Nice! But too bad the class that my bike is decent in, is not running at Calabogie. Ah well, it'll be good for the 600 riders.

You'd have to detune that FZR of yours to make the 80 and under hp limit

Finally regional racing clubs are working together to provide a benefit to their customers, regional racers. It only took 3 years for people to talk to one another for their mutual financial benefit.

Not true just because you dont see it doesnt mean it doesnt happen. Celine asked us to do Calabogie months ago as they lost their shirt last year and I declined. I have attempted to have a working relationship with RACE for years only to be shot down by Gautier. Chris and I communicate regularly but he is an employee and cannot make calls and the owner has no vision. TFR is getting pressure from ASM and RACE had a tough year last season so this is a good move for both.
As for Bogie SOAR will never be there until changes are made.The track isnt safe is my first reason, the second being the cost. I suspect that RACE isnt contributing money its simply an exchange of events where TFR hopefully gets their numbers up and RACE gets extra TFR riders for their round. Wont work for SOAR as we would get no riders from Quebec and I cant in good conscience have a SOAR round at Calabogie.
I suspect that RACE will do better than TFR in this deal. The costs for bogie are outrageous and the costs to protect it are even more. Last year they put out 800 bales. Just for reference it takes 2500 for Mosport so 800 doesnt even come close (yes I said the same thing to Celine). (BTW its $3/bale) thats on top of the other costs.
I suggest anyone who wants to go better get there as I cant see this happening again.

Yes, I see that they have a less-than-80-hp class, but it doesn't directly cross over to any of RACE's classes, and I'd get stomped on by SV650's. I may do it anyway, we'll see.

Beef that 400 up for the weekend. There will be some 125gp and 250gp there for sure plus some SVs and who knows what else for the under 80hp. It's going to be a good time no matter if you podium or not. I'm going to race at that weekend. I'm not getting any younger.

Bogie is a amAzing track. You can lean to your hearts desire the track is soo sticky.

This has been refreshing. We haven't had a RACE/CP versus SOAR/GTAM bitchfest in a while now.
