Tracks in Vancouver Area??

I will be moving out to Vancouver in the next few years and I was wondering if there are any tracks in the vancouver area?

Thanks

Mission Raceway; check out the WMRC website.

I was there at mission on monday for the race school. man was it fun. the track is kind of based on a drag strip with a bunch of turns added; 9 in total (you can see a map somewhere on www.wmrc.ca), mostly lefts. its a tight little track that with 15/51 gearing will make you just hit the redline in sixth on the straight before you'll be wagging that back end to slow enough for the tight hairpin. the afternoon sessions were pretty epic. it was hot and dry for the first one, and i managed to lap a guy in my group (fastest of 5 groups in the school) ten minute sessions that just rock you. the only problem is that my race bike has that fucking 2nd gear issue bad so it was great with the knee down and all in the corners. my laps were about 1:20, and i think the super stars are around 1:10.

steve crevier was there; pitted right across from me and was out on his wife's SV 650, which he did 2 laps, and then brought in to fit race slicks. the best was hearing her say, "now baby, i need the bike to get to work on wednesday" as steve was pulling off wheels. he was ripping around and honking (slightly illegal to have a horn) at all the corner workers as he rallied around. he also was on a little 50cc honda dirtbike with his kid on his lap and he was wheelieing around at less than walking speed in the pits, switching between which leg he'd take off and kick out. i saw him later with his kid again, riding on circles spinning on his knee puck. super funny. people road trip to calgary, spokane, seattle, portland to hit track days or race, althogh it depends where you're coming from, since we have some super twisty fun rides outta vancouver like vancouver-lillooet , vancouver-mt. baker, chakanut drive in washington state and others...

we do really badly need a good track around here.

Cool... thank a lot for the info guys...

Appreciate it...

We DO really need a good track -- one with lots of track days.
Hey, at Mission, when you do the hairpin and come back across the run-off area of the drag strip are you airborne? There's a spot where the pavement changes to the drag area that kind of freaks me out.

yeah 3 savage laps after it started raining in an afternoon session i was trying to pass 3 guys on the straight from turn 2 on their right, and some other dude was attempting to pass us all on the left at the same time. since my 2nd gear doesn't work, i don't have too much pull outta the turns, so i make it up with corner speed and super late braking. anyway, i passed those three guys, out braked the guy who passed me, and had the knee down in the rain around turn 3 when i hammered the gas a bit too much and had a sweet "moment" where my rear spun out to the right for about 20 feet as i rolled on the gas. made it out but yeah, its a nasty bump. i looked back going into 5 and the fast guy was about 100 feet behind me. i guess i scared him a bit...

Ah yes, living the good, scary life.
