I don’t know for sure but the arenacross races for the triple crown series are archived so I’d imagine they will be.

If a mod could pin this, that would be cool.

They did for years but the new series decided to move things to Saturday's in order to give the pro's a better track to race on. It's easier to rebuild/shape the track for the amateurs to race on Sunday than it is to rebuild/shape it for the pro's.

I understand why they did it but in a way it sucks because we can't watch both series live at the same time.

Either way it should be another great season of racing in Canada.

The new guys are really optimist, eh? They used to run moto 1 at noon and race day would end at 6. Now they plan on running moto 1 at 1:45 and end the show at 5:20? I hope that works out

Seems really weird Round 1 isn't in BC. Don't imagine many are missing the Wastelands trip though.

It is a little weird that they're starting the series in Calgary when next week they're going to Popkum in BC. Not sure why they didn't start there instead. Would of saved a bit on the travelling by not backtracking.

Pretty friggin stupid in my books. Calgary, Popkum, Prince George, then Manitoba. Not very efficient and way more $$$ and mileage for the teams, especially the privateers wanting to do the 4 West rounds.

I'm not sure why they made that decision. Not like it was going to be wet in BC and even if it was who cares. Hopefully next year they'll start in BC like the previous years. Just makes a lot more sense. Cross the country twice and avoid some back and forth. At least there's no ferry this year.

Pettis and Facciotti went 1-1 in their classes. Most of the results should be up if you click the link in the OP.

I believe they have the archive of the livestream on the streaming site that is listed up there but it really isn't much good because you can't skip ahead. Kind of annoying considering the US races happen at about the same time and you can't really watch them both, but I would definitely like going back and watching the motos from Calgary.

With the exception of the Monster Kawasaki team and a few privateers, I think most teams and people/rigs travelling the series are coming from east of Calgary anyway. So to make a stop in Calgary on the way to Popkum, then Prince George and then out to Minnedosa.....it's the most efficient route. It's not like the US series where most teams are based on the west coast.
