Put this on your calendars guys. It would be cool to make this a week end meet. This will be the second time the european ice racing circuit will come here in north america. Last year I posted it but nobody was interested. It's located 90 minutes east of Montreal. Everybody is welcome to stay overnight at my place if they wish. The cars have tubular frames, AWD, 4WS, sequential gear boxes. Some are turbocharged, some 6 cylinders. They belch out 2 feet long flames out of their exhausts. The sounds of the engines are as cool as any formula 1 car ( I live less than a kilometer away from the F1 track in Montreal) http://www.challengecanada.com/ notice the length of the shifter. if you haven't figured it out, it's a Peugeot These 3 pics were taken from a rally friend of mine, Jean-Francois Coulombe, at last year races 440hp Acura NSX engine. non turbo. ------------------ Michel http://www.azur.qc.ca/rallye [This message has been edited by Michel Brais (edited January 31, 2000).] [This message has been edited by Michel Brais (edited January 31, 2000).] [This message has been edited by Michel Brais (edited January 31, 2000).]

If I lived back East I would definitely be there. Those cars are phenomenal. I don't know why ice racing cars from Europe can make it to N. America but rally cars can't. I'm going to try and race a east coast event this year; probably Charlevoix. Are you going to race at Bighorn and Rocky this year?

I'm in!!! can we race our cars? hehe just joking!
It would be really nice to see some more ppl there!
That kind of racing is even better than F-1 in my opinion... much more action!
Anybody knows if Rael will be there this year??? That guy makes me laught trying to compete at a level way to high for him... but you can make real good deal buying his car after the race... I once saw a twin turbo race ready RX7 he had raced in montreal for half the price of a stock one... and the car was in perfect condition...
Hope to see you there!!!

C'est à St-Sulpice (pres de Repentigny) Ca a l'air de rien comme piste quand tu la regarde mais c'est vraiment bien!
Surtout de voir le visage des autres qui conduisent des VW ou Civic lorsque tu décolle en AWD et qu'ils entendent le son du turbo! ahhhhhhh la joie!
Sauf que moi si j'y retourne j'amene une pelle et des traction aid!
j'ai deux records sur cette piste... celui qui à atteint la plus haute vitesse de pointe et celui qui s'est le plus pris dans le banc de neige... Ai-je besoin de dire que les deux sont arrivés dans le même tour??? hehe
