Anyone thought to just call the track and see if it's simply an oversight in the "legaleese"?
I thought the same thing so I emailed them a couple of weeks ago when this first happened. All I received back was an statement that they were not allowing people outside of the United States at this time.
I called Route 66 again this afternoon and asked about this. The lady that answered said she would have to check with the supervisor and call me back. This was about 3 hours ago and I have not heard back. I will keep you posted.

Big Wedge I heard that Rich from Pinks emailed you what's the verdict?
Mike
I got a very quick response from Rich (within the hour). He claims this is not part of his rules. He was glad I brought it to his attention so he can look into it.
My current plan is to submit an application next week when it opens and .

I hope this gets resolved soon, I will be very hacked off and hope others would be also, if this kind of blatent discrimination against our good neighbors to the North is allowed to occur! Sometimes we forget who had our backs all through the cold war, who allowed DEW stations to be built on their land, who, at great risk to themselves, helped smuggle Americans out of Iran during the Hostage crisis! After all that, they earned the right to play in our toybox! Not to mention, they come here Legally and leave money as opposed to sending it home! My .02. Lee.

Update I emailed Rich yesterday about any progress on this issue and again he responded within the hour. Here is what he had to say; “Garth I spoke with the president of the track. He will be accommodating all the Canadians in one fashion or another regarding registration. Thanks for the heads up. If you a have a problem registering let me know. Rich” Things are looking up. I will be putting in an application for sure and hope I am selected to participate. I would like to thank Mr. Christensen for all his assistance and I hope to see you in Chicago. Thanks also to all those on Moparts for their support. Garth

QOUTE I got a very quick response from Rich (within the hour). He claims this is not part of his rules. He was glad I brought it to his attention so he can look into it. My current plan is to submit an application next week when it opens and . Glad you got that response from RICH. But most will still have a problem that its written in a form by RT 66 then. With the application they are not denying you from TRYING to get in now . Good luck the MOPART members are behind you. DR
