Dave mathers is my grandpa

So sad the track got sold to Indians who Recently turned it into a weed grow op…… after the summer nationals covid came and the promoters/ owners couldn’t afford it so they had to sell it…… nicest track in Canada and no racing

awesome upload, thanks a lot !

I attended every Can Am at Mosport, and some other tracks too. The best viewing areas at Mosport, esp for Can Am, have always been on the inside at the top of the entrance to corner 2 (above the marshal stand) and on the outside at the apex of corner 3. That's where races were won or lost and you got to see these great cars at their maximum acceleration, braking and cornering. These were the best corners to see when F1 ran there, too. Special mention to Mont Tremblant, also.

Bravo mon chum ! Tout un parcours!

Excellent !

Bravo Bravo, Didier est un icone du sport automobile canadien.

The ASA Cayuga races were unprecedented most likely not to be seen again. Many of the participants went onto NASCAR fame.

What an amazing talented rider 👏 Jordan szoke and inducted to Canadian motorsports hall of fame in his thirty's and is still an active racer just amazing 🎉

Cool as that Escort is, every time I hear it in this video, it really doesn't sound like its running all that well, specifically off the line.

What a gem!!!

Oh yeah. The banjo player really says "Canada" to me LOL! Seriously though this is great as you don't see many videos of ASA races from this time period, and this one is especially nice because of all the Canadian drivers joining the ASA regulars.

Dick Trickle with a moustache,eh

Love the old reel to reels

I am reasonably confident that I was there. How I loved those cars and envied the drivers!

I had the privilege of driving a very similar class of car in the UK many years ago. So many uniformed motor racing fans have no idea of stupidly fast these cars are. The Wikipedia quoted Shannonville lap record is more than 8 seconds slower by a McLaren 570S GT4.

Totally awesome to see and hear from the lovely Richard Spenard as winner. P.S., I painted the structure above the grandstands with College Pro Painters as a university student in 1985...

Really glad to be able see my local heroes at Shannonville after so many years. I knew Richard Spenard, and have done many a lap around the circuit, being from Carrying Place, Ontario. Solo1 and Pay-Per-Lap in the late 80s and early 90s...ahh...the memories! My experiences at SMP served me to very good effect to perform strongly in single-seaters as an amateur in the UK to a high standard. Sadly out of it for more than a decade as motor racing is rather expensive...

Hello @canadianmotorsports can you help me out I'm looking tonget info on a 1967 AC Shelby cobra replica Green with white stripes it held shannonville speedway record for fastest lap apparently till this day in its class built by a guy named pat and his brother it was one fast big block chevy with a Richmond 6spd car

One of many, many wonderful races at Mosport!

I remember seeing this race so, so many years ago. Totally cool cars! Seeing it at the time made me even more envious of those drivers than I already was. I did eventually have the good fortune to race single-seaters here in England in the early 2000s.

Wish we still had SuperKart racing in Ontario. I'd compete.

この頃のアトランティックはお父さんの時代とは違って日本でやってたフォーミュラ・トヨタの北米版になってましたね。

Man, I remember the purple cleanup truck.

Gilles was killed in 1982 but his brother Jaques and son Jaques both ran limited Atlantic schedule in 1992 and 1993 driving a Swift DB4.

What the last 3 minutes has to do with anything?? Are you implying that villeneuve was alive in 1993???

Bring it back to gp3r

They should also bring back trans-am races to Canada, we got quit a few great race tracks

Canada should revive Formule Atlantic, maybe based the car on the indylight, we only have formule Ford/1600 left...

Man, I only realised. This series is the predecessor to the Motorola Cup, and thus, the official starting point for the IMSA MPC timeline. Thus, the MPC race at Mosport this year would be the 30th anniversary wekkend.

"The sport is more important than anything. More important than any of the people in it. Of course I say what I think. I always have, even if it upsets people like Ecclestone and Balestre. Why should I be afraid of them? The fans aren't here to see politicians and manipulators. They're here to see Alain and Mario and Carlos and me. I am very secure in my feelings about racing. I make a lot of money from it, but one thing I can tell you for sure: if the money disappeared overnight, I would still be in racing, because I love it. The entrepreneurs would be gone." Gilles Villeneuve

He was my driving instructor at Powel Motor Sport school.

The Coolest cars ever.

The Michelin Pilot Challenge's second series.

3:44 I'm dying here 🤣

This is excellent!!!! Thank you for all these recent uploads, love seeing these cars race, closer to stock car racing than nascar and I miss all these years of cars

Thank you for posting this! These rally highlights were where my addiction started!

Was there for the race and that pre-race interview with Bill was right in front of me...Good times!

Why can't you trim off the color bars and noise?

13:35 Paul Gentilozzi is a total beauty

Thanks for the upload

This is some fine racing. F1 support race to boot. The boys were driving the wheels off of them!

Please tell me you have 1990? I have been looking for it because it was the race with the F40LM driven by Haywood and Lafitte

Oh man... Reynard vs Swift!

Was this part of imsa?

WHAT?! They shoulda kept er going. Throw some lights on this bitch

Congratulations to Allen Berg _ I've been to his driving school twice and got to meet him.

Well shot. Great to see Peter Lockhart hosting.

Great to see some old Mosport footage. It's too bad they focused on the big cars up front so much and didn't show any of the Touring class.....

What great potential Jovy Marcelo had. RIP.
