The History
To Colin, racing always seemed like a fantasy world, like watching Star Trek on the TV screen... not something he could actually experience himself; or could he? Colin eventually got the the track with his family Don and Mark Campbell drag racing through Western Canada and the Pacific Northwest.
In 2008 Colin completed the circle from fantasy to reality when he signed his first Indycar sponsorship with Alex Tagliani. Alex rejoined the IndyCar series with Conquest Racing.
Along with the growth of CanTorque came sponsorships at higher levels of racing. Through this success, both Colin and Alex, co-founded Tagliani Autosport competing in the NASCAR Pinty’s Series.
In 2020 another dimension was added becoming the factory representatives for CRG, the world’s premiere racing kart manufacturer. Www.kartcrg.ca
