VARAC Welcomes Sportscar Fans & Car Clubs

The 2010 VARAC Vintage Racing Festival is all about the glory years of grassroots motorsports and we extend a special invitation to sportscar and hot-rod clubs to join us in recreating the euphoric atmosphere of a weekend at the track during those great times!

Come and join us as we roll out our 32nd Annual Vintage Racing Festival at the world-renowned Mosport International Raceway June 18, 19, 20 of 2010. This technically demanding, very fast 2.459 mile track is just one hour northeast of Toronto.

This weekend offers more value and more fun than any cruise or car show can ever deliver. Come on out and take part in something that you’ll ever forget. Here’s a line-up of what will greet you:
