Another ACT date

For those of you who just can't get enough Late Model racing at Oxford Plains Speedway, you're July just got a little busier.

OPS and the American-Canadian Tour have agreed to run the ACT Time Warner Cable 100 on July 7 at the track. It will help replace 2 ACT dates that had been canceled -- one at St. Sanair and one at Circuit Ste. Croix.

It adds one final "test" date for the same Late Model cars prepping for the TD Banknorth 250 at Oxford Plains on July 22.

The St. Sanair date was originally listed for the same night the Time Warner Cable 100 is being run.

I've heard one scenario suggesting that a PASS North Series event could be added for St. Sanair this year, and it just so happens that PASS is off on July 7. However, it's a big, fast track (7/8-mile) and there's not a history between PASS and St. Sanair to speak of.

If PASS is going to work with Dennis Lachance, they better be very careful. A good part of the reason they cancelled races at Ste-Croix and Sanair was the price gouging he was responsible for.

If he's promoting a PASS show at Sanair he wouldn't think twice about charging fans $40 - $50 for admission, and racers even more. Beside that, what would be the attraction for the Quebec fans? All their heroes are running the Castrol series.
