4 new rally-X tracks in Toronto area

Who would have thought you could run rally-X in Toronto.

I think this might be part of the solution to rally declining in Ontario.

Bring motorsports to the masses as the Molson Indy found necessary.  This was also mentioned in an article in Inside Track recently.

There are 4 potential rally-X tracks in Toronto
You could run a series with track time every saturday night just like the oval series at Barrie speedway.  I'm told they get 100 cars out every week!!

I've already had practice runs at 2 of the 4 spots.

On one practice session, the owner, all excited, jumped into my car with a stop watch on the first lap!!  Hardly fair.

Tracks vary from 1 to 4 km, gravel and tarmac, all sites are smooth, not rough

3 out of the four sites already have done or do motorsports
so insurance and noise is not an issue.

on a recent sales trip visiting a customer, I noticed someone made a track in the middle of an industrial area

Who would have thought?

Anyways, let's see if it goes anywhere with any of the sites

I think having mutliple sites is important.  If you have only one track, people learn to go fast on only that track

If you have multiple tracks, pleople learn to drive fast on any track they are on.

I like the sound of this!! I race autocross and do enjoy it. But I've always wished there could be a gravel version on it, or even half gravel. However, when I entered the Bancroft rallyX it was teribly rough and I left disapointed. Fred, you said these locations are smooth, but will they hold up relativly well after a few laps of rallyX?? I hope so, because GTA RallyX sounds pretty exciting to me. Maybe some spectators would even show up! And, it would be easier for me to get sponsors help if the race was in the GTA.

I would be more then willing to help out getting the events set up. I hope this works out!!

What are the locations? are the locations safe or legal? What kind of motorsports history do these sites have? Will these be organised by any RSO club or is this a private enterprise?
