Just thought we would say hello from regina. There will be
2 or us heading down there for sure to your event on your
super track. Looks like a good time. You will be contacted
shortly for further information concerning accomodations
and rates if possible. This seems like a good opportunity
to let everyone know about an offroad event to take place in
Yorkton saskatchewan Oct. 13. Thanks.

Hey guys...as requested, here are a few of the motels in Valleyview, which is the area that is very close to the track.

All of the rates are for a room for two people with two double beds, per night.

The Ranchland Motel $49.00, $5.00 extra per person up to 5 (I believe?) (250) 828-8787
Courtesy Inn Motel $45.00 (250) 372-8533
Davy Crockett Motel $55.00 (250) 372-2122
Kings Motor Inn $66.00 (250) 372-2800

The Argus Motor Inn, which is where alot of the guys from the coast would usually stay, is under new management and therefore would not give as good a deals as before.

Hope this all helps.

Map and directions to the new track comming soon. Stay tuned!!

Hey man....when are you going to get my name right! LOL!!

I can only go by what seems to be the newer of them all, I would have to guess at the Ranchland. It is only about 6 blocks away from the track. Give them a call (250) 828-8787 The rest of them are all close together but are about 12 or 14 blocks away. Hope this helps.

Any idea on how many of you are comming?

See you soon, Korgae.

O.K......I have posted a map. Hopefully it is ledgable?

Comming from Vancouver, stay on Hwy #1, do not take City Center Exit but keep to the left and carry on down the #1 Hwy to Valleyview. Valleyview is the area on the map, just prior to and surrounding the track. Once you are in Valleyview, you will pass by Wendy's, McDonalds and most of the Motels listed in my previous post, on the right hand side of the Hwy. Keep traveling through two sets of lights and on the third set of lights, turn right. This will be Highland Rd. Come up Highland Rd., go straight through the flashing red light and start up the hill. You need to take your first left which is only about a block from the flashing light. Signs will read "Vallyview Arena" and our club sign is also there. Drive up towards the arena and come up along the far right hand side of the building. There will be a road opening that will take you to a large pit area.

There you have it.....hope none of this is confusing??

Hope to see you all there!

O.K.....let's try this again. The map is too large to be posted and might be too tiny to read. If you cannot read it, then email me and I will try and send it to you as an attachement.

Also try the forums in hpiracing.com and the RC Pitstop forums (for lower mainland racers). Oh yes, the Trinity site, too, and undoubtedly a whole lot more.
