CASC-OR/CTMP Celebration of Motorsport at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park – September 30 to October 2 Race Report

The Enhanced Performance, STANMECH Technologies, Good Cars Only, Gabo Solutions, Melanoma Canada #77 Formula Mazda Team had a challenging race weekend at the 2022 CASC-OR/CTMP Celebration Of Motorsport Races held at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park. We were entered in the Formula Libre race group. There were a total of 18 cars in our race group including, Radicals, a Formula Renault, several Formula 4’s, historical Formula Fords and F1200’s. The weather was sunny and beautiful all three days – temperatures ranged from 15 to 25° C during the event.

Over the course of Friday, Saturday and Sunday, we were on track a total of 8 times; 4 on-track practices during the Friday test day, followed by combined practice, qualifying and Race 1 on Saturday, Race 2 on Sunday – we missed Race 3 due to a shunt during Race 2, more on that later.

Our best lap for the test day was a 1:23.300 flat on tires that were left over from the BEMC Late Summer Trophy Race weekend at CTMP two weeks before.
​
Saturday morning, the weather was perfect – about 20°C and a clear sky. We scuffed in our race tires during our last session of the Friday test day.  We set a reasonable P3 practice time of 1:26.421 on a very cool track. During qualifying, we set a blistering pace of 1:23.106 to grab pole for Race 1.  During Race 1, we had a tremendous start and led the entire 15 laps, and set a best lap time of 1:22.891.  That evening, we sat down with the race team to an amazing trackside meal.
​The weather on Sunday cool and the track was cold – the track was slick for at the beginning of the day – and before our race at 9:35 am. For Race 2, we started on pole because of our finish in Race 1. We had a great start, but spun going into corner 5a – it was in the shade and the track had zero grip. This spin resulting in dropping us back to 17th spot. We steadily made our way back through the pack over the next 9 laps to 5th position. During that lap, we thought we had a tire going down has the race car was feeling strange in some of the corners. As we approached corner 8 at about 160 kph, we realized that we had no front grip as the race car headed towards the outside wall of corner 8. We managed to slow the car down to about enough that the impact was moderate, but unfortunately our race weekend was over as the front-end damage was too great. We realized after talking to a number of drivers that the track had been oiled down by a race car leaking oil in corner 8.  What a shame, as we were on our way to making a great comeback after our spin. 
Here is a link to the photo gallery from the Celebration Race weekend.
​And a big thank you to Bill and Shirley Vallis of Vallis Motor Sport for their trackside support during the CASC-OR/CTMP Celebration of Motorsport and to Canadian Tire Motorsports Park for hosting such a fantastic, safe event!!

The weather was quite nice Friday and Saturday with temperatures ranging from 20 to 25° C, Sunday was damp with an intermediate track.

Over the course of Friday, Saturday and Sunday, we were on track a total of 9 times; 4 on-track practices during the Friday test day, followed by practice, qualifying and Race 1 on Saturday, Race 2 & 3 on Sunday.

Our best lap for the test day was a 1:23 flat on old Goodyear's from the CASC-OR Summer Classic Race weekend at Calabogie Motorsports Park.

Saturday morning, the weather was perfect – about 20°C and a clear sky. We scuffed in our race tires during practice. We set a reasonable qualifying time of 1:24.741 – P1 in our class. During Race 1, we had a good battle with Jim Morton in his F4 Gamma – we finished P1 in our class and P4 in our race group with a best lap time of 1:23.747

The weather on Sunday was overcast at about 20°C.  We had a great start at the beginning of Race 2 unfortunately, we picked up a puncture as a result of being too aggressive over the rumble strips on the apex of corner 5B. So we retired to the pits with 2 laps to go – we still managed to finish in P6  and P1 in our class with a best lap time of 1.24.729. Here is the link to our You Tube video https://www.youtube.com/shorts/8jJJU9nm2vg regarding our puncture.
​
We started Race 3 in P2 on a damp, intermediate track and stayed on Jeremy Hills gear box for the majority of the race finishing in P1 in our class and P2 in our race group with a best lap time of 1:30.345.

Here is a list of the cars in our race group:
Picture
In the first practice session qualifying session, we placed 11th of 25 race cars, 1st in our 9F4 class.

For Race 1, on the afternoon of the 10th of September, our race Group 9 included 24 amazing high powered open wheel race cars, including Lola’s, Elan’s, Ralt’s, Swift’s and a number of F5000’s.  The weather was perfect for racing, clear and mild, about 20 Celsius. We started in 11th and finished in 14th position, 1st in our class, with a best lap time of 1:58.773, our best lap time of the weekend!! Here is the YouTube video link to our first race https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MabBBohvzfM.

​In Race 2, on the 11th of September, weather was abysmal with a ongoing down pour during out entire race. Sadly, only 5 race cars participated in the event – we finished 1st in our class and 2nd in our race group, with an acceptable full wet best lap time of 2:25.268 – here is a YouTube video link of our very wet 2nd race https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eeQxRHMtY4k!!! An eventful race weekend and our #77 Formula Mazda performed flawlessly.
