FYI.

Last time when I went to Dunnville, it was a really fun track and technical. This time they're doing clockwise and counter clockwise runs...anyone else interested?


We have the track Saturday evening from 4:00pm - 8:00 pm, cost will be $75 prepaid.

A little background -

The Dunville Circuit is one of the safest tracks you can learn on. It's not very fast (save for the around 1/4 mile back straight) and very technical. It's also very fun and you'll spend the whole day mastering your line, and there are some pretty good photo ops.



This is how it will work, for those not familiar with our track days. We are limiting this track day to about 32 cars since we have 4 hours lapping time instead of 3. This gives you plenty of time and room on the track while keeping the crowd down.

We usually have a briefing prior to getting out on the track, followed by a few warm up laps, then lapping for the rest of the day. "Lapping" refers to just that, doing laps. Passing is STRICTLY prohibited except on the back straight, and only when the person in front of you has allowed you by by signaling you to pass. We reserve all rights to kick people off the track that are driving dangerously and/or aren't listening to track marshalls.

For those that have never been to the track, I encourage you to try it out, even if you're still on stock tires (they'll suck, and burn up quick, but it's still fun)

All those interested in attending this track day on June 7th, email to (info@Touge.ca) and Sign up

Include first name and last initial, car type, & contact info

i.e.
- My name is your name
- Contact: your Phone #
- Email: your email address
- Your car model:
- Your car color:
- Your car year:
- I want to drive my car at the track on June 7th.

- Helmets are mandatory for convertibles.

Helmets are strongly recommended for safety reasons, you will have to sign a disclaimer at the track, for those who do not wear helmet and not following flaggings, and our lapping rules, the participants take full responsibility for their action. (if you have helmets, it won't hurt to bring them up). All convertibles drivers must wear helmets! If you don't have one, you can rent one at the track for $10.

All those interested please email me & sign up asap. I want to build a list and collect money as soon as I can.

Well...I was the only MS3 there...and there was a CG sedan but prolly not on the board.

Running the track counter-clockwise was fun! Was in a convoy lead by 2 STi's and a RSX, then me...I was putting on some pressure and promptly chased that RSX off the track at a high-speed turn, where he lifted and went off...lol...

There were some serious cars there:
