Mobil 1 Sportscar Grand Prix, CTMP

[Howard Cohen]

This weekend is the Mobil 1 Sportscar Grand Prix at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park featuring some amazing racing cars! Today the teams set up their work areas and got some test time on the track. Here are my photos from Day 1...

I will be adding more photos every day this weekend, so check back

Thanks for posting. Wonder which is our chance of seeing a kit of one of those? slim or fat?

There is the Revell Corvette, a good start; you can modify a Camaro and Mustang, not much chance of the rest   Maybe in resin?

Well as Howard said, you can get the Revell C7R. As for the Mustang you'd have to do a conversion from the Revell snapper. As for the Prototype, maybe Patto's Place will do a slot body...they've got the last gen of DP car, but not the new Cadillac's yet. And as for the BMW M6....there's one coming, Platz has done one, but it was suppose to have been out last October, and has been pushed back monthly since. It's now suppose to be this month....but I've stopped holding my breathe. I've had mine on pre-order since they were announced last August.

Thanks for posting pics Howard. I really wanted to go this year, but everyone's away on holidays and I'm covering shifts all weekend. Oh well, maybe next year.

The prototypes were what I was really thinking of.

Here is a photo of a prototype chassis, almost naked...does it remind you of any car?
