GRAND BEND, ON – The 2017 Ontario Legends campaign will be changing its landscape and into a travelling touring series this upcoming year. The purpose built 1930’s coupes and sedans will be split into both Eastern and Western series races. The Eastern series will be racing this year at Sunset Speedway, Peterborough Speedway and Kawartha Speedway.

The Western Series will move from a single track series at Grand Bend and extend to a multi-speedway touring series. From the tight confines of Grand Bend Speedway, Sauble Speedway, Flamboro Speedway, and the ½ mile of Delaware Speedway.

There will be a combination event of both Eastern and Western Series at the Grand Bend Speedway annual Fall Classic in the fall.

Western teams are excited to travel to the various speedways this season to challenge their skills on four speedways. Defending Champion Brandon Thurlby will be trying to fight off series regulars, Jacob Sheridan. Josh Indig and new competitor Joe Adams for this year’s crown.

The teams will kick off the tour at Grand Bend Speedway June 17 and host next to last race as part of the Annual Fall Classic September 9.The Fall Classic will double as a combination event for both the East and West tours. The shortest, but arguably the toughest track on the tour, Grand Bend Speedway has been the host of the Legends series in recent years.

The teams travel to the big, fast ½ mile of Delaware Speedway on Saturday July 1 and share the bill with the APC United Late Model Tour, and Friday August 11. The teams did an exhibition event in 2013 and will return for the first time in four years.
