PeteL Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I guess it's time to discuss the massive elephant in the room. I would assume by all of the cancelations of events world wide that the season will be postponed at the minimum. I would assume this applies to the HPDE also. Can someone please confirm. Stay safe and healthy everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donrolandofurioso Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 (edited) Hi Steve The HPDE has been cancelled - at least for now. All participants have been notified and refunded their entrance fee. We hope that it can held at some date later in the year. There is a great summary in the new Aficionado.

donrolandofurioso Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 As it stands right now, we are not allowed to do any racing activities....as a matter of fact, GMP is actually locked down right now. We are hoping that Phase II brings some relieve of the rules, and we can start having some cars on the track again. Whether that means that instructors can sit beside students in the same car remains to be seen.... Realistically, there is probably no HPDE until sometime in fall... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matter Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Could we work to establish protocols for a limited open track day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spencer Green Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Soon the world will see the truth, people will start to wake up. It's happening now and it's only a matter of time. The old ways are coming to an end. Then I hope we too can get back to "normal" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Klassen Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 @ Matter: I could see protocol topics such as: Registration: online only have all paperwork submitted via email 2 days prior to the event Meetings (marshals, drivers, etc): take place outdoors maintaining social distancing use of megaphone / mic / amp / speaker handouts of track layout with basic rules du jour Ride - alongs: only house hold members Washroom sanitation: YES - LOTS (frequent sanitizing) and/or installation of hands free: hand sanitizers wash faucets paper towel dispensers (definitely NOT air blowing hand driers) toilets & urinal flushing Instruction, drivers and instructors in contact via cell phones (doubtful of efficacy): all drivers have hands free earpiece / microphone with cell phone instructors in a location where the entire track is visible or following in a chase vehicle marshals enforce social distancing measures I'm sure there are more.

Matter Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 (edited) Thanks @David Klassen, I'm hoping we can at least get a smaller event in that manner. Identify what doesn't work, attempt to rectify. Some possible restrictions: No out of province visitors no drivers without a race licence social aspect: Gatherings of more than 10 people is still not permitted. https://manitoba.ca/covid19/soe.html But maybe more from June? So perhaps we can plan what is possible when that restriction is lifted and do so in a safe manner. Edited May 20, 2020 by Matter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sox and martin Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 We were part of a motocross practice at Grunthal over the weekend. 70 participants, no spectators, minors with parents. All pit stall clearly marked for distance. All forms done on line and fees paid online. All were cautioned to practice social distancing. Those who did not comply, would be asked to leave. They were also told that the possibility existed of a visit to confirm the rules were being followed. I cannot say wether or not that happened. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have super low Co-vid situation here in Saskatchewan. If you do this why would I join the WSCC for this season? Just to be a member? I could see keeping the US guys and Ontario out as they have issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Eh. Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 We would not ban anyone because of their home location. It has nothing to do with who is from where. We welcome all comers, the more definitely the merrier. It is ... #1.) The Federal and Provincial government rules/guidelines that we are bound to abide by #2.) The local municipality that actually owns the land controls our entry to the facility. We are not even allow on site to do any maintenance yet. All of our scheduled race meets are being planned tentatively for now, according to legislation and state of emergency powers the government has enacted. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob_W Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 One of the Mb rules still in place states that anyone from out of province must self isolate for 14 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Eh. Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Actually the rule is "anyone coming into the province from any location outside the province must self isolate for 14 days". Exemptions are commercial traffic and cottagers who own or lease property outside the province. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KMiller Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Funny, BC , Alberta and Saskatchewan only require self isolation for international travel, not out of province. You guys sure? Just had a friend move to BC and started working right away, no isolation needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Eh. Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 KMiller Particularly this section ... The chief provincial public health officer issued new public health orders on April 30, 2020. The new orders will extend the mandate that anyone entering Manitoba, regardless of whether it was from another country or another province must self-isolate for 14 days until such time as the orders are terminated by the chief provincial public health officer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KMiller Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 I guess I will have to seriously consider racing in Alberta then if things don't change. I have a friend on BCSCC board of directors has invited me out there to run as well as they are "hoping" to be going late July with lapping starting in a few weeks, as well possible events at Area 27. Lots of FC cars as they have added 3-4 more making possible grids close to 30. I really and truly hope things change for Gimli as its a long haul to the west to either track for me. It would really suck not to race back with you as I consider this to be my home track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcorrie Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 The points have been address well and I won’t beat a dead horse, but I will say that when I go to work every single day, first thing I do is put on a face mask, sanitize my work area and fill out a 5 question Covid-19 Status Reporting form, question #1 asks “if I or someone in my household in the last 14 days has been in contact with someone who has travelled outside Manitoba”. its just how it is right now - nothing more, nothing less. Keith - you’re always welcome here, you always have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 There are some embarrassing posts in this thread. Lets not get ahead of ourselves. We are limited to gatherings of 50 and that will not permit us to hold a competition event. Please stop speculating who will and will not be permitted to attend. I’m looking forward to our first competition event of 2020 having no provincial travel restrictions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to be clear, not trying to piss off anyone or push the issue, only trying to get people thinking on how we can SAFELY get things rolling, that's it, plain and simple. I also understand the governments roll in all this. I am not a doctor so I have no patients. (patience). And racing is an essential service, other wise might just come unglued sitting here doing nothing. LOL And yes I sent my membership in to you guys last night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary_T Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 (edited) Phase 3, June 21, 2020: Anyone entering Manitoba from designated western Canadian jurisdictions (British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and the Yukon, Northwest and Nunavut territories) or Northwestern Ontario (defined as west of Terrace Bay) is not required to self-isolate for 14 days if they are asymptomatic and have no known exposure to COVID-19. https://www.gov.mb.ca/covid19/restoring/phase-three.html Edited June 22, 2020 by Gary_T 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
