Sorry, but United Horsemen of Alberta has been trying to build in in Balzac years before CrossIron Mills started, and they still don't have the money to put a track up. I will very much believe it when I see it.
I would love to see motorsports back in Calgary, but am a bit skeptical about the scope of the project as reported. In particular, I really think that a road course is something to do as a Phase 2 or 3. Build a good oval track, and maybe a drag quarter mile, and then take it from there. A great example would be Auto Clearing Motor Speedway in Saskatoon from the oval side.
