With practice and qualifying set to get underway September 12, the race is set for Saturday, September 13, starting at 3:00 pm. Thirty-five participating Sunoco retailers in South-Central Ontario who offer Sunoco touch-free or soft cloth environmentally friendly car washes will give to customers two race tickets with the purchase of every Sunoco Ultra Ecowash while supplies last.

Sunoco’s goal is to support the race and show support for local racing hero, Devon Powell, who along with co-driver Doug Goad drives the Sunoco Ultra 94 Corvette that was the 2001 Grand-Am Cup champion and won the Mosport event in 2002. The race is the first of two Canadian stops on the North American circuit, and Mosport is Powell Motorsports’ home track. Powell hails from nearby Port Perry.

“What better way to showcase Sunoco’s guilt free performance than to offer race tickets to our Ecowash customers,” said Patricia Anderson, Director of Marketing for Suncor Energy Products. “We’re proud to show our appreciation in this way to our customers, retailers and of course the Sunoco Ultra 94 Powell Motorsport Corvette.”

Competing in the Grand Sport I class against Powell in his Ultra 94-sponsored, 500+ horsepower No. 11 Corvette Z06 will be several other production cars, including Porsches, Mustangs and Corvettes. Three other classes fill out the field with an anticipated 50 race cars taking the green flag.

Last year’s race was one of the closest in Grand-Am Cup history, with the Powell Motorsports Corvette winning by a mere 5.816 seconds. The Sunoco Ultra 94 Mosport 3 Hour race will combine the full field of Grand Sport and Sport Touring divisions during the September 12-13 weekend.

Sunoco’s Ecowash is the only car wash to receive the EcoLogo designation from Environment Canada. Sunoco uses environmentally responsible soaps and waxes and ensures that all wastewater is pre-treated through the municipal sanitary sewer system before being released.
