Get Your Hands on the Hottest Motorsports Ticket in Central Ontario

Get Your Hands on the Hottest Motorsports Ticket in Central Ontario

What started off as barely a whisper can now be heard at a volume level previously reserved for rock concert sound systems. The most-anticipated show of the 2022 schedule is just over a week away and if there has ever a must-see event on the calendar, this one is it. 

 

Peterborough Speedway staff is thrilled to confirm that for the first time since the 2018 season, the APC Pro Late Model Series will return to Canada's Toughest 3rd Mile Oval Saturday, June 18th. And this time, they're bringing along their racing cousins in the Qwick Wick Firestarter Super Stock tour. Don't wait to hear about it from your friends. Make sure you see it for yourself.  

 

Hurry to www.eventsprout.com/event/peterborough-speedway-june-18th-2022 to order your advance tickets for this outstanding racing experience. In addition to 100 laps for the APC Pro Late Model teams and a 50 lap feature tilt for the Qwick Wick Super Stock runners, the KOD Disposal presented show will also include support from the home track Battlefield Equipment Rental Bone Stock and Trent Lakes Complete Plumbing Renegade Truck divisions. 

 

"We're expecting one of the bigger; if not the biggest Saturday night crowd of this year's regular season," offered Peterborough Speedway track owner and promoter J.P. Josiasse. "Fans are advised to act fast to avoid the disappointment of missing this event." 

 

Even though the tight, tricky bullring on Mount Pleasant Road has hosted the APC Pro Late Model Series on 4 different occasions in the past, there have only been a couple of main event winners. Shawn Chenoweth took the checkered flags in 2015 and 2016, with Brandon Watson – who is a now a regular with the NASCAR Pinty's Series – claiming victories in 2017 and 2018. Teams with the Qwick Wick Firestarter Super Stock tour have logged just a single start, with Carson Nagy taking the 2021 win.  

 

Peterborough Speedway alumni will play a prominent role in the starting line-up for each division. On the Pro Late Model side of the coin, former Autumn Colours Classic champion Ryan Kimball, Mini Stock graduate Danny Benedict and Connor James – who ran with the Canadian Legend Cars and OMRS Mods – are expected to be in the field. Reigning track title holder Anthony Dibello and another former home track runner Miles Tyson could join the Super Stock roster. 

 

Find complete details and information about the Saturday, June 18th Peterborough Speedway return of the APC Pro Late Model Series and Qwick Wick Firestarter Super Stock Tour atwww.peterboroughspeedway.com or the track's various social media platforms.

NASCAR Diversity Internship Program Welcomes 2022 Class

The NASCAR industry welcomed a program-record 36 interns

leading up to the 2022 Coca-Cola 600

 

Daytona Beach, Fla. (June 9, 2022) – The NASCAR Diversity Internship Program (NDIP) kicked off its 21st  year hosting undergraduate and graduate students across the sport. This year's NDIP class includes interns from nine Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), multiple student-athletes and two returning NDIP alumni.

 

The NASCAR Diversity Internship Program is a 10-week program that offers hands-on experience across various roles in the motorsports industry. College students of color selected to participate network with industry executives and learn from experts in one of the largest professional sports industries.

 

"We're excited to welcome a new class of interns and students from diverse backgrounds who will be exposed to an incredible industry of professionals eager to showcase what our sport is all about," said Brandon Thompson, NASCAR Vice President, Diversity and Inclusion, and the first NDIP alum to be elevated to an officer role at NASCAR. "NASCAR continues to evolve and the NDIP is one of several programs introducing younger and more diverse audiences to our sport. It's an important effort and we couldn't be more thrilled about our '22 class."

 

NDIP was launched in 2000 and since then more than 500 college students have participated in the industry's longest-running diversity initiative. The program has grown to include several industry partners, providing career opportunities to various NDIP participants: 23XI Racing, General Motors, Hendrick Motorsports, RFK Racing, Rev Racing, RCR, Sonoma Raceway, World Wide Technology Raceway.

 

In addition to Thompson, the sanctioning body employs several former interns including Jusan Hamilton, Sr. Director, Racing Operations & Event Management; Kathryn Lee, Sr. Director, Marketing Activation; Marvin Aylor, Director, Partnership Marketing; Cole McGinnis, Sr. Manager, Licensing and Consumer Products; Greg Carty, Manager, Licensing and Consumer Products; Jason Simmons, Sr. Manager, International Operations & Strategy; Jordan Leatherman, Sr. Manager, Diversity & Inclusion; Erica Wilkerson, Sr. Manager, Youth & Multicultural Marketing; Jazz Warren, Coordinator, Track Communications; Josh Pena, Coordinator, Event Experience; and Victoria Garcia, Associate Producer.
