The Canadian Motorsport Hall of Fame's 15th annual Induction Gala

Saturday, February 23rd, 2008

 

The Canadian Motorsport Hall of Fame's 15th annual Induction Gala took place on Saturday, February 23rd, at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre on the final evening of the Canadian International Auto Show partly taking place in the same building. The evening was one of celebration and reflection as a sold out house welcomed the newest inductees into the hall and listened intently to each of their speeches. Additionally all attendees were treated to the wonderful reflections on racing from guest speaker Alain de Cadenet who charmed all with his memories of a more glorious time, and gave advice to the young racers who were present.

 

Medallions presented to each Inductee. These will also be on display at the Hall of Fame.
