Very cool. Thanks for sharing.

To many of us Americans who have been active in racing for many years, we simply don't hear about the various strong Canadian series that go on not that far from us, primarily in Quebec it seems.

the driver window is down... it was the Firehawk endurance serie... maybe the rule change? I think that the passenger window should be down too.

Best post I've seen all day Sounds like you've got an awesome father. Mine has also done a fair bit of racing, but not to the level of yours. He raced his old 85 crx si, ran an rx7 with Nasa's Pro7 series, and currently is working on building a rally rx7 with my bro and I I love seeing motorsports passed onto new generations

True. It's cool stuff. I've seen bits and pieces for 1st gen tegs. They were tasteful then, too.

Im sure that this is not the same car loll cuz the car is a total lost ... he was at Mosport and he scrapped the car during the qualification session, the lap after he did the track record in his categorie He told to the crew chief that he was sure that he wasnt fast enough in one of the corner ... too bad he totally scrapped the car. It tooked 5 hours to get the car out of the woods loll Hopefully he was ok.
