“Partnering with Petty International Raceway is a perfect fit for Eastern Powder Coating,” said Scott Chisholm of Eastern Powder Coating. “Several of our customers race within Atlantic Canada and this marketing opportunity with Wayne and Ellen Smith gives us a chance to showcase our business to new clients within the sport. We look forward to seeing everyone at the track on the Victoria Day Weekend!”
“Petty International Raceway is pleased to welcome Eastern Powder Coating to our racing family with the Legend division,” said Wayne Smith of Petty International Raceway. “This year will see the Eastern Powder Coating Legends with stacked fields including some of the top running cars and best drivers in the Maritimes. We have a bunch of young, hungry drivers who will use this class as a rung in the ladder through the divisions of racing in the Maritimes. We also have veteran drivers who call the Eastern Powder Coating Legends home and want to outrace the young guns every time the green flag drops. This is a great fit for both Petty International Raceway and Eastern Powder Coating and we look forward to a great season!”
