If you think back to why you love racing, it probably starts with a place like Shanty Bay. A family friendly go-kart track right off Hwy 400 north of Barrie. They have an oval kiddie track, single karts and two person karts (for parents and little ones).
Karting isn’t supposed to be about cheating to win at Nationals (see this article on CKN). It’s supposed to be fun.
And for rookie racer Michelle Demaras, strapping into a kart was a real thrill. Maybe the Demaras Auto Racing Team is about to have a new driver in Micro-Max next season.
Holy crap I just found gold. I don’t know if you know but this is all abandoned now and destroyed. Been like that since 2019.
Only recently saw something on social media about Shanty Bay being closed.

Didn’t know its destroyed. Thats very sad. It was such a fun stop on they drive up north.
