This year, 25 new cars have registered to race at the track, and Norm Nadin, the track's developer, estimates more than 150 cars will be racing this season.

THUNDER BAY—With the racing season just over a month away, work continues at the Thunder City Speedway to complete a full-service racetrack facility.

Nadin travelled to race conferences in Minneapolis and Arizona and said people "know about Thunder City." With increasing numbers of U.S. racers visiting the track, he says one of the challenges is the commute. Some racers seek accommodation in local hotels but most of them opt to camp on-site in recreational vehicles at the race track.

The expansion of the parking lot is an ongoing project that continues to evolve. Nadin explained that they currently have people parking out on the highway but want to try to move away from that.
