This year we're continuing the cross-border competition with the BMW Club Racing Canadian American Challenge. The Can-Am Challenge is a homage to the historic Can-Am series that spanned the Canadian and United States border from 1966-1974. Our 2025 Can-Am Challenge consists of five races

May 15-17 - Watkins Glen
June 1-2 - NJMP – Thunderbolt
June 27-28 - CTMP
Aug 1-2 - NJMP – Lightning
Sept 25-27 - Watkins Glen

A team-based points scheme will determine the winner and the glorious Can-Am trophy will be presented for the country that wins the challenge! Last year, the Americans took the trophy home with them again. Let's bring the trophy home to Canada in 2025! Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, opened in 1961 is a former Formula One Canadian Grand Prix venue and today hosts the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship. It’s an extraordinarily challenging, 2.5 mile, 10-turn roller-coaster ride!

This year we are collaborating with CASC-OR and running on the same weekend as one of their regional race events. The expected schedule is

Saturday: practice, qualify, two sprints
Sunday: warm-up and sprint

With the expectation to be done by noon on Sunday.

Because it is only a two day event, registration cost has been reduced to $760 CAD. Show your support by signing up soon! Your credit card will only be charged on the weekend of the event, and only if you attend and complete at least one lap on the track, so there is no risk.

A test day is available on Friday June 26. The test day is run by the track, You can register at the gate, or pre-register by contacting the track. Information about CTMP test days is at: https://www.casc.on.ca/sites/default/files/Documents/2026%20Regional%20Test%20Day%20Schedule_0.pdf.
