The Driving Forces Behind Area 27

While Area 27 is built on the hard work and dedication of many people, it took the vision of one person to drive it from concept toward completion. It started in 1978 when one 11-year-old boy watched in awe as a relatively unknown Canadian racecar driver took the motorsport world by storm and showed people everywhere that by working hard, taking chances, and acting with full commitment and integrity, anything is possible – even for a kid from the Okanagan with a dream of racing cars on a track in his own backyard.
