March 24, 2017 THOROLD, ONTARIO – Looking for products to help you jump-start spring? Come see the Pet Experts at Vansickle PetValu and Groomingdale’s.
Looking for some initiative to jump-start your Enduro Car?
Spring is here and the first qualifier accelerated by Niagara College is about two months away … Challenge family members … friends and co-workers … there is still plenty of time to put a car together. Enduro Racing is part SCIENCE, part STUNT, part INFO-TAINMENT and always 100% ADRENALINE and OUTRAGEOUS FUN.
“Vansickle PetValu is all about fun times and great experiences with our pets,” said franchisee Jeff Riley, “and Enduro Racing is all about fun times and great experiences as well … we look forward to hosting the qualifiers and the 100 lap Finale… we’d like to issue a challenge – Get yourself a car and join in!”
“It’s pretty basic,” adds (Merrittville Owner) Don Spiece, “it’s a street car with safety modifications – everything else is stock as you found it … an Enduro Car is not a race car – it’s a car that races. Maybe it’s time you put a beating on your Winter Beater … someone you know may have a wreck that they want to get rid of or your closest automotive recycler may have something for you!”
Push up your sleeves and get your hands dirty. Cars will be jacked up, busted apart and pushed to the limit and beyond. You’ll crash, skid, swerve, slam and demolish your way through 100 laps. Settle the bragging rights in the family … on your street … on your team or on the job!

Throughout the history of Enduro Racing at Merrittville – a complete roster would include some of our regular Saturday Night Bobcat of Hamilton Weekly Racing Series Racers … drivers that may specialize in events such as these or Demolition Derbies and first time competitors.
