Yes it does. I know this is not a racing thing, but a car guy and gal thing. This will definitely effect Goodguys in Puyallup, Washington July 23-25. We always have a HUGE turnout of Canadian cars at that event. BIG impact. Kind of hard to plan for our northern brothers and sisters when there is BIG problem in planning and getting here. See you all next year.

Even if the border does open on the 21st, how do you make plans for an event that is 2 days later????? And YES the event is a go.

Tru-Dope doesn't care, he's not restricted. He is trying his darndest to ruin the country and it's about the only thing he's done well at.
Mission Raceway is only allowed fifty people total including staff.

The useless dictator running (or ruining) our country has never wanted the Keystone XL. No doubt in my mind he had a hand under the table stroking Biden's ego on that decision.

One of these days, I am going to load up all my racing stuff, stop at
Taco Bell, and make a run for the border. The Americans want me there
spending money. I just won't come back till they have the borders
figured out. Or maybe not come back at all.........

Trudope was behind by months in getting the vaccine. 3rd world countries got the vaccine ahead of Canada. Its not only the family of Canadian racers that are not able to do what they love but the revenue that is being lost by all aspects of cross border travel on both sides is devastating.
Good news story on Fox News https://www.foxnews.com/politics/dem...r-restrictions

Do you know how close to the 75% you are now ?? Seems like an awful tough number to reach.

[Bob Gullett]

It’s close. Not sure exact numbers. Glad when this whole deal is done.

Thanks to the Chinese and Trudumb the failed drama teacher we are prisoners of war up here. He is passing laws that would never have passed with opposition. True dictator! Thinking of applying for refugee status to the USA or fire a cannon over the border and throw up the white flag. I speak English and love to work........... might fit in down there! I like the Kentucky area if I get to immigrate.

Bob, we have met and surpassed the "required" percentages as required/laid out by all levels of government to reopen; however all too quickly for our all knowing leaders agendas! Now there are new measures, restrictions and timelines which have been implemented. Vaccinated vs unvaccinated, flying vs driving to USA, interprovincial quarantines and restrictions...Now even the vaccinated are not safe...but no fear fellow Canadians...Trudeau, Ford and the rest of the brain trust of Canadian Politicians will let us know when we can have permission to leave our homes!!! Sheep away!

Sean and I will see you all at Indy!
