“We want to thank Panoz Motor Sports Group for making Mosport what it is today – a world-class racing venue that is host to some of North America’s best road-racing series and a place of inspiration for generations of racers in Canada,” said Boughton, on behalf of Canadian Motorsport Ventures, Ltd. “We are excited to pour our racing passion and business expertise into Mosport and look forward to working together with local government and tourism authorities to take this historic race facility to the next level in delivering the best excitement and entertainment motor racing has to offer.”
The new leadership team brings a renewed focus, fresh thinking, and a strong vision on how to maximize the potential of Mosport. Over the next 18 months, plans include the construction of a new events and meeting facility, the restoration of current buildings and spectator facilities, and track improvements to deliver the high-caliber racing experience that drivers and fans want. The company’s three key players will utilize their unique areas of strength and knowledge to guide Mosport into the future:
Al Boughton – President and Managing Partner of Trailcon Leasing and a long-time classic car enthusiast and restorer with a passion for racing.

So what is the entire wish list?
Off the top of my head;
A proper repaving of the track
Improved drainage (lets get rid of the 5B underwater spring)
Up to date washrooms / changerooms
New trackwide communications
Better access / spectator areas
Updated or replaced pits / tower / restaurant
Other thoughts?

It's been 7 years since I've been on Mosport....god how I miss that track
I just thought the facilities were sh*t. Build a new, world class building...improve the spectator viewing areas (access/amenities) and clean up some of the track. Other than that, don't mess with it.

Great news.....the Don didn't want to spend another penny on the place, and it looks like he may be selling off Road Atlanta as well. Hopefully the money man in the deal is serious about upgrading the facilities, and doesn't just have visions of condos in the future.
