Canada Day Weekend is one of our most popular race weekends!

We celebrate old school racing with the Alberta Fairgrounds T-Racers, on Saturday. The cars are all original Model-T parts, including the original two speed transmission. The motors are all four cylinder (with about 20 horse power) and do 50 MPH.

The T-Racers started racing together in 2016 and this will be there third event with us. A great group of Model T enthusiasts who decided to recreate a race from 1941 held at Victoria Park (the Stampede grounds today) in Calgary. The Lions Club originally put the event together to raise money for children orphaned in the war. There will be a special presentation related to the Model-T’s
also.
