Well, it appears that the city council voted to restore the IRL Edmonton race for next year. To make up the money, the city said Friday it will use $1 million from private partners, while the remaining $2 million will come from new parking revenue.

The parking revenue will be generated by turning Runway 1634 into a parking lot when it’s not being used for the Indy.

Parking on that stretch is expected to bring in around $450,000 per year.

This is good news.

i'm glad the city council doesn't do my taxes. those figures don't add up. glad the race is back on though. :)
 
So, has anyone heard if this is still on??? Have not heard anything about in over a month. Still not on the IRL website. I guess if it does happen they are not going to have any support classes(except maybe Indy Lights), getting too late for that. Canadian Tire Series put their schedule out a while ago and i think they scheduled a race in BC against Edmonton... I guess they could revise their schedule too...
 
It is back on. Good news. Still have not heard about the finale in Vegas.
