Start your engines! The 30th annual Georgian College Auto Show pulls into the Barrie Campus from June 5th through June 7th. Each year, the event attracts more than 15,000 visitors from across Ontario. The show is completely run by students at the Automotive Business School of Canada, which includes everything from the marketing, sponsorship, recruitment and training to physical resources and community events. With an experience unlike any other, the show offers something for everyone – from the classic car fan to the high-powered sports car enthusiast to the couple looking for the perfect new family vehicle.
Special events also liven up the weekend. Batman, and the Batmobile will take centre stage at the main tent. Also popular will be the Electric Vehicle Experience, the Kidzone and distracted driver displays where visitors can learn about the hazards involved in texting and driving.
Two professional drivers will race brave participants around the Pfaff Autocross Track. This year, participants will have their choice of a variety of vehicles provided by exotic car dealership Pfaff Porsche for a small donation. Proceeds support Camp Bucko, a summer camp for children with burn injuries.
Grand Touring Automobiles is returning with a selection of beautiful exotic cars. Other fun exhibits include distracted driver displays, racing teams, Zenetec and the Chemical Guys Canada.
