There are 12 Points races this season (racers will be able to drop worst 2) This allows racers who have a conflict weekend or breakage the ability to still pursue a track championship.

RE the MOPAR CDN NATIONALS - We have a number of Save A Seat forms in house but we have not yet been able to open the facility and process them. Once we open we will process these orders. Also anyone who had a rsvd motorhome spot last year that we haven’t heard from yet – Lori will be contacting you to see if you want to renew your spot before we open it up.

GRAND BEND MOTORPLEX ( And St Thomas) 2020 DRIVERS MEETING ! POSTPONED !

The meeting was to be held Sunday morning March 22nd at the Western Fair Complex in the Carousel Room( like in previous years) but due to Coronavirus 19 concerns both the Speed & Custom Car Show and our meeting were postponed.

At present we hope to reschedule a Drivers Mtg in the latter part of April, but that is subject to the evolving situation. The same goes for the track opening – we usually re open the office the first week in April and start our preparation to get the facility back open and ready to go. Unfortunately the government has been forced to close all non essential businesses to try and stall the spread of this virus. (There is also a chance that closer could extend beyond April 6th but we will have to wait and see)

Our hope is to be back up and running by the May 24 wkd (May 15-17) but obviously that is a fluid situation. In the meantime, stay safe, stay home if possible and wash your hands often !
