Stars should go to one of the following tracks next year, without a doubt.

Thetford Mines, Quebec (just ask Enzo Jr., he went last week for a regional race)

SRA Karting

Grand Mere, Quebec

Mike,

I agree with you, and I also wonder why it's taken this long for anyone to say anything about it. PSL and SRA a huge supporters of the Stars series why shouldn't they host a race in Quebec.

If it does happen you better get your Kart out and race!! Or would that break your once a year rule?

LOL!!!!! Nice to hear from you Nate (or should I say read).

Thanks for the support of our tracks, and yes, that would most definately break my one or two a year race.

Michael

Could agree with you more. Thertford mines was amazing. SRA is a great track also. With the amount of Canadians going to Stars events I think it should be considered

The logistics for the STARS program to come to Canada is signifcant and forces the cost of entry fees up. We have a have lots of Canadians at the races, but we still only represent a small percentage of the grid.
Also, we have a couple of race series in Coupe de Montreal and the SRFKC. Both of these series offer great tracks and amazing competition. It's hard to pick.
What we need is more karters, not more kart races. Every single kart racer needs to bring a friend or classmate or family member to the track next year. Invite someone out and let them try your kart. Introduce them to the track owners and event promoters. If just a few join in, that will be great for everyone.
