Correction re date! Thanks Stacey Chapman for the heads up!

Hi folks, we are now solidifying our participation - with the Formula BMW cars - within the first race weekend on May 26th.
We have still 2 seats available and would love to have a "full" field at the starting grid. This also means that, if you have a formula car, regardless of hp or ccm, you are more than welcome to participate.

The format: Saturday - not yet confirmed track times but we need you to meet us if you run the FBMW to fit seat belts and paddles as well as your seat - this can also be done prior to Saturday in Halifax.

Sunday: 2 x practice; 1 x 10 minute qualifying; 2 x 10 laps races

Cost: C$2,500.- all incl except damages, if any!

So please email me - [email protected] or call us at 902 880 6010 and leave a message as we are racing all over right now.

Just read this…. Not mine but good for sure;
“Last year I replaced all the windows in my house with that expensive double-pane energy efficient kind, and today, I got a call from the contractor who had installed them.
He was complaining that the work had been completed a whole year ago and I still hadn't paid for them. Hellloooo,............just because I'm blonde doesn't mean that I am automatically stupid. So, I told him just what his fast talking sales guy had told me last year, "that in ONE YEAR these windows would pay for themselves! Helllooooo? It's been a year!", I told him.
There was only silence at the other end of the line, so I finally just hung up. He never called back. I bet he felt like an idiot.”

Thanks for the laugh, Catherine Ryan! Made my day!

Bretzels without California taste, sun, dust or ranch smell… but also without the nice people we have had the privilege to meet over the past 20 some years at the track and Willow Ranch Restaurant. Home for a haircut, laundry, love, home made food and Easter celebration…. Air Canada is waiting…

Not so sure about FB anymore when reading what they can do and what you are restricted to disallow them to do. This all basically stinks to heaven, control freaks and no shame in using whatever pleases them to do. Wait for the latest algorithm and AI will take over. Can’t wait to see my face or that of my children etc etc on a commercial for some drugs or chewing gum…. How to stop all this? Well, not that easy as they have all already but how about making our politicians responsible for this? Nothing to do with free press or speech! Fricken decency is the word of the day!

Atlantic Racing Team is moving forward with the Formula BMW cars to establish once again a mini series. This series will definitely also welcome other open wheel manufacturer cars and classes, from Formula V to Atlantics of any ages as well as sports Prototypes and so forth. The dates will be coinciding with all other races to be held at AMP (Atlantic Motorsport Park), usually planned as a one day event (most likely a Sunday) as well as giving drivers the opportunity getting used to the cars/track possibly via a Monday tune & test day. So please stay tuned for more news. Questions? Please email to [email protected]
