"We are pleased to announce this partnership with Policaro Group and welcome Policaro Motorsport to Oro Station," said Geoffrey Campbell, Founder and Managing Partner of Oro Station. "We're excited to grow motorsports in Canada with the support of partners and showcase Canadian talent like Policaro Motorsport on our Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) approved motor circuit."
The Policaro Group's involvement in motorsport runs the gamut from beginner track experiences to supporting its professional racing team. At the clubhouse, the Group will offer client motorsport experiences including rentals, arrive and drive, coaching and simulator training.
With victories at the Rolex 24 Hours at Daytona, Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge, Porsche Esprint Challenge Canada and Canadian Touring Car Championships, Policaro Group's competitive driving team looks to continue to make its mark on the North American racing scene at its new home at Oro Station.
