Dean Fantin and the Labourers Union BMW 330i stood on the podium twice this past weekend during the Vortex Brakes 200 at Mosport International Raceway northeast of Toronto. Having qualified 2nd for Saturday’s race Dean took the lead before the second corner and hung on to it for the first 20 min of racing. The Subaru of Richard Boake was never far behind and made a late race pass for the lead, both drivers swapped the lead between them a few more times before the checker flag dropped with Dean on the rear bumper of the Subaru. For Sunday’s race the starting positions were decided from Saturday’s finishing order, the Labourers Union BMW 330i took the green flag alongside Boake’s Subaru but on the outside of the first corner. Dean slid back behind the Subaru and started a hot pursuit that would last for the next 30 minutes of intense green flag racing. At the end of it all Dean Fantin and the Amico team had posted the fastest laps of the race but it hadn’t been enough to get by the well driven Subaru of Richard Boake.
The Amico Racing team heads into the Toronto Indy second place in the Castrol Canadian Touring Car Championship with a 10 point deficit. Success or failure on the rough streets of Toronto will be dependent on the preparation and hard work that’s put in by the teams over the next week.
