Well said thunder6 , i think it would be great if we could get the management from barrie and sunset to sit down and get a mutual race schedule or an intertwined schedule that works for both tracks. Something like they did a few years back with the simcoe county shootout or even the peterboro,barrie ,sunset race challange.Come on guys, for the sake of racing and fans that enjoy both tracks ,lets get on the ball.

from what i understand the tracks were getting along fine and there was a good chance of this, then glen at sunset banned barrie thunders without telling anybody at barrie he simply put up a poster at bayside. This might be tough now as glen seemed to put a wedge in the friendship process.

Too bad, there was such opportunity here for some great competition... And in reality the cars are not all that different and everyone knows it, that ruling was really ignorant.

slammer its really too bad that more of sunsets fast runners were not there this might have not happened. the next g cars do not dominate at barrie. In the top 3 2 are old gen cars. the next gen are the same car and must way 150 lbs more if they do not run the crate engine so they are not too fast. i think it was a bad decision and glen should have done more research before making his call. For your info he even told old gens that they had to run sunset tires, sunset front end rules,ect ect how can that be an invitational? Its supposed to be home track rules. Anyways it its too bad because it makes for real interesting racing and it would make for a good series as the two tracks are so close together...

the reason for the barrie cars having to run the sunset tire is because apparently the barrie tires are a softer compound


apparently the tread numbers or something like that indicate such


that's right out of the mouth of fred pombiere

Of course we can be friends... we might just give you a hard time sometimes... My understanding is that the Sunset tires are 7", Barrie tires are 8". I have both and I can feel a little bit of difference. The Sunset tires have 770 on the side and the Barrie tires have 880 on them, which I believe is indication of size and then hardness, so the Sunset tires are 7" 70 hardness, the Barrie tires are 8" 80 hardness so they are a little bit firmer, the Hoosier scale seems to go up from zero. I really don't think this is such a big deal, and I think hellothere is right, if some of the front runners from Sunset had've showed up at the first Invi that never would have happened. I think some people are making excuses to keep Barrie cars away because some people have done their homework, and some haven't. Not starting anything, just stating my opinion.

very well put there slammer if everone thought that way the would be no warnings on bannings on this site. each track has its ups and downs, but being a bsw guy myself i lean the other way but have freinds at bolth tracks.
if I seem a little biased toward Sunset or Glenn and his descision making so be it, it's my Saturday night get away..!! :P

And in reply Slammer, I am a little biased towards BSW, and the ownership team of Brad Moran and Steve St. Onge (and their staff, too)have always treated me very well. But I won't tell you you're wrong for liking where you race, I'm sure if you didn't you wouldn't go there! Actually I would not think very highly of your opinion if you were to constantly put down your own Speedway...

wow it's awesome to see some guys from the 2 rival tracks getting along. You guys have said it like i have always said it and believed it to be. I like Barrie and just cause somebody doesn't or likes another track does not mean i will bash them! I understand that everyone may have a different opionion. It's just nice to be able to state your opinion without being bashed about it! good job guys and/or gals!

   I have been involved at sunset since it opened, back when the Shakells started it and then a few years later they did run together and work together. That was when every race at either track, the stands were full and lots of rivalry between them. Like mentioned it would be so nice if they could go back to that and like said on another post stop the running down of any track. They all have the ups and downs. I for one did bad mouth Sunset and after a cooling down period feel sorry for the bad posts that I mad about it. Maybe if we were to work together and try to talk to the owners and managers we could see that happen again.
