Two of Eastern Canada’s most popular race cars – the Top Fuel dragsters owned by Todd & Tony Paton (Paton Racing)  and by Smax & Aidan Smith (Ant Hill Mob) – were front and centre for the drag racing portion of the Auto Show.

Venice & Lorraine Perno (Owners of Performance Cellar) at Stoney Creek ON, had their multi-time NHRA national record holding SS/CS Mustang on display.

Both Wally & Chelsea Clark and Kevin Dundas had their Super Stock class machines on hand.  Wally & Chelsea will hit the road immediately after the car show to travel to NHRA’s season opener at Gainesville with their Pontiac Grand Am.  Kevin Dundas –  now President of Canada’s legend name speed equipment  company Karbelt — bought in his pride & joy fan favourite Mopar Hemi car.

The Canadian International Car Show also welcomed the fully restored ’53 Corvette which won 2X IHRA World Championships for Kenny Lang & Al Billes (2008-09).  The car has been meticulously rebuilt by it’s new owner and driver  Paul Coull (Drumbo ON).

A blast from the past was also on display!  That’s the “Charley Horse” AA/A which was campaigned as early as NHRA Pomona way back in 1970.  The vintage altered is owned by Charley and Scott Haviland.
