WOW - that is SO COOL! Thanks so much for posting the photos and the starting grid. I was first there in the 70's for the Can-Am races, then the first Indy car races - those guys were insane!

Fabulous pictures. Takes me back. I was there in the late 60's and into the 70's. No money in the 60's but I fit comfortably into my brother in law's trunk in his 57 Chevy.

Thanks for posting.

Loving it!! what I love so much about running at Mosport is the history of the place. So many of the greatest drivers in the world have run there too. And crashed, so I won't feel so bad........
