ARL Prepares For East Coast Invasion
July 29, 2010

Halifax, NS The Atlantic Roadracing League is gearing up for the busiest two weeks of their 5 month race calendar. The next 2 weeks will see the Shubenacadie circuit and surrounding areas explode with racers from all over the country as ARL holds Round 4 of their Atlantic Championship and then plays host to the final rounds of the Parts Canada Superbike Championship the following weekend.

July 30th- August 1st will see ARL holding Round 4 of the Atlantic Championship at the 1.6 mile (2.5 km) Atlantic Motorsport Park. This will be the 2nd year that ARL has organized Round 4 of their regional series to be held the weekend prior to their National event. This is to allow away riders to come down a week early and get as much track time in as they can, plus it gives spectators a great chance to get into the swing of things before the big National the following week. So far away riders have taken full advantage of this opportunity, also relishing the chance to soak up some of that famed East Coast hospitality.

The following weekend, August 5th- 8th, will see the countries best make their annual pilgrimage east for the Atlantic stop on the Parts Canada Superbike tour. This time, things are slightly different. Traditionally the east coast stop on the tour was the penultimate stop on the calendar, though this time it will be the final stop. All season a championship battle has been brewing and its set to come to a boil at AMP in August. All 5 National titles are still up for grabs and if the past is any indication, AMP will provide some great races to decide the final title standings.

Adding to the excitement is a strong mix of fast local riders looking to show well in their home event. The east coast is home to some of Canada’s fastest riders with multi time Canadian Champion Don Munroe hailing from Bedford, NS- just 40 minutes from AMP. One of the main reasons ARL keeps organizing the Atlantic stop of the Parts Canada Superbike Championship is to provide their riders with a chance to showcase their talent on the National level without having to travel half way across the country, something that is not feasible for most local riders. This is a great opportunity for all local riders to show well against the countries best and leave their mark on the National series, one we sincerely hope everyone takes advantage of.

With established national stars Jordan Szoke, Jodi Christie, Francis Martin, Alex Welsh, Steven Nickerson, Raphael Archambault and co all ready and rearing to go the stage is set for some great racing. Throw in local fast men Todd Scott, Andrew Dunlap, Ron Munroe, Charlie Legere, Austin Shaw- O’Leary and Mark Goodwin and things get even more exciting. Are you ready?
