Happy New Year from the entire Dark Side Racing Team!

Work has already commenced on our 2015 Calendar of Events and Dark Side Racing is stoked! We have another exciting year of drag racing and promotional activities in the works and we are confident that our sponsors will be beyond satisfied by our efforts. Dark Side Racing understands that in order for our sponsors to benefit from our efforts, it’s not good enough that we reach your target markets. In order to be truly effective, we must also enhance their experience. That mission was accomplished in 2014, in spades. Dark Side Racing is a proven commodity and in 2015 our Campaign will be faster, louder and even more effective!

We’d like to thank Calgary Herald’s Greg Williams for including Dark Side Racing in his last article of the year – a retrospective of 2014.

Greg Williams looks back on his favourite stories of 2014
In late June I wrote about Dark Side Racing, a nitro-burning Top Fuel drag racing team from Calgary. Throughout the year, they love to fire up their 10,000 horsepower dragster at local car shows.
Dark Side’s David Fedorowich of Calgary has a serious penchant for speed, and he’s been building, tuning and racing since the early 1970s.
Now, Dark Side Racing has taken on the issue of men’s health. The team uses their high-profile Top Fuel racing operation as a platform to raise awareness about prostate cancer, and have fostered a strong alliance with PROSTAID Calgary.
A dynamic presence wherever they are, the crowd always enjoys interacting with the team, and spectators are often allowed to slip behind the wheel of the dragster.
Their first appearance of 2015 will be at the 49th annual World of Wheels at BMO Centre in Calgary from Feb.20 to 22, where Dark Side Racing will be launching their PROSTAID Calgary Raffle fundraiser.
