With the current Canadian Postal situation, I've been advised by several Canadians that shipping cars to race hosts in that country is not advised. Therefore, We need to see if we can re-jig the order of the planned Rounds.

Perhaps now is a good time to start on the ex-North American Rounds; those taking place in South Africa, New Zealand and possibly, Australia. When the cars return to North America, we can pick up the Rounds that were scheduled next in Canada; both in Ontario.

I'll contact Richard (slotting since 1963) and see if he's ready to receive the cars. If he is, then I'll ask Mike at Cloverleaf to ship them.

Here is the originally planned order:

1. Audi 1 - The River Run / Massachusetts - mid-April
2. Btaylor - Cherokee Point / Georgia - early May
3. Pappy - Herman P. Finklemeyer Memorial Race Park / Ohio - late May
4. Tusco Todd - UK Black at Mark's Model World / Ohio - mid June
5. Cloverleafracing - Track TBD / Michigan early July
6. D'Art - The Ring / Toronto, Canada - late July
7. Chappy - Lake on the Mountain / Ontario, Canada - mid August
8. Slotting since 1963 - Rhino River Raceway / The 1953 - Free State, South Africa - mid September
9. Munter - The Anaconda / New Zealand - mid October
10. Drw21 - Orakei Raceway / Auckland, NZ - late October
11. Gascarnut - Pebblestone Model Car Circuit / California - late November
12. Retro Racer 44 - Luf's Targa / Vancouver, Canada - mid-December (or after the GVSCC)

This would be the revised order:

1. Audi 1 - The River Run / Massachusetts - mid-April
2. Pappy - Herman P. Finklemeyer Memorial Race Park / Ohio - late May
3&4. Tusco Todd - UK Black at Mark's Model World / Ohio - mid June
5. Cloverleafracing - Track TBD / Michigan early July
6&7. Slotting since 1963 - Rhino River Raceway / The 1953 - Free State, South Africa - mid September
8. Munter - The Anaconda / New Zealand - mid October
9. Drw21 - Orakei Raceway / Auckland, NZ - late October
10. Gascarnut - Pebblestone Model Car Circuit / California - late November
11. Retro Racer 44 - Luf's Targa / Vancouver, Canada - mid-December (or after the GVSCC)
12. D'Art - The Ring / Toronto, Canada - late July
13. Chappy - Lake on the Mountain / Ontario, Canada - mid August

Stay tuned for more info on this revised order of Rounds.

Richard, in South Africa (slotting since 1963), is ready to take the cars, so Mike will be shipping them from Cloverleaf Racing to Bloemfontein, South Africa shortly. This way we can bypass the risks associated with the possible Canada Post strike and add back the two Eastern Canada rounds when the cars return from their ex-North American Rounds (probably about 3 months).

Check this thread for updates on the shipping for the cars to South Africa.
