QUEEN CITY MOTORSPORTS PARK CONCEPT PLAN REVEAL

Good morning Regina!!

First off, our sincerest thoughts and prayers go out to everyone affected by the tragic events that have happened in Moncton over the past 24 hours. It is a situation that no one ever wants to imagine, and for the RCMP Officers to continue to go back to their jobs after the tragedies of their fellow officers, that shows just how courageous and brave each and every one of them are.

Now, onto the grand unveiling!!! 

If you've been watching our Facebook page, or a select couple of Forums in the past 24 hours, you would have had the opportunity to see our Concept Plan. If you haven't "Liked" our Facebook page yet, we strongly encourage you to do so, as you will be able to get exclusive updates on the progress of this project, along with other exciting announcements coming up during the 2014 Summer of Thunder!

This Motorsports Entertainment Complex will be a multi-phase project, with the initial phase focused around a NHRA and/or IHRA Sanctioned Quarter Mile Drag Strip. 

This is something that exists in most other major centres over North America, and unfortunately, the Queen City has missed out on this tremendous marketing and tourism opportunity for far too long. Locally, there are cities like Swift Current, Yorkton and Estevan that sucessfully host drag races at their local airports, and yet, the Queen City has missed out on even a temporary facility, for decades. This is something that we can no longer overlook, and thus why it is the first phase of this project.

There are tremendous social and economic impacts of a drag strip for our community, including offering the youth, and young-at-heart, a safe place to race their cars. This is a right of passage for many teenagers, and it is simply human nature for us to want to test out how fast our cars (and trucks) can go! The Regina Police Service recently emphasized how serious of a problem Street Racing still is in the Queen City, and that is yet another example of why this facility is a necessity, and not just a desire. 

Long term, the overall complex will provide an Indoor Entertainment Facility which will enable the Regina region to attract stadium events 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Unlike "Mosaic 2.0", it will not just be "roof ready", and it will not just be focused around a sporting event that is used only a handful of times a year. Best of all, the facility will be usable year round, so we will be able to attract events and concerts that otherwise pass over Saskatchewan due to a number of reasons that promoters simply don't want to take the risk of.

Have a great Regina day everyone!!

Announcement Coming This Week!

Hello everyone!

Thank you for following our page, and we are very excited to announce that we plan to unveil the concept plans for the Queen City Motorsports Park this week. 

STAY TUNED TO THIS PAGE FOR UPDATES!

For anyone that has ever wondered why we feel so strongly in making this project a reality, we invite you to watch the below video clip of the YIELD program from CBC National News.

SUMMER OF THUNDER 2014

Happy May Long Weekend everyone!!

We are so excited for what is to be known as the SUMMER OF THUNDER in Saskatchewan! There are so many great, high-horsepower events happening around Saskatchewan, and we are proud to show our support where we can, and are working feverishly on making the Queen City Cruise In a reality once again for 2014.

By summer's end, not only will you be treated to the sweet sounds of Hot Rods, Race Cars and Hot Tunes, you are also going to be presented with the announcement that you have been waiting decades for!!

That's right, ladies and gentlemen, only two short years ago, our president, Chad A. Novak, CMA, promised you a world-class MOTORSPORTS FACILITY to be built in the Regina area. Against all odds, and fighting against some pretty intense political backlash, we are proud to announce that by the end of this summer, you will be seeing the fruits of these efforts. We will be making formal announcements for the development of the new QUEEN CITY MOTORSPORTS PARK. We will not provide many details right now, but we can tell you that the facility will be a multi-stage project, with the First Phase being the construction of a quarter mile NHRA and/or IHRA Sanctioned Drag Strip. After that, there are a number of phases with short and long term projects planned to eventually expand the project into a full World-Class Motorsports Facility.

The full project will encompass an entirely new neighbourhood in the Regina area, and will feature a very large indoor entertainment venue for Stadium-quality events like Stadium Concerts, Monster Trucks, Soccer, Baseball and Trade Shows, to name but only a few of the exciting entertainment options available. Needless to say, this new facility will certainly put the new Stadium project into political limbo, as it stands to trump it on every level possible. It will be something brand new to the Regina area, offer world-class entertainment on a large scale, and will be funded primarily by private and corporate funds. Ideally, we would like to have this facility assisted with Government Funding from many levels, but we are prepared to put the project together with absolutely zero government assistance if necessary.

COMING VERY SOON!!!
