I think Rosie the 7 Iron would prefer to stretch her legs on the Pro track, but the long track is a lot of fun.
Thanks Pat, this is awesome whatever track we run.

Thanks Pat for the early race dates announcement for 2012. Much easier to plan our season!
Take care and have a great holiday season.

This will be the first weekend of the Mosport bike week, with the Canadian Superbike the following weekend. The Mosport track is undergoing extensive renovations, at the moment.

As you might know, North Bay will not be available this year because of airport construction. We are busy looking at different options for July 2012 and will let everyone know what we can arrange as soon as possible.

I have never done one of the preceding track days, but when Sunday rolls around have always thought "shoulda been here Thursday". An extra day at a place like Mosport is never a bad idea. Do the endurance race too. When it comes to track time "if a little bit is good then too much is just right" .8)

I've only raced RACE regionals, so the categories are new to me. I'm gonna explore what classes I can run and probably pick 2. I may check out the Thursday and leisurely pace myself. Thnx much
