Auburn Hills’ two spring races
previously scheduled for April 27
(Spring Series) and May 10-11
(OPC/ANQ) have been cancelled
due to unforeseen circumstances
according to information from the
Canadian Motosport Racing Club.
Two replacement venues have been
secured to hold these events for the
Spring Series and will be announced
accordingly.
Auburn Hills has every intention
of holding its fall series on Aug. 31,
and resuming the race season and
scheduling commitments in 2009.
The two replacement venues will
give way to Auburn returning to the
SWO schedule at that time.
In recent years, the sport of
motocross has faced much difficulty
and adversity as a result of increased
zoning and regional restrictions
within its communities. Tom Bitz,
Auburn Hills’ promoter said “I want
to apologize to all the people who
have supported Auburn throughout
the years, and let them know we will
overcome the obstacles in front of
us, and we will put on a great fall
race!” “I cannot stress enough to the
riders that in these times, we must
all do our part to support our local
tracks, their communities, and work
towards sharing this great sport and
environment with them.”
CMRC will announce the
replacement tracks for auburn
shortly.
