Info for those of you that are Racing or Staying in Portage:

 

How to navigate through Portage? 
It’s easy, Main Street is Saskatchewan Ave and it runs East/West, it is also the same road that takes you on and off the high from our 1st exits entering or leaving on either the West or East Side.

 

Need Car Parts?

Napa Auto Parts open Saturday until 5pm. Located on west end of town on North side just past Walmart turn. 204-857-3377
Canadian Tire: Located on West End of town on South side past Canad. Open Saturday 6pm, Sunday 5pm, (204) 857-3408
Fehr Auto: located on far west end on South side past Can Tire: Saturday until noon (204) 239-1555
