Just wanted to share the joy of the opening of a new track close to my place.
http://www.circuiticar.com/ Here is an article on the opening. http://www.gen-auto.ca/icar.html Now we have this new track (used to be an airport), as well as: Mt-Tremblant: http://www.lecircuit.com/circuitDocuments/...0Eng1%20(2).pdf PMG: http://www.pmgtest.com/testing3.html (love the big triangle in the center the size of 18 football fields of homologated perfect asphalt) St-Eustache: http://www.autodrome-st-eustache.com/fichi...it_ASE_2007.pdf Sanair: http://www.sanairracing.net/z_eng/index.htm all these tracks are within 1 hr... not bad for Igloo land... plenty of room to go dog-sled racing (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) 2hrs away, I have Shannonville, and then Mosport @ 4hr away.

I was looking at the track map. The bottom portion "drag strip" part of the track makes no sence to me.

I guess they want to please different markets, and avoid ppl racing on the street. There is a 1/8 mile setup @ St-Eustache, which is ~10-15 minutes away... I guess that's the one that will suffer the most. but who cares about the 1/4, 1/8 mile... lol |

I am looking at making the turn halfway down the strip to the backward carossel. There is no curbing where it needs to be, also there is curbing at the end/beginning of the dragstip, as to suggest making a u-turn there. |
