FIA Formula E coming to Vancouver in 2016 - maybe.
Sep 11th, 2014 at 8:20pm
 
If you had been at the meeting last night, you would have heard Mike Kaerne talk about the meetings he's had with various people regarding bringing a Formula E race to Vancouver in 2016. The inaugural Formula E race is in Beijing this weekend (www.fiaformulae.com) and despite the boring looking course, should be a very interesting race.

Some of the news coverage on this includes:
vancitybuzz.com
metronews.ca - with quotes from Ray Stec
npavancouver.ca - includes the council motion

There is also talk of a celebrity support race using electric vehicles, and an electric kart race.

This is an opportunity for the SCCBC to again get out in front of Vancouver and promote our club and motor sport to Vancouver and the world. Kudos to all involved so far to get the ball rolling and give us a shot at another world class event.
