Justin Wilson Should Rebound In Edmonton

If you were watching the same race I was watching last week, you were on the edge of your seat as the yellow flag seemed to come out every other lap.  At one point, the track went green and within a single turn there was a wreck involving team members - how does that happen?

Justin Wilson started on the pole in Toronto and showed the entire world his experience on street courses as he weaved in and out of every turn flawlessly.  The end may not have turned out as well as we may have wanted, but what I saw was a driver who clearly commanded that course.

What should we expect the week at Edmonton?  Justin Wilson should rebound and show his ability to handle tight corners and even tighter passing.  Justin has always excelled in Edmonton and was quoted on his website "I always enjoy the Edmonton race as it’s a fun city with a fun track,” said Justin. “It’s a very challenging venue because of the high speeds and bumpy surface, but it’s also very rewarding when things go your way. I'm glad that there’s only a week between Toronto and Edmonton after the frustration I had in the race and I'm looking forward to getting back in the car and making things right. The team worked well at Toronto and if we do that kind of job again we can have another pole. I think that's an achievable goal as the team had strong cars in Edmonton last year. It goes with out saying that my goal is to win the race for Z-Line Designs and DRR."

With DRR and Avocado Motorsports Marketing behind Justin, I would expect another 'edge of your seat' type race.

Justin Wilson Wins The Pole In Toronto

It was an exciting day in Toronto for the #22 Z-Line Designs car and Justin Wilson.  Wilson will be starting the race from P1 and Avocado Motorsports Marketing couldn't be more proud of Justin and the entire team for their efforts.  Wilson battled Will Power and the Penske team for the first slot.  In fact, he almost broke the minute mark doing so at a speed not seen in a long time - 1:00.2710 sec.  or 104.827mph/lap

With Justin's F1 racing background, going to the streets of cities like Toronto and Edmonton are right up his alley.  Last year Justin finish 5th in Toronto and I would expect to see a good battle up front during the entire race.  If you are interested in learning more about Justin Wilson or want to be involved in motorsports sponsorship, contact us today at Chrism@avocadoamr.com

New IndyCar To De Unveiled Tomorrow


As the night falls and sun rises across the fields of Indiana, race teams brace themselves for a new dawn of IndyCar with the advent of the "New Design". What many Indiana fans are hoping for is a car that provides more horsepower, a sleek new look, and jobs to a state that once built many of America's automobiles.

Having five exciting designs to choose from might sound excessive, but in the end, most experts agree that two, maybe three, of the manufacturers are truly in the running. From our perspective, having a new car that allows fans to get re-energized about IndyCar is what is most important. For our drivers and sponsors, having a vehicle that allows us to compete and to showcase the companies that support this great sport to the consumers is critical.
