They have a great love and passion for racing, so that is going to bring a new energy around the track this year. The promoters are doing a fantastic job getting ready for the race that is coming up in June. They have a lot of new things planned for the fans, so it will be a great event for families to come out and enjoy some entertainment on and off the track in downtown Toronto. '' ''This race and town has always been one that teams and drivers enjoy coming to each year. For the fans, it is a great city, there are fast cars on track, good looking women and plenty of beer - you can't ask for anything more. While I was there, I could feel the excitement generating in the media and the public for this race. We can't control the weather, but if it is good then I think that there should be a good crowd and that the event will be a big success."
