Dear CASCAR Western Series and Sportsman Series competitors,

I want to take this opportunity to inform you that the CASCAR Western Series and CASCAR Sportsman Series will not continue to operate in the future. NASCAR has acquired certain assets of CASCAR, and with that will be focusing on running one premier, national division.

For some of you I hope that this represents an opportunity to expand your race operation and step up to run either a full, or partial, schedule with the new NASCAR Canadian Tire Series. NASCAR has recently sent out a series information kit that includes sponsorship support information, that I hope will be helpful in your efforts to join the series.

For those who are not in a position to compete in a national tour, I am pleased to inform you about the addition of a second NASCAR-sanctioned track in Western Canada: Sun Valley Speedway in Vernon, BC.

With the NASCAR Whelen All American Series being sanctioned at Sun Valley Speedway and Edmonton International Raceway, it provides you with an opportunity to be part of the NASCAR family, and to maintain your equipment to a rules specification that will allow you to register for NASCAR Canadian Tire Series events.

For Ontario-based teams, we are pleased to let you know that Barrie Speedway is now a NASCAR sanctioned track and part of the NASCAR Whelen All American Series, and will be happy to accommodate current Sportsman Series teams.

For more information on the NASCAR Whelen All American Series please contact Sun Valley Speedway, Edmonton International Raceway, or Barrie Speedway directly.

In closing I would like to say it has been a pleasure competing with each of you over the years, and I would like to thank you for your support of CASCAR Racing. I wish you all the best of luck in the future and look forward to seeing you at the races!

Best regards,

Tony Novotny
CASCAR Inc.
