Drags: St. Thomas Dragway to host 'Show me the Money Tour' ... and other news

SHOW ME THE MONEY TOUR HEADING TO ST. THOMAS DRAGWAY

SPARTA, ON - Canada's longest running and richest drag racing series, The Show Me the Money Tour, will be coming to St. Thomas Dragway July 4,5& 6, 2008. The tour which regularly campaigns in Northern and Eastern Ontario as well as Quebec, is Canada's most successful touring drag racing series.

Operated by Arnie Malcolm of Luskville Dragway just west of Ottawa in Quebec the series feature's a monster $10,000 payout for Sunday's Super Pro/Top class as well as large payouts for Mod/Pro, Street and Bike/Sled. The St. Thomas Dragway Stop on the Tour will also include Top Sportsman and Top Dragster classes.

Benson Auto Parts, based in Ottawa, is the major sponsor of the series and Benson's Glenn Highland stated that this move coincides with Benson's expansion into Western Ontario. They have already opened two stores in London, one across from Ace Radiator on Bessemer Road and the other across from Kydd Radiator on Hamilton Road.

Malcolm attended the Turkey Nationals in October with several of his racers and had this to say - "I've got to be honest, I fell in love with the place, one of the nicest tracks I have ever been to and I had a blast racing there!!" Malcolm added that additional enhancements to the show will be announced at a later date.
