When's the track supposed to open up?

hmmm great pix;nice teaser; but I didn't notice an area set aside for a pit area.........  wonder where it would be?  Usually on the infield I would think; and if they are going to put in a bridge or tunnel access but that would be expensive. 

But a neat looking layout.  Would be a ball screaming down that long straight then seeing if you have any brakes left.....
then screaming some more....

No "official" word via CMP's web site, but internet rumours are talking about June or July next year.

There's a detailed-but-hard-to-read PDF of the layout at CMP's web site, which shows that which looks like it might be a pit area near the "bottom" (PDF doesn't show north/south so please excuse my directionally-challenged description    ).

If you haven't been there recently, Calabogie Motorsports web site has been updated... big time.

News releases including a planned opening next July, a couple of videos of the track, etc.  Worth checking out if you have time to kill.

Excellent articles. I really like the description of each one of the turns in detail. Makes me think about installing a roll cage though

[aaron88]

Why?  Are you expecting to roll over?

  He thinks it will make him go faster.

Maybe I should think about ski's on the sunroof.
