My Fb on track at Mosport

Post by jim_chung »

Mosport is Canada's oldest continuously operating track about an hour outside of Toronto. Home of legendary Can-Am battles, Fangio has raced there and so has Moss in 1961. We were there to watch the annual IMSA race with which Mazda and the Fb have a long history and also to celebrate Mazda's 50th year in Canada. I've taken the Fb on this track before but never had a photographer available to document this special moment.

The turbo definitely helps when keeping up with modern cars on the track but I have to watch the substandard oem brakes! Don't remember if I've posted this image of the car before but it does show well.

Nice pics. Your interior shot looks much like a gentlemans lounge. h: All that leather is mighty impressive.

I should mention that Bruce Mclaren, Chris Amon and Denny Hulme all raced at Mosport.
