LINDSAY RICE:
TORONTO TO THE TRACK WITH CANADA’S NEXT GREAT RACE CAR DRIVER BY MIKE SPRY For most drivers, our first car was a beater, a hand-me-down, a lemon; something discarded by a parent, an aunt, or an older sibling. It didn’t offer much in terms of style or status, but it represented something bigger: freedom, independence, escape. For most drivers, our first car was simply a vehicle – both literal and figurative – to something else, to somewhere else, to someone else. For most drivers, our first car was not about driving or affection for engineering or a gateway to a future behind the wheel.
