The Toronto Indy was an incredible weekend to remember! The sights, the sounds, and the smiles throughout the paddock were abundant. Fans took advantage of all three autograph sessions to pickup some great Racing For Kids swag which created a sea of Racing For Kids momentos throughout the
event.
Saturday began with a rain race that resulted in a great finish amongst the FEL and Blue Marble Series drivers, setting the pace for the second race later that afternoon. Race number two was a tough battle, but focus and determination allowed for a confident mid pack finish!
Sunday mornings race started with a damp track resulting in the use of rain tyres with a plan in place to swap to slicks as the conditions improved. The pace was set and Peter was climbing the ranks. With only 10 minutes remaining in the race, four wide into the remaining corners, Peter was hit from behind
causing an incident between 6 vehicles resulting in a DNF for race three. Overall, an incredible experience and an overwhelming acknowledgement and
appreciation for the support of Racing for Kids.
