Overview

The fifth season of racing had a few different race procedures for the 12 events to be run this season spanning across 5 provinces featuring 12 events. New procedures include a new rookie of the year format, the introduction of the wave around and three attempts at a green-white-checker finish. All of the races were televised on TSN in one-hour tape delayed episodes, excluding Circuit Gilles Villeneuve and Toronto which were aired live on the network.

The season started off May 28 at Mosport International Raceway, where 2008 champion Scott Steckly led most of race and went on to win the event. He won three events and finished in the runner up position 4 times on his way to capture his second championship over D.J. Kennington, who had a pair of wins. Long time road racer Robin Buck and Rookie Peter Shepherd III won their first career events respectively. Andrew Ranger won the two biggest events of the year in dominant fashion at Montreal and Toronto. Former champion Don Thomson Jr. retired after a lengthy career.

gollark: This is of course silly, because:- there are many more possible gods than the rewards-you-for-belief-in-your-specific-thing- it is possible that a god will punish you for "insincere" wager-driven belief
gollark: Basically, it's the idea that, since there's a chance of god existing, and if they do you'll get infinite happiness if you do believe or infinite suffering if you don't, but if they don't exist you'll not lose much by believing anyway.
gollark: I can provide a brief summary I guess.
gollark: Religion informs people's actions. *It is relevant*.
gollark: Also, opportunity cost.
