I've heard that the Grand Bend drag strip will be shutting down in 2 years - anyone else hear that?

Not True.......Nasty Rumor....owner clarified/corrected that rumor on facebook link in website..........he hears that stuff every year.

Thanks for clarifying!....I certainly don’t want to add to the rumor nor do I want to see Grand Bend shut down. Thanks!!

I’ve never been to Grand Bend and would like to check it out and make some passes there.

I’m also looking into attending Summit Motorsport park this year October 2-3 for Street Outlaws no prep event.
My son and I watch it religiously and I’ve already booked the time off work to attend.

Entire Track Surface redone 4 or so years ago.
Best surface around.
Yes Im going watch a No Prep Event this year...tooo scarred to enter..manual transmission wouldn't help...
I believe No Prep at Grandbend takes place at the back road, not on main track.

Any idea what the condition of the road course is like at Grand Bend? Never been to any events there on either track.

I was there the end of last August for a drag race weekend. The road course pavement and curbing were in great shape. Track looks like it would be lots of fun with some pretty fast sections depending on configuration.
The grand stands and facilities were pretty run down tho.
I do believe the no prep stuff would be held on the back section of straight/runway.
We got in shit for checking out the no prep area because it was a live runway for the sky diving club there.

"The grand stands and facilities were pretty run down tho." Yes washrooms all 3 tracks NOT great.
Grandbend pit side/main side stands getting replaced this year....soo they say...
I am too scared to do anything but try drive straight...never tried road course.
