The nicest midi track in North America: Stratotech Park

Jun 11, 2007, By Michael Lenz, Copyright 2006, MiniGPX

While attending the second round of the Canadian Mini Road Racing National series we recently had the pleasure to visit one of, if not the nicest midi sized road race track in North America. Situated 15 minutes North of Edmonton, Stratotech Park is a first class facility measuring 1.2 miles in length. It isn't often that the facilities of tracks used by mini road racers are the same caliber as a place like Barber or the recently updated Laguna, but Stratotech Park is in the same league.

The surface is perfect, the corners are wide, the layout and combination of corners challenging while not torture on your body. If you can string corners together and keep the throttle open you will do well at Stratotech Park.

If you have the chance to attend an event at the track you won't be disappointed. Just be sure to bring gearing, the track is fast and bikes will top out easily with traditional mini track gearing.
