intended). You can find them and his

STILL LOOKING FOR THAT PERFECT GIFT?
It's almost Christmas and you're having
a hard time to find something special for
your loved one that has everything? We
have the solution. Want to add a
little excitement into their stocking and
maybe teach them a few new tricks? No,
no. We're not thinking of a session with Dr.
Ruth, but rather some time behind the wheel
of a racecar!
You are very lucky as there are a lot of
local and BC based companies to choose from.
Here are few for you to take a look at:
For CASCAR fans, how about
Okanagan Racing Experience
based out of Penticton, BC. or if Vernon is
closer to home, you might want to try
Thrill
of a Lifetime.
Don't live in
the Okanagan, that's ok too, because
Proformance Racing can help
you.
If Driving Schools are more to your liking
and your loved one already has been blessed
with a BMW from Santa, you might want to
consider the
BMW Car Club of BC .
If Santa didn't dish out the fancy car, how
about the
Sports
Car Club of BC or
Sidorov Precision Driver Training.
All in all the racer in your family will be
stoked! Have a Merry Christmas!

As always, UP2SPEED gives us some
things to ponder about. Markus'
article delves into racing from an amateur
(read non factory sponsored) racers
perspective. How expensive does it
really have to be to get involved in a
racing event.

LOCAL RACER
WON'T LET US FORGET SUMMER
Not only is Marcel Irnie a local, but he is
one very talented all round racer.
Marcel, who finished 3rd overall in this
year's OBCC /
717-MRTG Autocross Series, has
now set his sights on street bike racing.
He spent the last part of this year
practicing in Washington state. He has sent
us this link to his video clip.
