I, For one, will come back to watch the racing in Barrie again on a regular basis if Tom returns. I went to Barrie last week for the first time since June, and the racing was good, but it's always better with Tom there!

I think people will come regardless if all of the improvements happen...but i think he wil be back. A fresh start for all is what is needed and he will get that now. He knows that the competition at Barrie is what it is...so he will be back cause Tom is a competitior.

I like to watch Tom Walters race. I am not a #47 fan, but I know some of you are. If Tom wants to come back, I think that's great, he is a great competitor. But he is not the whole show. Sure he was missed when he left, but it wasn't the catastrophe some people made it out to be. It's just the same as if the #48, #19, #31 or any of the other front runners left. The guy who was leading the points at the start of the year #43 took quite a few races off after the halfway point of the season. So one car leaving is not the end of the world. Tom Walters is going to run wherever he thinks he can win. And he wasn't winning at Barrie. Just my opinion.

I would love to see tom racing back at barrie,new ownership ,new beginning.I think theres going to be a new rejuvinated possitive attitude on the part of all,including drivers,fans and possibly even the local business and corporate area.I for one have many friends that drive at barrie and since toms departure have not got to see much of them.Dont get me wrong,im not beating on sunset by any means,glenn runs a good show and really entertains the fans young and old with his different array of happenings,like school bus racing,figure 8s and lets not forget the rv demolition.I just think tom might have a better fit at barrie,my own oppinion of course.

I would think Gaunt will be back after this year so if thats the case Walters will return for sure.

Gaunt will be running the NCATS Centennial race cars next year...

I doubt it he is out of his league.

That's your opinion. I respect it however, i disagree. He was in the top 10 in points and still might be....to me thats not "out of his league". jmo (apparently i will have to put this at the end of all of my posts from now on, nothing to do with you Sue)

My question is why did Tom Walters come to Barrie Speedway in the first place? He was running at Sunset wasn't he?
