An enhanced driver`s license will get you into Canada.

All of what you are saying about crossing border is correct
For us going into usa is exactly the same question and routine checks for gun cars drugs dogs etc

I believe that an enhanced Driver's License will get you in and out of Canada. Maybe someone can verify.

I have a car with no title. I stopped at the US border patrol on the way into Canada, and they issued a form identify and describing the car. Had no problem time after time with the same form. Then one time, I crossed at another border. The first person gave me a hard time about the age of the form and that it hadn't been issued at that crossing. A supervisor overruled them and let me go.

Friends of mine crossed near Buffalo NY heading for Michigan. Had a dog and dog food with them. Canadian border patrol asked them if they were carrying dog food. Treated them like criminals and took the dog food away from them.

For the most part, I have had little problems at the border. Stay calm and be polite. They have little sense of humor.

Hi Matt/Greg/Adam, If traveling with a Motorhome will the food & beverages that we normally bring with us when racing in the US be an issue, and confiscated at the border?

Sorry for my many questions, however I don't want any issues crossing into and out of Canada.....Thanks

You will find the 2023 Napierville National Open event flyer. I also place
a Micro Strategies title series sponsor logo which is missing on the poster.

Please see information/updates below. Look forward to seeing everybody!

1. Crossing Border: If you have your documents(ie. Passport, Vehicle/Trailer registration) you will not have any issues. Track is 15min North on HWY 15(aka(I87) from the border. Border sees lots of racers from US every weekend and are familiar with the track. Leave your guns, knives, tazers, mace at home. No drugs. There is a large grocery store less than 10 minutes from the track which also sells tobacco and alcohol related products.

2. Run Details: All eliminations will be a set ladder going into round 1 just like NHRA does at all National and Divisional events. NO RANDOM PAIRING.

3. Gafftech Solutions is paying for ALL stk and ss racers T&T on Friday. We encourage everyone to come and test! :)

If any of you have any questions, feel free to call me at 613.229.9582. We will be at the track Thursday morning.

Be Safe, see you all soon!

Kevin why no random pairing ? We are at the Numidia open and as im sure you are aware there was a problem with the ladder for 2nd round and lots or racers complained about it and they fixed it and got it done within the rules of an D1 open

Why are they not following those rules for this race ?

Matt, this was decided at the beginning of the season for all Canadian Opens by NHRA. I do not see an issue with this format since we use it for every other race in NHRA. Canadian Opens typically have less than 64 cars in attendance; therefore pairing up 1st round should be relatively quick. Hope to see you and your father there. :)

If I decide to run both a stocker and a super stocker, how will that work? Will I have time to run both cars? Will stockers and super stockers be run together at some point? Trying to figure out the logistics of this. Thanks!

Kevin, my concern is will it be organized ?
Q-shots in sessions like a normal Open or will we be called to the lanes willy nilly , mixed in with the local racers who are going to blow their horn when I haven't moved up three inches in the lanes?
Don't ask me how I know....
