Not sure how far PEI would be from Gorham, but it would be around 5-6 hours from Bangor.
There is area's for on-site camping, but alot of racers stay at Bayside Campground which is right behind the Drag strip & stock car track. about a 2min drive.

doo900, I am assuming you would take the #2 into Newport and hit the I95 which will take you too New Brunswick. From the NB border you are about 3 1/2 hrs. then its another 3 hrs to PEI.

Did any of you guy`s attend the drags at Sydney last weekend??
Don`t think i seen any of the above sleds there ,any ways there was over
250 entries with 40 in the sled and bike class and the sleds took ,1,2,3,4.

A stock 04 firecat ran a best 0f 10.68 at 116.5 mph on it`s thrid pass
down the track (first pass of the truck 10.93 at 114).

A 800 imp doo ,Rev ran 10.30`s-10.40`s on race gas ang twin pipes ,

stock Rx-1 ran 12.65 at 104

and an other one was a 1000pro stock Doo 9.43 at 144 mph with a bad bog
so it is gona go faster as will as the Firecat cause it had ####y60 ft times of 1.65`s
and no tansfer.

Must of been 18-20 sleds not as much as usual but the weather
wasn`t nice either. Can`t wait to get mine together now..........

Well, due to rain all week-end, the Bike/Sled meet that was to be run this past week-end on PEI, has been postponed until August 21-22. It was good to see all the people who did show up even though the weather was forcast for rain. Hopefully everyone will be able to make it in August!! See you there!!

I watched Ron Bray run a 1/4mile et of 8.81 at 148 mph on his Mach Z at Brainerd International speed way in Minnesota, it was cool to see him smoke that super bike.

Well, the bike/sled week-end was able to run, the weather did not cooperate on saturday, the rain fell around 1:30, got some passes in. Sunday the weather was sunny all day, good runs all day. Only about 40 bikes/sleds turned up, the weather forecast must have kept some at home. My fastest pass was 11.2 @ 110 MPH 1.5 60ft, got to the third round sunday, no traction and unable to run down the yamaha. (need some clutch work done!!!) They will try the same race next year!!!!
Did anyone else attend??
