Nashville on May 1.

The mayor of Nashville has taken control of the county and the track is NOT going to be open.

Just heard from a reliable source that Facebook page for Alamo City Motorplex is opening this weekend for test and tune. Bracket race 9 May. As far as I know Division race hasn’t changed dates but isn’t that NHRA’s call?

Well the border isn't open so I don't have to worry about it.

What is the current state of passage between US and Canada ?, I have some friends in the Montreal area that I race with and some that I camp with in Northern VT. Also , is there any time line for the Canadian tracks ? Normal opening for them ? I am 300 miles from Napierville

As of now the border is closed, open only to essential ( commercial ) travel. May 15th is a date that has been kicked around, nobody knows.

RT 66 posted last night they are closed until June. 41 is in the same boat. North Iowa Dragway tried to get a permit to open for this coming weekend and was told no by the county.
