TCM Weekly Agenda
TCM Weekend Agenda – “Practice Weekend”
***Update – Speedway 660 has canceled the Riverview Ford Lincoln Season Opener due to wet grounds and the forecast for more rain on Sunday.
The Weekend Agenda returns as a standalone feature on TimsCorner.ca for the 2017 season.
If you are new to the Weekend Agenda, it is the easiest place to find which race tracks in Atlantic Canada are racing and what is on the card for the event. If a track is racing, you’ll see the track name and location in green and if a track is not running an event on a weekend, their name and location will be red. The line proceeding will display the divisions running on the weekend and a start time, or a date of when the next event is at the track.
You can check out the TCM Weekend Agenda on a weekly basis on TimsCorner.ca throughout the season on Wednesday evenings – but with our full Master Schedule making its debut later this week, we have the Weekend Agenda for you a day early to celebrate the new year!

A lot has changed since the last weekend of 2016. The last track to be active in 2016, Cape Breton Miners Memorial Speedway, has shut its doors. Speedway 660 will look to be the first track to fire up in 2017 after rain has plagued opening weekend for years, with three other race tracks hosting open practices in advance of their first race.
