Local Race Driver Heads for Big Leagues Section Two The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, May 1, 1935 Young Artists Display Work at Visual Arts Centre by Catherine Denny It takes more than ambition ambition to make the wheels go around in the stock car racing racing business -- it takes money, and plenty of it. Of course, for young stock car racers like Randy MacDonald, MacDonald, finding the cash to keep on the track can be a business in itself. Especially Especially when expenses run over $100,000 per racing season. Up until now the young entrepreneur, who started out racing go-carts, has relied relied on his father for financial financial support. But now entering entering his first year of competition competition in high calibre professional professional auto racing, Randy and his crew must attract major sponsors. "I am just starting my first season in the bigger leagues," explained Randy who will be racing in the NASCAR North Coor's Tour, recognized as the best short track racing series in the United States. Points, funds, contingency contingency awards and purses make this the only million dollar northeastern regional regional racing series. The tour has also proven to be a successful farm system for the Winston Cup Grand National National Curcuit (with Petty, Allison, etc.) "My team and I must prove ourselves both on and off the race track if we are to excell in this sophisticated sophisticated sport," said the 22 year-old racer. "Because our progress will be highly dependent on this team's ability to attract major sponsors." Of course Randy, who won Rookie of the Year in 1984, takes racing very seriously and is confident he'll gain the support he needs to get ahead in the game. "I wouldn't race if I didn't think I'd win," he said. A third-year Mechanical Engineering student at the University of Waterloo, Randy is more than just a driver. He is a mechanic, car designer, and most importantly, importantly, an expert when it comes to knowing what it takes to win a race. Although Randy will be returning to school in the fall for his final year at Waterloo, his heart and mind will be far from the classroom this summer. The 1985 Coor's Tour will take the local racer and his crew to over 18 different tracks in Canada and the United States, where they will compete in more than 30 races against the best in their league. "The competitors are all professional and often spectacular in performance," performance," said Randy. "Many teams will have back-up cars and corporate or factory factory sponsorship such as Ford, Buick, and Pepsi." Randy will be driving a vehicle valued at over $40,000 for this series, one that utilizes the latest in au tomotive technology and suspension design -- a far cry from the go-carts he used to race. A year ago, stock car racing racing was still just a dream to Randy MacDonald, but with his enthusiasm and desire to succeed, combined with the continued love and support support of his family, it looks as though Randy's dream just might become a reality.
