2012 Comes to an End

The Gow Family would like to thank all of you for your help in making 2012 a great year. It takes a lot of work to make Capital City Speedway work and we could not have kept it open without your support. Support for the track comes from a number of different people. Volunteers, advertisers, staff, drivers, car owners, friends, family and from our great fans. We need all of you to keep things going at Capital City Speedway and I hope we can count on your support to keep things going in 2013.

In 2012, we continued to make progress on a number of different areas and a number of different venues. This year we focused on the re-opening of the Drag Strip and by the support we saw over the year, we can expect even bigger car counts and support for Drag Racing at CCS in 2013. We saw an increase in our spectator count for  Stock Car racing, compared to 2011, and we saw some growth for Drifting. Hopefully, that progress will continue, and 2013 will be our best year yet. It has been a bumpy ride over the last two years, but dare I say that the road will be a smoother one moving forward? One thing I do know is that if we see continued support from our CCS supporters and grow it some more for next year, we are bound to be successful. What that means to all of us is that CCS will remain open and continue to offer a variety of motor sports activities to all.

In 2013, our energies will be directed on making the Drag Strip even better. We have a number of initiatives planned to make it more professional and functional. We are currently working with the City on some zoning issues that need to be cleaned up and once those are done, we hope to re-open the Stittsville Flea Market at CCS. We have a long way to go yet to make that happen, but we are trying hard to bring another venue to our facility. Our goal  is to continue adding days, or nights where we have something going on. This is the only way we can continue to operate this facility and keep it profitable. If we can do that, then it bodes well for all of us.

Thank you for being a part of Capital City Speedway, and we hope to see you in 2013.
