Pirelli World Challenge Rounds 8 & 9: Mosport (Canadian Tire Motorsport Park)
Pirelli World Challenge will be heading north to Mosport for this weekend's event. Should be fun to watch the GT class take on this truly classic venue, not to mention the ever-exciting GTS class.

I had hoped to attend this event, alas, can't do much about kids soccer schedules. Should be a good event, finally the cars on a really classic road course.

Do they intend on having standing starts here as well?

I'll be there. My first pro event as a marshall. Really looking forward to it.
Mike Hedlund. If you see a corner worker wearing a Tilly hat and giving you the hang loose hand signal on the pace lap, that'll be me.. |

Mike, noticed the entry list has you racing in GTA. Have you been reclassified, or is it just an glitch on the list?

I know it's easy to slam the series for staying with standing starts. But after the last race saw another botched standing start, and immediately went to rolling start from yellow...how many people are still dedicated to standing starts? It seems those people might have their head in the sand ignoring what it's doing to the series....in my professional spectator opinion, anyway.

I've gotten mixed feelings from the drivers I've talked to about them. What's surprised me is that a few people have said they don't really have an opinion either way. I personally can go either way with them. Some tracks it works, some it doesn't. The thing I would like to see changed for rolling starts is the acceleration zone, it just seems WAY too close and you see a lot of guys near the back of the pack ram or nearly ram into the back of the car in front of them.

You are really going to enjoy this trip Andy. Do a track walk if you can, and do get out to see the track from different corners. A very different perspective being there, versus seeing it on TV.

Interesting change in the GTS class.
Nick Esayian is back in an Aston Martin, teamed with Cameron Racing. He started the season in a Capaldi Racing Mustang. https://twitter.com/WCRacing/status/598913740935798786 |

What ever happened to the stream? I only get a 'error loading youtube - embedding not allowed'.
Do they intentionally not stream the GT race #1 on world-challengetv ? |
