The death of Canadian road racing

Time to invite them to compete with the AMA boys in an 'All Continent' Series? Couple tracks dates N of the border, coupl South of the border. Rules ala European Superstock and let em go...

The problem, as has been stated, is that Colin screwed up the AMA series.

I would vote for CCS to become the pro series in the states, and FAST can become the race series in Canada. At least one rule would have to be implemented in both series though, Colin Fraiser must be shot on site if he attends a race event or any official meeting.

I think that you mean RACE, not FAST. FAST is the racing school.

I think that we could get a fairly good National series through the co-operation of RACE (Shannonville), SOAR (Cayuga), and Turn-2 (the track school that runs out of 'Bogie). Add in TFR (St. Eustache) for the Quebec contingent, then rent Mosport for a round. ARL (Subenacadie) could be the coastal round, as they are for the Nationals now.

Only a few classes would be carried in all those groups; perhaps just Pro Superbike, Pro Sportbike, and Amateur Sportbike. Each group could choose maybe 2 additional, local classes, to act as support races.

Only one problem with that; egos. I don't know the guys at ARL or TFR, but the owner of Shannonville has an ego problem. I like Ken at SOAR fine, but he's got the ego going on too.

I was going to ask but wasn't sure.

RACE is a step up from SOAR but both are pretty good series.
