You mentioned the Georgetown drag strip. I think that is the track (Toronto International Dragway) that Dick Harrell crashed and unfortunately died at.

So you sold the Vega and the 69 Camaro. Now we will wait for the next chapter in your escapades.

Just keep them coming.....

I think Georgetown used to have a drag strip, and Toronto International Dragway is actually Cayuga….. (correct?)

Ryan the Toronto International Dragway is indeed (was) The Georgetown/Acton area dragstrip (now it is all residential housing). Started out as the Golden Horseshoe Dragway. It is where Dick Harrell lost his life 09/71

I think Cayuga was known as 1320 Dragway and Toronto Motorsports Park Dragway or something like that.

I would have to ask my buddy about 1320. As long as I can remeber Cayuga was Dragway Park Cayuga. Then switched to TMP ( Toronto Motorsports Park) when this group bought it an Uli Beari (sp??) runs it.
