An adrenaline-packed weekend featuring rally cars whipping around paved and dirt roads – and flying through the air – drew more than 12,000 spectators to the Canada Aviation and Space Museum, organizers say.
The Red Bull Global Rallycross brought its championship event to Canada for the first time on June 17 and 18 in conjunction with the Ottawa 2017 Bureau, which is organizing a series of events surrounding Canada’s 150th anniversary.
