RICK @ the RACES ( 30 May to 1 June 2008)
Fri 30 May Autodrome Edelweiss Que
Sat 31 May Brockville Ontario Speedway
Sun 1 June Autodrome St Eustache (Rain)
The original report for this week has been mislaid, but diary records and photo’s tell me that I was at three different tracks over the period.
On Friday night I was at Autodrome Edelweiss in Cantley , Quebec, where the racing came to an end after the heat races, due to rain. I was there early enough to chat with Mike and Lori Lasalle and their new ‘hired gun’, the talented Jessica Zemken.
After the rain had put a stop to the night, I also chatted to the young Gage Morin, who recently graduated up from the Mini Stocks.
On Saturday I was at the Brockville Ontario Speedway, for a night of Modifieds, Sportsman and Sprint Cars.
During my usual walkabout the pits , I met up with my friend Erin Joyce, one of the Capital City Speedway Legend drivers who was trying her hand in a Marcel Pecore owned Sportsman 
I also came across my good friend Lee Ladouceur, and his Sprint Car crew. Lee has recently made the switch from Mods to Sprints.
One unusual visitor in the pits, was young Larry Wight, making the journey up from Central New York
Once the racing got under way, i was in my usual spot on the middle taking pics.
The Sprint Car feature went to Steve Poirier
Where as their Dash for Cash went to Glenn Styres
In the Sportsman division it was Chris Raabe
While Kyle Dingwall took the Modified Victory
While I was at Brockville , the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series had been scheduled for the Autdrome St Eustache , near Montreal , quebec, but heavy rain, caused them to post-pone until Sunday.
On Sunday 1 June, I should of been at the Cornwall Motor Speedway, but with plenty more overnight rain, it caused an early cancellation.
The post-poned NCTS race was still on when I heard about the Cornwall cancellation, so I set off for St Eustache.
It was damp and wet when I arrived, but being a paved track, there is always more hope of getting a show in the books … They dry quicker than clay.
It wasn’t too bad, and it looked like there was a possibility of some action taking place as the cars lined up to enter the track .
I spotted my friend, Derek Lynch waiting it out, so went to say hello
Some pre -race pomp took place with local hero Andrew Ranger while we waited to see what the weather would do.
Well the rain came down heavier, and the race cars had the tarps put back over them, 
It soon became obvious, the day was over, and I had another rain out in the books
