Welcome to the website of the St. Lawrence Automobile Club or as it is better known: St LAC, (pronounced “Saint Lack”). The Club calls Kingston, Ontario, Canada home and is the motor sport group to join for any enthusiasts in South Eastern Ontario.
Why Join St LAC?
Some 16 ST LAC members enjoyed a day of karting and sunshine recently. When asked about their experience we got this:
‘I may have found a new sport!’
‘ST LAC is amazing. Thanks to the exec for making this happen!’
‘I never could have imagined how much fun this could be.’
‘The only thing that could have made this better was to have Roger C with us today.’
The proof:

This year’s stages are named after waterfront points the racers pass. Here’s the map: 
DRIVE FEST Sep 8 – 10 at CTMP
Drive Fest 2023 – We are putting the final plans together for Drive Fest next weekend and we can use a few more volunteers. Our display will include all 5 Divisions of CASC-OR: Autoslalom, Ice Racing, Karting, Road Racing, and Time Attack. Ideally we’ll have one person from each Division “on duty” at all times. To do this we’ll need 6 volunteers from each discipline. Have you got time to help out? We are hoping people will work half the day and then spend the remainder checking out the rest of the event. Free admission for all volunteers and a T-shirt. We have new banners and a much bigger space this year – come and help us out.
Our display is being organized by ST LAC’s own Pat Cyr – if you can help contact Pat directly for more details pcrrally@gmail.com.
For those of you that simply want to attend the event as spectators, CASC-OR has a discount code to save on the admission fee. BUY TICKETS HERE and use the discount code CASC20.
Planning to have the first group (race cars) out by 5:30! 
It was a perfect day to get work done on the St. Lawrence Auto Club‘s CRX. There is a light a comin’ ….

Gran Turismo is based on the unbelievable true story of a team of unlikely underdogs – a struggling working-class gamer (Archie Madekwe), a failed former racecar driver (David Harbour), and an idealistic motorsport executive (Orlando Bloom). Together, they risk it all to take on the most elite sport in the world. Gran Turismo is an inspiring, thrilling, and action-packed story that proves that nothing is impossible when you’re fueled from within. 
Starting August 25th at Cineplex.
2023 August Update
Happy August everyone. It has been a few months since we sent the last broadcast message so the time seemed right for an update…
DRIVE FEST Sep 8 – 10 at CTMP
Drive Fest 2023 – CASC-OR will once again have a display at this event in September. This year we have been given space for up to 10 cars to be on display in the upper area by the CTMP Conference Centre. The plan is to have vehicles from every Division represented. That also means we need volunteers from every Division to staff the event.
This year our display is being organized by Pat Cyr – if you can help out please contact Pat directly for more details pcrrally@gmail.com.
For those of you that simply want to attend the event as spectators, CASC-OR has a discount code to save on the admission fee. BUY TICKETS HERE and use the discount code CASC20.

CASC-OR Board Positions
There are quite a few CASC-OR Board positions up for election this year. If you are interested in getting more involved please either contact a current Board member, or feel free to reach out to me directly.
Treasurer – Anne McCallum has agreed to stay on for another term, but will be pleased if someone else would like to “give it a try”.
Vice President – the Vice President’s role is changing. I’d like someone in the position that is ready, willing and able to take over should the President (me) need to reduce their time commitment.
Division Directors for Race, Autoslalom, and Karting are available. The existing Directors have served multiple terms and do not intend to stay on. Continue reading
Thanks to our intrepid man-in-the-field photographer, ST LAC exec and all-round great guy Dan Gray for the following pictures.
Hi all,
First off I’d like to thank everyone who made it out to volunteer, or race, at last weekends Peter Jackson VARAC races. It was a great turn out with great weather and great racing.
We are going to postpone the next CRX Build Party that was to be held this coming Sunday. We will now shoot for the following Sunday, August 20.
Finally, Danby has contacted the go-kart track in Smith Falls. It is looking more promising, however we are still awaiting for available dates. Once we have more information we will reach out to get that ball rolling.
