The Canadian Motorsport Hall of Fame (CMHF) is pleased to announce details pertaining to the 7th CELEBRATION of SPEED, which will take place at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park on Monday August 7, 2017.

Enthusiasts and the general public, 10 years of age and older, are welcome to join and are encouraged to go along for a “ride of their life” in some very exciting cars with experienced and well-known professional race car drivers.

Celebration of Speed: Canadian Motorsport Hall of Fame Track Day
In addition to the wide variety of exciting Ride-Along cars, the Ron Fellows Experience will return again this year after last year’s sell-out success. Thirty lucky riders will have the opportunity to purchase tickets for a thrilling three lap session around the Grand Prix track in a Chevrolet Corvette Z06 driven by Canadian Motorsport Hall of Fame inductee Ron Fellows, one of Canada’s most successful race car drivers. Ron is a co-owner of Canadian Tire Motorsport Park and has won in numerous series, including NASCAR, the 24 Hours of Le Mans, and the 24 Hours of Daytona.

The event will also provide the opportunity for 50 track day participants to enjoy a full day of high-speed action, driving their own cars on the legendary “Mosport” Grand Prix circuit.

All proceeds from the 2017 CELEBRATION of SPEED will help support the Canadian Motorsport Heritage Foundation, which operates the Canadian Motorsport Hall of Fame (CMHF.ca). Founded in 1993, CMHF is a charitable organization, which works tirelessly to preserve and promote Canada’s rich motorsport history and heritage.
