In Cayuga, life moves pretty slowly, but not this weekend.

The Ninth Annual Toronto Motorsports Park Nitro Nationals takes off tomorrow.

For the fans and especially the drivers, speed is in their blood, or in the director’s case, his name.

Neale Armstrong is in charge of the biggest race to showcase Canadian drag racing. The best in North America will come and run.

That includes Shockwave, piloted by Chris Darnell. He and his family spend their summer’s crossing the continent showing off the power within their three jet engines.

Actually, Shockwave raced a fighter jet, and won. So far, the truck has reached a top speed of 375 miles per hour, one mile short of the world record.

Handling that much speed, you may as well call him a pilot.
