work you have to be very committed.

| 17 cars you should be able to have 5 races at the most if all show the same week.3 heat races 5 and 6 cars in a heat,top 3 finishers advance from each heat thats 9 qualified for the a main.the remaining 8 race in the b main with the top 4 advancing to a if they like to.thats 13 for the a main.leaves you with 4 cars not qualified for the a main.if any of the 4 remaining cars have won a race sometime that year they could take a provisional( the option of racing in the main)but they would have to start at the rear.that way most of the 17 would get a chance to run the a main.sounds good to me.

| The tracks I attend weekly, Brockville and Cornwall, have both been open since 1969! The track I was at Wednesday was Can Am speedway in Lafargeville, NY. I think it's been open since about the early 70's, I'm not sure of the exact year! I have been there quite a few times over the years, but Wednesday will probably be my last! That because the passport policy goes into affect starting next year, and I don't think I'll be getting one! It doesn't matter, there's alot of good racing on this side of the pond! You never know, I might show up at Avondale some day!

| What you guys say makes sense, problem is there are 17 cars listed but only a 6-8 ever show up and they are only 4 cylinders.

| Are Conwall and Brockville closed now and will you need a PP to cross the border next year? I thought you only needed a PP if you were on an aircraft?
