Road Racing, Drag Racing & Short Track Champs to be Honoured on Saturday, March 11th
On Saturday, March 11 (2023) Canadian racers who won season-long track or series road racing, drag racing and short track championships, in 2022, will be honoured during the Fast Eddie Speedwear Night of Champions. The annual event takes place on the Main Stage at the Toronto Motorama Custom Car & Motorsports Expo presented by eBay Motors.
With more than 150 champions representing the entire spectrum of Canadian racing expected to participate, the Fast Eddie Night of Champions is unique in the world of motorsports. Nowhere else are so many current champions assembled in one place, at one time, to celebrate their achievements and be honoured by their families, teams, peers, and fans.
During the three-part ceremony, championship winning racers will be called to the stage, individually, to be recognized and receive a custom-made plaque, a commemorative T-shirt custom designed and supplied by Fast Eddie Speedwear, and other prizes.
The Fast Eddie Road Racing Night of Champions kicks off at 3 p.m. and is followed by the Drag Racing Night of Champions (4:30 p.m.) and the Short Track Night of Champions (6:15 p.m.). Eligible title winning racers are currently registering for the event at MotoramaShow.com and can do so until February 17, 2023.

“The Fast Eddie Night of Champions is one of our favourite parts of the show,” said Motorama co-promoter David Weber. “This year marks the 10th annual ceremony honouring the Short Track and Drag Racing champions, and the second consecutive year that we’ve also celebrated Canadian Road Racing champions during the ceremony. It really has grown into something special, and we’re honoured to have our friends at Fast Eddie as the Night of Champions sponsor. They are a prominent and long-running exhibitor at Motorama. They are the Official Supplier of all our show shirts and clothing, and they’re incredibly connected to the Canadian racing community, making them a perfect fit.”
Speaking on behalf of Fast Eddie, Tony Paton said, “Our team at Fast Eddie are racers ourselves, as well as being racing fans. So, it’s special for all of us to see competitors representing all ages and forms of motorsports, on stage and being applauded for their accomplishments. The Fast Eddie Night of Champions is another great way that we can reinforce our support for Canadian motorsports. We also look forward to connecting with racers and fans at the large Fast Eddie booth, located in the southeast corner of Hall 2, where we’ve been for years.
“We’ll have a wide assortment of our race gear on display – featuring crew shirts, custom hats and t-shirts for teams and tracks. We’ll also have our full collection of racing safety gear on hand, including helmets, gloves, shoes and everything drivers and crews need to stay safe on the track and in the pits. And for racing and car enthusiasts, we’ll have lots of our own Fast Eddie Speedwear collection, with a ton of new styles for 2023! Motorama is always a great way to kick off the season, see friends and customers who we haven’t seen since the Fall, and to make some new friends.”
The eighth annual Toronto eBay Motors Motorama show takes place March 10, 11 & 12, 2023 at The International Centre, across from Pearson Airport. For tickets and show info, visit MotoramaShow.com.
