[Hobbs, John JU0]

Rumour has it that my car was raced in Davidson. It is a 1950 XK 120
roadster (Jaguar). 

Is there any way I could look into this?

Ron,
By following the emails that Bob Burton forwarded to me, it appears there is
some interest about the old racing days in Saskatchewan, including Davidson.
I was never fortunate enough to do any of my racing in Saskatchewan, but as
a member of the Regina Sports Car Club, I have access to the archives, and
have collected a great deal of Saskatchewan Motorsport History. My records
show the first ever race on a road course was in Davidson in 1957. That
would make 2007 the 50th anniversary of road racing in Sask. I have been to
the present Davidson track remains, and there is still one semi-active
runway in use by a crop duster. It could be tidied up and an autocross or
gymkhana could be held. Perhaps a collaboration of the current Saskatchewan
clubs could organize an event in Davidson. I am sure the community would
welcome a parade, car show type of event, with a low key fun competitive
event at the old track. Likely the Jagnuts, Regina Sports Car Club,
Saskatoon Sports Car Club, Queen City Motorsports Association, and other
clubs I don't know might find the idea intriguing and offer their services,
and some manpower. Give it some thought and share with your membership and
see if there is much interest. I will do the same here with a few of the
clubs I know. More photos attached just for fun.
