| no scence no affence bys but you think about it, bishop falls and avondale are fightin for fans now, with another race track, coudl mean less fans at tracks, best bet is put two tracks in , east and west and maybe twice a year have one BIG race where east meets west and fr the tell bern please dont avondale is already run down we dont want another, look at the track there are holes size have teh 4 cylinders

| nobody from the east of the province is driving all the way out to the west coast to race or watch.just to costly.

| i also heard of track in st.johns by islander rv then when that happens they will have the islander rv cup, which is every second weekend they race in town and then the next at thunder vally, something like the carquest tour in nova soctia where they got to many tracks if avondale was smart this could be a island of fun raceing, i am not saying loose the dirt track make both take a lot of work the fans and drivers are there, and have the raceing at avondale on sat nights along with dirt on sunday and when you have dirt on sunday will not effect thunder or the track in st.johns, just my thought

| problem is havin races the day after thunder valley is people liek dennis weir driving back and forth, maybe havin dirt one week and pavement the other, so there is time to do any fine tuning before races and yoru also able to watch both races without alot of problem instead drivin back and forth

| bern isnt going to ever second sunday and i cant blame him for that.its a seasonal businees so you have to make hay when the sun shines.i bet thundervalley could run every sunday if they wanted and the drivers and fans would show.

| Tracks that are open every weekend, usually don't run the same cars every single week. It burs out drivers and fans get bored of the same thing. Then problems arise, as is the case at avondale decreasing car count. There are no other tracks that run the same cars every weekend east of Ontario for sure. Most tracks are scheduled like thundervalley.

| There are not many tracks in Canada that run as many races in a year as Avondale Speedway. I have checked the tracks in NS NB and PEI and haven't found any running as many races as Avondale. A lot are finished racing by Sept while Avondale runs into mid October.

| Bay Roberts never ever had loads of cars thats why they ran ever second or third week until it eventually shut down.
