Liz, my feeling that street cirucits are Mickey Mouse is due to the fact that they produce processional racing like some other major series we all know about. Besides that, they don't have the same allure that permanent circuits do like Laguna Seca, Road America or Watkins Glen. Soon as the race is over, it becomes just an ordinary public road.

To me, these street circuits should be temporary until a permanent facility can be built. But it appears to now be the El Cheapo way of having to build a real circuit. So, this is what the drivers get, a bumpy uneven race circuit that provides little passing opportunities. For the life of me, I cannot understand why Toronto cannot step up to the plate and build a nice circuit or upgrade Mosport Park.
