Racing on Canada Day
Went looking through the scrapbooks for a Canada Day (Dominion Day for the oldtimers) racing event. That is, a race scheduled outside of a track's regular line up of events. So no Saturdays or Sundays allowed even if they fell on July 1st.
Of course, there were lots to choose from. I chose drag racing at Mission. Seems like I remember these supercharged Anglias from 1966. Was I there that day, or another?
No matter, that day back then I remember as being cool and damp. Today (the day before Cday) was hot and muggy. And if the weather gods smile on promoters then racing will happen. If they don't then your favourite beverage will taste just as good. On Canada Day or any other day.
So Happy Canada Day all! And for the folks a little south of here Happy 4th of July when that day clicks around on the calender.
