Hey all,

I've very happy to announce that Canada's own Keven Hebert from Team Associated will be attending the Victoria WCICS race this year.  Keven is a class act in our industry, and he's one of the quickest onroad drivers you'll find in North America.

HUGE thanks to Keven and Associated for making this possible!

Thanks,
Blake

must have been that awesome race poster design that attracted Hebert/associated

[Blake]

Yeah, I think that's what turned the tide on it... thanks Jody!  I have to say, Associated is pretty awesome with their promotional programs.  They gave us that brand new touring car a few years ago to raffle at Speed Weekend summer, and now they're sending Keven out here.  Very generous.

[haddow]

if associated is bringing a gun to the fight then TeamCRC better send its crew from NY!

[valk]

That just means we have to continue from last year and put on the most professional event we can so they keep sending him. Seems to me we have the makings of the premier canadian onroad event. If we can interest him in coming back next year, who else might show up? Thats exciting.
For me he is just another face that will murder me horribly buuuut good opportunity to see and learn from a pro in action. And. Some competion for kody this year ha.

[Blake]

That just means we have to continue from last year and put on the most professional event we can

Yes, and with everyone's help, that is what we will do.

For me he is just another face that will murder me horribly

Yes, it won't be pretty.
