Secret Street May 4 in Calgary

Where : Racy City Motorsport park www.racecity.com for directions

Secret Street , for those that don't know, is an event where for $25.00 anyone can bring their car to teh track for unlimited runs on teh dragstip and on an autocross course set up on the 1/2 mile Oval track.

And i just so happen to be the one that runs the autocross course

over the years i have had a few RX7s out, other than mine, but would always love to see more.

So If the weather gods are nice to us, and May 4, is free of rain and snow, Come on down and check things out! Just be sure to stop over at the autocross track and say hello

I didnt realize that a road course was also set up for that same admission fee. Is there plenty of open space at times for neophyte drivers? Maybe I'll just swing by and check it out to get and then can partipate at a later date. It'll be more than just this one time this year, eh?

There is no road course set up, but there is an autox course.

The road course isn't open for road racing or anything like that. |You may mean the drag strip? it uses teh front straight of the road course and you have to drive along the back section on the return road. |But thats it.

the Autocross is set up on teh 1/2 mile oval track, so banked cornering in places . and they go every friday weather permitting. I am working on getting a section of teh racecity.com webpage for autocross related announcements too.

I'd bring my Jeep Liberty but Car and Driver suggests it would roll over on the Auto X Course.

Oh and don;t think you can let it loose on the back section of the road course after a 1/4 mile run. You get kicked out for that

I'll be there. I may participate in the autocross, but most likely I'll be there just to watch first.
