      i dont see anything in fergus or pelican lasting too well... how many times has the circle track shut down in fergus, and if ppl down there were actually into drag racing they'd make the 40min trip to sabin... ppl would maybe run one time there and then not come back... and pelican is out in the middle of nowhere...

                I'm thinking it would be very tough and expensive to actually build a new track. But... maybe he's thinking about using an airport in the area ???

                      Spoke with another racer at BIR Thursday afternoon and supposedly the dirt work is in progress and he's hoping to open the gates next year.

                      shrug

                      He had info on where it is but I wasn't doing real well following his directions.
