Toronto Motorsports Park - future in jeopardy?

http://ca.autoblog.com/2011/10/12/rumoured-sale-of-toronto-motorsports-park-in-cayuga-prove-true/

That would be awful if this track went up for sale!

derp, I thought it had something to do with Alex Trebek

hmm… not 100% surprised.
racing in Ontario just isn’t as popular as anywhere else… take Quebec as the example.

it really blows for the grassroots stuff, and the pros that aren’t quite “pro” yet that are in Ontario.

I hope Mosport is in good enough hands to keep the Ontario stuff alive. if not bring it up to another level.
I wish Calabogie was closer to the GTA…

why is this upsetting?

no one is going to buy it and tear it down and build something else on the land… there are 1,000,000 plots of land that size throughout Ontario that are bare and dont require repurposing and would therefore be endlessly cheaper to develop for non-racing purposes.

the add clearly positions the venue as a racing venue with no other purpose mentioned. Clearly they are looking for people who can develop the property with its existing facilities BETTER than the existing owner / manager.

sounds like you want to solve a problem

i would really hate to see tmp go out of buisness. interesting history on the current owner and how his investors are pulling out. hopefully someone will buy the buisness and be a little more open minded to renting the facility to amateur drifters.

Oh the irony if Lee were to buy this…

lol. That’s the first thing that came to mind.

You guys weren’t the only ones thinking that lol…

Then we could end our boycott :slight_smile:

Yeah new ownership at that place would be great, it is managed poorly IMHO.

Information package requested :tup:

if they closed down both mosport and Cayuga i wonder what every one would end up doing with there high power street cars. hmmmm

is there talk of closing mosport? I thought they were pretty solid.

2 hours is better than 3. :tup:

MoSport isn’t closing. They just were purchased in June and have a decent amount of investment going on.

^yah

i dono where you got the info of it closing.

if anything its getting bigger! and better!

might be good if it was all run by the same organization… maybe
