In an effort to provide S.W, Ontario racers with a proven and inexpensive racing option, plus provide our
fan base with more great racing action, Grand Bend Speedway (GBS) has added a CAN/AM Legend series
for the 2012 season. With the help of B.O.S. Auto Parts(Windsor), McColl Racing Products(London) and
Bishop’s Performance ( Michigan) we have put together an 11 race series – The B.O.S. CAN/AM LEGEND
SERIES PRESENTED by McCOLL’S RACING ENTERPRISES.
The 11 race series will consist of 6 races at Grand Bend Speedway, 4 races at Whittemore Speedway in
Michigan, and 1 race at Owosso Speedway in Michigan. ( We are also working on securing sponsorship
for one additional race at Grand Bend on the Road Course in mid July). The series will have INEX
sanctioning and is unique in the fact that there will be a points fund for the Ontario races, a separate
points fund for the Michigan races, and an overall points fund for the entire series for those racers who
run both sides of the border.
“The Legends racing program is a great option for many racers as both cars and parts are readily
available, and with a defined set of rules it allows them the opportunity to race both locally and
throughout North America”. Says Brad Clarke manager of GBS. “There are programs all around us –
Eastern Ontario, Michigan, New York, etc. and we felt along with our sponsors that South Western
Ontario is ready for a program of its own”
The season kicks off May 19th at Grand Bend Speedway, our highlight event will be the Summer
Spectacular July 7th when we have the Lucas Oil Can/Am Midgets join the Legends and all the other GBS
classes in a big Bonus $’s event. For information on the legend series and GBS go to
