If the NHRA wasnt doing right by them, then they should move on.

How far is BC and this track from the US border ? Dosent travel to Canada now require a passport as well ? Maybe this was part of the reason. Just curious......

Canadian racers are some of the downright most determined group I have met, one drove 5000 Miles to run at Gainesville from some crazy north place in Canada Id never heard of west coastish but waaaayyyy north, and if memory serves right he lived 400 or so miles from the nearest track, nice guy, crazy but nice guy and not one to let anything come in the way of his fun.
Drooze, it sounds to me like you're speaking of "Abe Loewen"? If so, he's a great guy, and I just wish I could travel like he does, because only Fletch, Iacono, Biondo, and Faul, haul (no pun intended Mark) even close to as much as he does...
