The Classics Bracket Races

The Classics Bracket Races RAD Torque Raceway MHDRA Drag Strip Mission Raceway Park

Here are the racer appreciation awards we presented during the most recent leg of the 2023 , the Western Canadian Summer held at MHDRA Drag Strip. Our heartfelt gratitude extends to all involved in contributing to the resounding success of the final instalment of this year’s events. Thank you to all the sponsors who came on and allowed us the opportunity to provide the racers with the best goodies.

And with this shout out we officially close the books to the 2023 Western Canadian Summer Classic!!

We kicked off the weekend with a determination to conclude the final leg of the 2023 classic series with a bang, and we certainly achieved that goal!
Anticipating adverse weather conditions on Sunday, the Classics team took proactive measures by combining both Saturday and Sunday races into one huge combined main event. Brett Taylor navigated through the No Box side with determination and secured a win against Gerry Brown! This was Brett's second winner's circle of the weekend after taking yesterday’s Second Chance win. Our other last standing No Box car was Monty Beagle.

Following the completion of the fourth round, our final Second Chance race commenced, attracting 39 racers vying for an opportunity to shine among The Classic’s Champions. As the rounds dwindled, Eric Goulden was the last one standing, seizing his second chance and walking away with a well-deserved prize of $4680!

The Shootouts showcased thrilling clashes on the track. Mark Faul emerged as the winner in the Pathmaker 16 Car No Box Shootout, while Tanner Gaetz was the winner of the 32 Car Artex Racing Box Shootout.

All in all it was a huge day for bracket racing in Western Canada. With over $80,000 paid out today it was the largest single paying day in The Classics history!

We extend our sincere appreciation for everyone’s support and participation this year. Thanks to all the staff, sponsors, racers, host tracks and everyone else who has supported us along the way.

See y’all in 2024!
