Radical Speed Sport Car Show A Huge Success For Our Team & Sponsors
We entered the Radical Speedsport car show from April 21 to April 23 and were very happy with the number of people who dropped by for pictures and well wishes for the coming season.
We have a practice day coming on May 13th then opening day on May 20th.
My schedule isn’t done yet because of a few uncertainties, but hopefully we know more soon about racing other cars throughout 2023, like a Sportsman (called Super Stock in Ontario), a Dirt Late Model and a 4 cylinder. I will know more about these opportunities soon.
I’m still have issues with posting on my Message Board but Go Daddy tells me everything is fine, so I went to my internet provider and had them give me the max speed. I hope that issue (since October) get resolved as well…..Thanks for visiting our site.
49th Annual Radical Speed Sport Moncton April 21st to 23rd
We have our car set up for display at the Coliseum in Moncton for the 49th annual Radical Speedsport show. This will be our first show of 2023 and we look forward to seeing a big crowd for this awesome show, very similar to Motorama in Ontario.
We’ve done a lot of work detailing the car for this special season with Quaker State, celebrating our 50th year together.
Special thanks to my crew and all my sponsors for their tremendous support and dedication. I also want to thank Kirk Alexander from Finish Line Vinyl for his excellent work lettering our car.
We are also very excited to announce we have added three more sponsors to our team in the past month.
Hub Well Drilling located in Murray Siding…..Nickerson Auto Salvage in Antigonish and Robby’s Towing in Sydney Nova Scotia. Special thanks to these new sponsors who will blend in perfectly with our existing sponsors.
I will post a picture from the show this weekend but I won’t access to my computer until Sunday night.
I will be positing our 2023 schedule in a week or so.

Preparing For The Radical Speed Sport Show In Moncton…..First Time Using Hood Hinges Like This
We hopefully will have the car lettered by Kirk Alexander this weekend as we prepare for our first time shown at the Radical Speed Sport show in Moncton. This will be their 49th season of hosting car shows.
This past weekend we finished a few small details, installing 2 rear shocks, the driveshaft, hooking up the starter and adding hood pin plates.
Something new for our team is the installing of new hood hinges. I never used these before and love them. My crew member Bob Landry installed them, making it look easy and making the car look awesome.
I’m still having issues with my message board. I’ve called Go-Daddy a few times but they tell me it’s fine, and it is to look at it, but I can’t update anything because it times out. It’s possible I could have a new message board installed but I’ve been told if I do that I will lose everything currently posted on the message board and that can’t be.
I’m still trying. The other day I got on and added the word 54 inside the 53 Years of Stats and that was it, timed out on me. I’m still trying to get it working.

2023 Race Program Getting Closer
We have been working a lot on our race program for 2023. Shannon Riley, Bob Landry, Chris White and Jack Lynds have been helping me get our car ready for an upcoming show on April 21st. I will post about that soon.
We finally got all the body installed and the chassis done, just a few small things left to do. The next job will be to have the car lettered which will be in less than 2 weeks.
Our car takes on the look of our 50th Anniversary Diecast. By the way there are still Diecast left for anyone who would like one of these world record productions, the longest driver sponsor partnership in racing history.
I am still having trouble with my Message Board, hopefully I can get that fixed, been trying several times to get things updated but the page continually times out. I’ve asked Go-Daddy for support but they say it’s fine……nope. More front page updates soon, I have a new computer now.

Canadian Motorsports Hall of Fame Inductee
I was humbled, surprised, honored and very happy to be inducted into the Canadian Motorsports Hall of Fame. There were 13 of us in the Class of 2022. They gave us recognition with a short video presentation and then some time to speak. We were told we had 5 minutes, but everyone went beyond the time limit suggested.
Thanks to those who came to support me. My children, David and daughter-in-law Jeannie, Shirley and my son-in-law Derrick, my grandkids Gehrig and Lauren, Jim Hulzinga my longtime crew chief, two of my current crew from Nova Scotia, Chris White and Jack Lynds, Jack also brought Jada Totten his fiancé.
Two of my sponsors also made it, Jay Linde and his wife Colleen from Grindstone Landscaping and from Motor City Madness Board Game Denis Duval and Craig Tozer.
Finally, my good friend and longtime fan, the man who nominated me for this prestigious award, Dan Huff. Thank you to them all for their awesome support.
I am still working on my website, I can’t update anything right now and I don’t know why. I am in the stages of getting a new tower and going to windows 11, so hopefully that will help.
