We Made It to Canada! | Crossing the Peace Bridge with a Race Hauler

Well, hello everybody and welcome back to The Racing Trucker! Big day today — we are crossing the border into Canada and heading to Canadian Tire Motorsport Park for IMSA race week. Got all the paperwork ready, fueled the generator in Buffalo, and it's time to find out how this whole border crossing thing goes with a race hauler. Before we roll, we address the elephant in the room — the Watkins Glen electrical demon that sent our Mustang GT4 home early. Good news: simple fix, car is solid, and we are good to go. Also: yes, the spider is still there. 🕷️ On the road from Rochester to Buffalo, we get into something a lot of fans ask about — how racing team workers actually get paid. Contract workers vs. team employees, how rates get set, how billing works. A real look at the business side of professional motorsport that most people never see. Then it's the main event: parking scramble at the Peace Bridge duty-free lot, US Customs paperwork, crossing into Canada, and a run up the 407 toll road to bypass Toronto traffic — all before getting this rig washed and staged at the track for tomorrow's load-in. Come back tomorrow when we open the doors in the paddock and IMSA race week officially begins. Join me for that! Remember to like and subscribe so you don't miss it. Thanks a lot, guys. See you tomorrow.
