Record year for the Défi-Vision
Nearly 4,000 spectators were present and 42 cars on the track! An amount of $ 111,000 was donated to the Mira Foundation at the 31st Défi-Vision. A special thank you to the team Patrick Morin - Le centre de la rénovation, without whom none of this would have been possible. Thanks to all the spectators, participants, volunteers and members of the organizing committee including Granby Autodrome, Remorquage Boissonneault, the Blue Knights and the Knights of Columbus. A huge thank you to Remorquage Boissonneault for preparing the cars and supervising the event and to Autowrap 360 for graciously lettering all the cars. Warmest thanks to Patrick Benoit, traffic chronicler, who was the spokesperson of the race this year and copilot of car #1.
We would like to point out that the Défi-Vision is not a speed competition, but an opportunity to live a unique and unforgettable experience while raising money for the Mira Foundation.
