Toronto Grand Prix Race
The Steelback Toronto Grand Prix racing event will be held July 6th, 7th, and 8th, 2007 just west of downtown Toronto. Formerly the Molson Indy, the race draws tens of thousands of fans annually, like those who watched American AJ Allmendinger win the 2006 Toronto Grand Prix race.
Part of the international Champ Car Series, The Grand Prix is run on a street and road course, making the race much more exciting and interesting for the fans. Where Indy races are held in stadiums and formal parks, Champ Car Racing is run on roads and streets in major cities, making it more accessible and fun to watch.

The Toronto Grand Prix dates back to 1997. The track is an 11 turn 2.8 kilometre track and is run at the CNE (Canadian National Exhibition). It is sponsored by Steelback Breweries, who have lent their name to the Steelback Toronto Grand Prix. Race fans will enjoy a great time visiting Toronto's major street race and will enjoy the indoor waterslide at Delta Chelsea, Toronto's highest indoor waterslide.
