Spoke to Jameer this afternoon and got the following details. After a meeting with the Minister of Sport at 12:30pm, a signed agreement was made between the Ministry and TTASA where by racing is set to resume officially at Camden Airstrip from Sunday 28th October, 2007 as a TTASA Drag Racing Event. This facility will be available for a period of one year. The strip is rumoured to be around 50ft wide x 2000ft long, slightly short of NHRA regulations for quarter mile racing.
Additionally 65 acres in Waterloo will be used for the development of the new home for Motorsport in T&T with works to begin immediately.

From Trinituner-GOV'T GRANTS MOTORSPORT FACILITES TO TTASA
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pics from this morning. Went and spoke to the guard.
I cannot See that this facility will be used for drag racing by the 28th Oct.
Reason:
1. The Camden airstrip is still in use by Briko Air Services. They use the strip to train pilots. Also, the airstrip is designated for emergency aircraft landing.
2. Safety. Where there is Aircraft-fuel, it is dangerous for motor-racing to take place. For instance, if a car crashes into one of the fuel tanks. Plainly stating, Aircraft and Drag racing DO NOT MIX.
| cheese pie wrote: | SUZUKI SPORTsman and I took ah drive down there this morning, from what a security guard told me is that the air stip is used to train pilots on the use of small air craft or crop dusters which still use the run way ,
the militray does training exercises here ( this is what the guard said eah) its also used by national helicopter services to make emergency landings. this has happened as receently as 2 months ago
its not an old air strip in any way , its used , alot actually and i honestly dont see that event happening on the 28th
now this is what a guard told me , and what i saw , i dont know in the meeting if there were stakeholders from briko , national helicopter services and air ports authority ect at the meeting or who met with the minister
I dont mean to throw cold water but if the stake holders were not involved i dunno how they going to have an event on the 28th |

If they get to use the airstrip with all safety measures in place and etc, well good for them,.......... but lets wait and see what happens with TTASA, Min. of Sport and Briko Air Services and others....
