New Late-Model Team at CCS...!!! YEAH!!!

[LMS-QUEBEC]

AL DICKIE PURCHASE'S JEAN CYR'S CHAMPIONSHIP WINNING ACT CAR: JULY 1/07
This is some very good news for Capital City Speedway and in particular the Late Model class which has not seen the support that we felt would happen this season, but hopefully this announcement is the start of the turn around for this class. Al Dickie has just returned home from Albans, Vermont where he has purchased the #32 ACT Late Model Car of Jean Cyr, a car that Cyr won the championship with and a car that will be a very welcomed addition to CCS. The word on the street is that a former Capital City regular Late Model Driver and someone that is considered one of the best drivers in this area is scheduled to do the wheeling of this car for Dickie. We are not at liberty to name that driver at this time but he is someone that everyone will recognize and someone who is no stranger to Capital City Speedway. The Late Model Class at the speedway was in great shape in 2006 but has not had the support this year that is needed if this class is to flourish at the track, hopefully Al's major move will shake up a few of the other teams that have been sitting on the fence. There is no question that we need to have a good car count in this class if the track is to grow in the years ahead and this move along with a few other things that are happening that we cant talk about right now will make the Late Model Class take the lead again in the growth of the track. Al and team getting ready to head home from Vermont with the #32 tied down and ready for the trek home to Ottawa and the cars debut This Wednesday night. Al also informed me that a new legend car is also in the works for this team with driver to be name at release time.

Une nouvelle équipe LMS devrait faire ses début prochainement au Capital City Speedway d'Ottawa.

En Décembre 2005, avec l'achat de la piste par Arnie Malcolm, on annonçait le retour des Late-Model à titre de classe principale au CCS-Ottawa. Une formule équivalence et transition permettait la présence des anciennes voitures CASCAR-Sportsmen. Quelques équipes s'étaient servi de cette formule de transition, avec sensiblement de succès, en transformant leurs anciens CASCAR-Sportsmen pour se conformer au règlement LMS.

Si la participation était restreinte en début de saison 2006, on est vite passé à régulièrement 10-12 voitures en piste pour des Finales de 35 Tours en classe LMS, les Mercredi soir, au Capital City Speedway.

Pour 2007, seules les voitures conformes au règlement LMS de la sanction sont acceptées, ce qui a obligé certaines équipes à remiser les vieux CASCAR-Sportsmen devenus LMS. De plus, les 2-3 CASCAR-Sportsmen qui n'avaient pas été modifiés en LMS courent maintenant en ONTARIO SPORTSMEN SERIES.

Donc, la participation LMS au CCS-Ottawa se veut lente à progresser. Chez les dirigeants du CCS-Ottawa, l'annonce de la venue d'une nouvelle équipe est donc vu d'un bon oeil et on espère qu'elle saura susciter l'intérêt de ceux qui n'ont pas encore sorti leurs voitures afin de franchir le cap des 10-12 LMS en piste sur une base régulière.
