Fire Up For Prostate Cancer Awareness Part Two!

Friday September 18, Dark Side Racing on location at McMahon Stadium as part of PROSTAID Calgary’s “Calgary Stampeders Home Game Tailgate Party”. Over the past 3 years Dark Side Racing has championed PROSTAID Calgary’s cause and successfully delivered our awareness message to an incredibly important target demographic: the 40+ male motorsport enthusiast. Calgary Stampeders football fans are known far and wide to be the loudest and most passionate fans in the entire CFL!
