Default TREMBLANT TRACK CAR RENTAL?

Biz takes me to Montreal next month. Anyone know of any track cars available for rental in the Montreal / Ottawa area? Thanks!

Check with Rennsport. It's the local PCA chapter. Someone may have a car for rent, or know someone with one.

The chief instructor is Bob Rouleau, who will certainly know who if this is possible.
Good luck, I was at Tremblant last weekend for a awesome DE.

Thanks! My first email was to Bob (he is registrar for the September DE...) I hope to experience an "awesome DE" for myself.....

Well, you won't be flogging a Prius at a Rennsport event . There is an Audi Club event at the end of the month at Tremblant if you want to drive something other then a Porsche. Group Eurosport might rent you a car for a DE without the track support. Give Michel a call and ask. Speedmerchants is based at Calabogie and has a few Cup cars in their inventory and possibly other less track oriented vehicles.

Out of about 130 cars at the last Rennsport event this past weekend 40 were of the GT3 variety. 40!

Got a note back from Bob - indeed, he indicated that Rennsport has high standards - only P-cars need apply. Speedmerchants came highly recommended, but do not have a car available on my potential track date. Will chase Eurosport next....

Calabogie Motorsports Park, just outside Ottawa has a fleet of track prepped Mustangs that they rent for their CMP Lapping days

Email track manager: Jane Blinn She can hook you up! They even have evening lapping!!
