MOTORCYCLE ROAD RACING @ MISSION RACEWAY PARK THIS WEEKEND!!! The Westwood Motorcycle Racing Club www.wmrc.ca started in 1959 and enjoyed many years of very competitive racing at the Westwood Circuit in Port Coquitlam, where the club derived its name. Mission Raceway Park is now the WMRC’s home track and 2005 will be our fourth season racing here. The Club has enjoyed very competitive racing with the likes of ex Canadian Superbike Champions like Steve Crevier and Steve Dick.
