ALSTAR SERIES NEXT YEAR
« on: October 21, 2006, 10:03:13 AM »
well its looks like the 3 race showdown didnt go to to wellthis year. I personally always enjoyed the show taht the alstar series brought to barrie speedway. its a shamethat top drivers as the tiermas, are sellin there cars this year, and kyle donaldson got of it. I hope to eihter see this series revive itself to how ti used to be, or cancel it, and another local track run tru latemodels at there track

The ALSTAR series just doesnt have the draw that it once did. For both fans and drivers, some of this goes back to the crate engine argument and that Joe wont allow crates in the ALSTAR series which stops alot of Kawartha, Delaware and Flamboro guys from running. So now with less drivers, I beleive the last season they toured that only had about 15-20 cars on average, and for what it cost to bring them the tracks werent making it back. So ALSTAR is pretty much dead and OSCAAR is gonna be the place to be in 07.

Is there some evidence supporting the idea that OSSCAR's on the rise, or is it just wishful thinking?

I'm not seeing it, but then I didn't see any OSSCAR shows this year.

Having said that, all the ALSTAR boys are more then welcome to come race on Friday nights with our (Delaware) boys. Always a good show when those guys make it down.

That's good .... OSCAAR needs all the cars they can get!

I remember the show at Sauble this summer had only 13 or 14 cars (although it was perhaps the series best race in years - 50 laps, no cautions - 4 cars battling for the lead, over in 18 minutes) and the only place they seem to be able to draw 24 cars is at Kawartha.

I hope you are right, but everyone thought that OSCAAR was going to be the place to be in 06 as well.  I love OSCAAR and wish that the series would have consistant car counts because when it is good, there is nothing better.  True there are 4-5 new faces for '07, but it seems that for every 4-5 new they add, there are the same amount that leave or run a limited schedule.

The ALSTAR website, under 2007 Schedule, says, "Coming to a track near you." Perhaps a sign of things to come? Lets hope so!

Well here's what I just read in my recent issue of inside track.  apparently Joe is hoping to announce a new touring series schedule in early December.  Now that its Dec.9/06 hopefully some good news comes to us Late Modle fans that the series is travelling again.  And for you OSCAAR fans Derrick Tiemersma is heading your way.

The Alstar Series website shows that it was last updated on December 8 so I guess Joe is not yet ready to announce what will be happening with Alstar.
