Brandon and fellow racer Rob Rock, Toronto Motorsports Park
“I had my mom’s unwavering support. She bought my first drag bike and a small trailer to get it back and forth to the track,” shares Brandon. While Brandon grew up in St. Thomas, he now lives in Byron with his partner, Carla, and their two Chihuahuas. “I love Byron for the friendly people and its small-town feel.” That sense of community is something Brandon also finds at the track. Everyone helps each other, and he loves that there is no age limit. “I race with folks in their 70s, racing more than 150mph, with no signs of slowing down,” he laughs. Brandon invites anyone interested in learning more about drag racing to come to St. Thomas Dragway or Grand Bend Motorplex. “Drag racing is an exciting sport that’s a full sensory experience – the kind of thing you have to see in person to appreciate.”
