MolsonBoy should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Champweb should have been classified as a rumor at the beginning of the report.

I agree with the points above. I question the race date as well.

The the great location of Northalnds has a lot going for it with the parking and the exhibition halls, light rail transit station, access to the major freeways and close to the city center. The last point, location to city center, puts it near residential areas would be the downfall of any proposed track.

As for population, I think Edmontonians are straved for motorsports. In the past the CASCAR races at the City Centre Airport have had great attendance. IHRA Rocky Mountain Nationals at Bud Park just outside of Edmonton also had great attendance. And the World Championships in Athletics held a couple of years ago proves that the city can host major sporting event.

Since there has been no reports in the local media I don't think this purposed track is anything more than that right now. Time will tell.
