Canada\u2019s famed Mosport Park, now being called Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, will host an all-new \u201cCelebration of Speed\u201d this June 27-29. Called Glory Days, the event will offer attendees the spirit and style of England\u2019s Goodwood Festival of Speed, but in a Canadian setting, with the intention of revitalizing the emotional link to motor sport that many of those fans may have lost. To do this, Glory Days will feature cars from the time when many of today\u2019s race fans first made their connections to the sport.<\/p>\n

\u201cBack in the \u201950s, \u201960s and \u201970s it was much easier to enjoy the full experience of driving and riding,\u201d offered Glory Days organizer Bob DeShane. \u201cThe roads were less crowded and it was easier to take the steps necessary to get involved in clubs and competition, get on track, if you wanted to. Over the years things have just gotten so expensive, so regulated, so structured that today, many enthusiasts and potential enthusiasts find it terribly difficult to get involved\u2014or even stay interested.\u201d<\/p>\n
