Jim Cressman of the London Free Press has had a pair of items published in the past week in which he details some significant changes at Delaware Speedway, near London, ON.
They include a consolidation of ownership (down to one from four) and a return to NASCAR sanction for the weekly racing divisions. Delaware was the first track in Canada to have NASCAR sanctioning, back in 2004, but that relationship was shortlived.
Race Director Jeff Wilcox said the track is willing to consider a NASCAR Canadian Tire Series race in 2009 if available, but it's a more realistic goal to look ahead to 2010 for that series. Facility upgrades are also in the works for this summer, according to Wilcox. They include track repairs in turns 3 and 4 and upgrades to the washrooms, concessions and other infrastructure items.
