A proper track meeting FIM standards is needed first. The walls at Mosport are further back now than they were in that video, but not nearly far enough. Most of the international riders boycotted Mosport the next year.

If we can get AMA Superbike to come to Fort Erie that will make me happy for the first few years at least.
