50/50 Draw
Automotive journalist Jim Kenzie was on the Mainstage for the awards ceremony. The former Chief Auto Reviewer for the Toronto Star "Wheels" section and star of "Kenzie's Korner" on TSN's Motoring show, joined us not only out on the judging floor but shared his witty banter while handing out the awards to all the lucky winners.
Joining Jim on stage and also as part of the Judging panel, was Brian Makse, championship-winning racing driver, auto writer, presenter, and radio host for media outlets around the globe. His automotive stories and You Tube videos are filtered through the lens of a highly experienced driver, giving his readers and viewers a unique perspective on the world of automobiles.
Thank you to our major sponsors
We welcomed Oro Station (Hot August Nights at Webers) on site this year, as they sponsored the judging team providing 25 judges! They hosted the judging team in their branded trailer and brought new categories and criteria this year. More judges, more categories, more prizes. Check out their new facility and planned race circuit just south of Orillia!
Thank you for the grant!
Double the Pleasure was live on the Mainstage and rocked the house!
Thanks for the Engine Rebuild - Congratulations Richard Gooley!
