The agreement is a result of one man\u2019s passion for racing. <\/span>Dan Provost is RAD Torque System\u2019s founder and president. For many decades, he and his family have participated in motorsports. This included sponsoring drag race cars, teams, and events across North America.<\/p>\n \u201cCanadian drag racers have not been allowed in the US to compete for the last two years due to COVID-19, so our participation in the Edmonton race facility is welcome news for all of us,\u201d says Provost. \u201cThis partnership is a natural fit for us. Many RAD Torque customers are from Alberta as a result of the oil and gas industry, and many drag racers in the province know us and use our tools.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Dan Provost has been racing for more than 12 years. But it was his son, Darien — a drag racer himself — who introduced his father to the Reeves family.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI was first introduced to Chevy Reeves, and I was impressed with him as a person and a racer. I agreed to sponsor his beautiful dragster with the RAD Torque logo,\u201d says Provost. \u201cAnd later found out that there was an opportunity to take over the sponsorship of the ENTIRE race facility. Needless to say, I was very enthusiastic to become such a large part of the amazing facility in Edmonton.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n The new partnership and facility name also come with some exciting facility improvements. These include resurfacing the quarter-mile dragstrip, installing new sound systems, upgrading LED lighting, and enhancing app-based competitor tech and registration.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are lucky to have RAD Torque Systems, a Canadian company with a strong racing background, support our raceway,\u201d says Chevy Reeves. \u201cSince news came out about RAD joining our racing family, we\u2019ve received overwhelming positive feedback from our fans.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The raceway will host a large launch party in mid-November to celebrate the new partnership.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u00a0IFormer Castrol Raceway becomes RAD Torque Raceway ABBOTSFORD, BC (November 24, 2021) \u2013 The popular Edmonton racetrack and complex (formerly known as Castrol Raceway) has a new name: RAD Torque Raceway.
