VICTORIA DAY SPEEDFEST RACES INTO MOSPORT THIS HOLIDAY LONG WEEKEND

(BOWMANVILLE, ON – May 14, 2007) The sounds of cars, live music, fireworks and camping will fill the air at Mosport International Raceway this holiday long weekend, May 18-20, as the Victoria Day SpeedFest opens the 2007 major event season at Canada’s largest motorsports facility with an exciting line-up of road racing, rock bands and a big, colourful Saturday night fireworks show.

Camping is a popular part of the Victoria Day weekend and Mosport's 750 acres of private parkland is the perfect setting to enjoy the outdoors. General and Family camping areas are available, with full washrooms, showers and children’s playgrounds.

The ground-pounding muscle cars of the American GT Challenge (AGT), along with the GT and Touring racers of the Sundown Grand Prix, an endurance race into darkness, headline the five-race card on Mosport’s challenging 4-kilometre road course.

Two-time defending AGT series champion, Edison Lluch Sr., of Puerto Rico is looking for his first Mosport victory in four years of trying. He’s expected to face stiff opposition from Dundas, ON racer Charlie Webster who calls Mosport his home track. The AGT’s powerful V-8 Corvettes and Mustangs are reminiscent of the now-defunct Trans-Am Series. They will run a twin feature on Sunday.

Saturday’s feature is the three-hour Sundown Grand Prix endurance race into darkness, with GT and Touring cars, like Acuras, BMWs and Porsches battling for overall and class wins, plus entries from the U.S.-based Miata Endurance Championship and the Spec Racer Challenge.

The race schedule also includes the Cup Lites Series (three-quarter scale stock cars that are slick looking and have the same power-to-weight ratio as a full size Grand National car), the F1200 open-wheel series, plus a sprint race for the Spec Racers.

The off-track activities at this year’s Victoria SpeedFest feature a six-band schedule at Mosport’s infield Concert Stage. Saturday’s line-up includes Marshall Dane, JF Coley and Re-Wind, while Sunday’s acts are Chisai Jackson, Top Johnny and Virtue & Vice. The shows start at 5 pm each day.

Mosport’s Victoria Day weekend fireworks show is scheduled for Saturday night just after darkness. The Motorsport Expo & Marketplace, located in the race team paddock, features an interesting array of racing souvenirs and displays.

Admission to the Expo and the paddock area is included with your admission ticket.
