For showers? If you can find a shower you dare use.
For cooking? doubt it, BYO (PERHAPS) the snack bar will have something, but doubt I can find out before we leave. I will give it a try if that is what you are looking for.

[brucesallen]

usually the showers way up the hill are open.

You mention garages in one of the items above. Are there garages to rent/use while we are up there? Or is it more like Mont Tremblant where you'll get a small strip of dirt and like it?

[Mick]

Dirt. But it is nice dirt.

Garages referred to are for the track personnel and equipment. The paddocks are paved.

For the folks that are spending the night, I would like to leave my car near someone that is there. We will have two cars and would prefer to leave the beast there rather than break it down for street. Staying in Ajax, on hotel points.

[Mick]

You should have no problem leaving your car anywhere in the paddock overnight. You won't need a guard dog.

Thank you Sam for the info, very helpfull!
I'd like to get info on the CARAVAN going to Mosport from NH on Sunday
You (Sam) being closest to me, what are your plans? Departure time, route, etc.?

[chaos4NH]

Not sure at this point about the caravan. I am riding up with Richard Murphy, I know Mark S is driving up and Bob Brooks has also asked me about the trip. Mark, Richard and Bob will be at the BOD meeting tonight and I hope to post plans here tonight or in the morning.
