Can-Am Challenge BMW CCA Club Race at CTMP
Canadian Tire Motorsport Park - GPAbout this event
This year we’re continuing the cross-border competition with the BMW Club Racing Canadian American Challenge. The Can-Am Challenge is a homage to the historic Can-Am series that spanned the Canadian and United States border from 1966-1974. Our Can-Am Challenge is being run at three historic tracks, the Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, August 4-6, Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course, August 18-20, and Watkins Glen International September 22-24. A team-based points scheme will determine the winner and the glorious Can-Am trophy will be presented for the country that wins the challenge! This trophy will again be “up for grabs” in the 2023 season and beyond.
The Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, opened in 1961 is a former Formula One Canadian Grand Prix venue and today hosts the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship. It’s an extraordinarily challenging, 2.5 mile, 10-turn rollercoaster ride!
This year the schedule will include:
- Two practice, qualify and a 60 minute enduro on Friday
- Warm-up, qualify and two sprint races on Saturday (the feature race will be the second race)
- Warm-up and a sprint race on Sunday
We'll be all wrapped up by 2:00pm on Sunday.
3 - Day Registration is $650 CAD (includes HST). That's approximately USD $500. Sign up soon! Your credit card will only be charged on the weekend of the event, and only if you attend and turn a wheel on the track, so there is no risk.
