My passion is auto racing - there's no other challenge quite like itI am a graduate student studying engineering in Toronto. I've always wanted to race cars, but never really had the opportunity in the past. In 2005, I took the plunge with a 1985.5 Porsche 944. The 944 is a good entry-level car; it's well balanced, has good handling, and relatively inexpensive to maintain. I joined the Porsche Club of America and signed up for many Driver's Education events that are held in the Upper Canada Region (in southern Ontario). Additionally, I signed up for several out of region events. In the end, I managed to rack up an incredible 16 track days in my first summer at venues such as Mosport, Watkins Glen and Mt. Tremblant. In April 2006, I attended the HRC Racing School course at Shannonville and received my regional racing license shortly thereafter. |
As the 944 qualifies as a vintage car in the G70 class, I decided that my first event should be the VARAC 27th Vintage Racing Festival at the end of June. In July, I also raced in the 944 Cup series and the Porsche Club Race, both at Mosport. My longer term goal is to be able to race a competitive car in a national series. Please drop me a line if you are interested in sponsoring Zedd Racing. We are looking for financial or in-kind sponsorships. Any other manner of support is also welcomed. |
