Team to Take Center Stage as a Feature Attraction at the 2009 Toronto International Spring Motorcycle Show April 4-5.   

(March 18, 2009) Dorchester, ON – Just two and a half weeks from now, on the weekend of April 4th and 5th, Geoff Pollard and the 1500 horsepower Pollard NitroSports Top Fuel Motorcycle he pilots, will take center stage as a featured part of the 2009 Toronto International Spring Motorcycle Show hosted at the International Center.

The event, which will feature new motorcycle dealer displays, product vendors, information resources for new riders, custom bikes and a swap meet component, will attract nearly 20,000 visitors throughout its two day duration. As a feature attraction the Pollard NitroSports team will be included as part of the shows advertising campaign including radio, television and print related exposure, as well as a feature article in the show magazine.

The date of the event combined with the rapidly approaching start of the 2009 racing season did present some obstacles for team co-owner Greg Pollard in planning the teams’ preseason preparations. “It definitely requires some adjustments to our schedule in order to get the bike prepared to race in 2009. We just couldn’t turn down an offer to be included in such a big event, bringing our sponsors a significant amount of exposure they wouldn’t have otherwise received,” said Pollard.

 

 The exposure the team will receive from this event, combined with the appearances it has already made in 2009, will have put it in front of roughly 75,000 automotive and motorcycle enthusiasts without even having turned a wheel in racing competition this season.

On the track since the mid 80’s Geoff Pollard has piloted several types of racing motorcycle to event championships and national elapsed time and speed records. In 1993 Pollard Racing Canada was formed with the introduction of the teams Alcohol Funny Bike. In 1999 Geoff scored a Pro Star national event victory and became the first Canadian to eclipse 200 miles per hour on a motorcycle. After a close battle for the national point’s championship in 2000 the Pollard’s passion to go faster led them to the Top Fuel Motorcycle division.

The Pollard NitroSports team debuted a new Top Fuel Motorcycle in 2008 and proceeded to reset both ends of the Canadian record with a 6.08 elapsed time, 231 miles per hour blast in November of that same year. The team enters 2009 with one goal in mind, eclipse the six second barrier and become the first Canadian team to do so, thus etching their names in the record books even further.
