Chris Dyson Poised for One Step Higher as Trans Am Visits Canadian Tire Motorsport Park

August 26, 2025

POUGHKEEPSIE, NY (August 26, 2025) – Following a seven-week mid-summer layoff, the Trans Am by Pirelli series returns to action this weekend at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park. After a slow start to the 2025 season, CD Racing has built momentum and become the hottest team in the series, winning two of the three most recent races, including a pair of one-two sweeps, pole position at all three races and a total of five podium finishes.

“I’ve been racing at CTMP for more than 20 years, and it will always be Mosport to us,” Dyson said. “After all the success Dyson Racing has enjoyed there over the years in other classes it was great when last year this amazing circuit came back on the Trans Am schedule after way too long an absence. Thanks to my friends Ron Fellows and Myles Brandt for having us back this year. We finished second in 2024; my goal on Saturday is to put our #16 Ford Mustang where it belongs, in the GYM WEED Winner’s Circle.”

The Trans Am series has a long history at CTMP; hosting its first Trans Am race in 1976, but until last year the most recent running was in 2014.

“The track is always very fast and flowing, and it reminds you every lap to treat it with respect," Dyson said. “You get a great rhythm especially when the car is dialed in. On the other hand, although there have been substantial safety improvements since I started racing there, there are still potentially big penalties for mistakes at Mosport. So it is probably the most bracing and thrilling road racing track in North America. Every sense is heightened to the maximum.  I am pumped to be back in front of our longtime Canadian fans once again to put on another terrific show."
