Brief bios for each of the members of the Class of 2025 follow (in alphabetical order):

Gary Bursey: He started racing in 1964 with a Studebaker when River Glade Speedway was built. He raced a 1956 Pontiac and a 1965 Chevelle. He also raced at Hammond River, Brookside, and Danny’s Speedbowl. He had a brief stay away, but came back when the Mini Stock class became popular. He extended the race tracks to Truro, Halifax, and a special event at Riverside Speedway for a Maritime Mini Stock Championship, which he won. In 1999, he bought his first Legend Car in Charlotte, North Caroline, and started racing in the USA. He raced the Winter Nationals at Orlando Motor Speedway and several other tracks during the winter months. He raced Legends Cars in the summer months at his home tracks in the Maritimes for 16 years. In 2006, he purchased a pro stock car and raced it one year with the Maritime Pro Stock Tour series, while still running the Legends Car – on occasion both cars on the same night. He has raced against some youngsters who went on to become NASCAR Cup Series winners – Chase Elliott, Ryan Blaney, and Bubba Wallace. In 2007, he raced the Thunder Rooster Cars as part of the US Legend Series that raced on road courses. He raced in two different winter nationals at Sebring Florida International Speedway, and Homestead Motor Speedway Road course. He retired in 2018, at 74, due to health issues.

William G. Campbell: Born in Surry, PEI, and moved to Saint John, NB at an early age. Bought his first car, at age 16, a ‘56 Ford. Started racing at Penfield, when it first opened. In 1980, he acquired the infamous 1969, 428 Cobra Jet Fairlane convertible. TCar was built by Ed Markel of New Jersey. It was Bill’s pride and joy; he raced it until he sold it in 2015, and he then retired. Bill and his family traveled over 200K from Eastern Canada and the US for Divisional and National events. In 1982, Bill, with much support from several other teachers started the High School Drag racing program in the Maritimes.

Gerald Hensley Caseley, Sr.: Recognition for the development of Kart racing in the Maritimes. He has participated as a driver, track manager, team owner, kart dealer, engine builder, mechanic, coach and race promoter from 1983 to the present day. From 1993-1997, Gerald’s venue was stock car racing at Oyster Bed Speedway, PEI, where he won a number of races. In 2006, following careers in the Canadian Armed Forces and entrepreneurship, he made racing his full-time livelihood by managing East Coast Karting, the karting track in Moncton, NB. In 2010, he began to organize a kart racing team from the Maritimes to travel to Ontario and Quebec for national-level competition. This provided the Maritime karts with an opportunity to get high-level experience and improve their skills. It also put Maritime karting on the map as local racers were able to compete with the best in the country and win a great many races. Gerald is one of the top-level kart mechanics in North America. He bought the first six Briggs 1.206 engines to Canada, sharing them with other Karters. In 2022, at age 62, he embarked on another venture, starting Cup Kart North America (CKNA), a thriving series in the USA. Bill won many races over his career, but his most proud winning was the Pro Division at Miramichi, back-to-back twice in 1998 – 1999 and 2001 – 2002. Just NOBODY wanted that big black car on the first round.

Gary Elliott: Born in Truro, Gary spent much of his racing career in Ontario. He was 4 or 5 when he made his first connection with stock car racing when his father took the family to a stock car race one Saturday evening. The cars roaring around the oval were seared in his memories. His first chance to feel the excitement in a race car was July 29, 1967, in a Demolition Derby, in a field of 34 cars where his was the last one moving, so he was the winner. When the Mini Stock class was started at Cayuga Speedway, Gary built his first real race car, a Volkswagen, #36. Divisions he has raced in: Demolition Derbies, Mini Stock, Canadian Vintage Modifieds, Limited Late Models, Pro Late Models, OSCARR Modifieds, Pro Stock Tour, Classic Hot Rods. He has raced on 50 different race tracks and has 260 wins. He has been voted “Most Popular Driver” at least eight seasons by the fans. In 2016 he was inducted into the Flamboro Speedway Hall of Fame. In 2023, he was inducted into the Canadian Motorsports Hall of Fame. Quaker State has sponsored Gary for 52 years – the longest driver/corporate sponsor relationship in racing. Gary is still racing.

Roy Greenlaw: Roy started racing in the early 1970s at tracks in New Brunswick. He didn’t stay in the driver’s seat long, turning driving duties over to Ron Gallagher. Roy’s love was in the chassis and in how to make the car go faster. He would travel to River Glade every weekend during the racing season to set up the race cars. He built many cars, but the most famous one was the car he built for Ernie McLean that the late Dale Earnhardt raced at River Glade Speedway. He was one of the top race car guys around. He willingly shared his knowledge with others. For Ernie McLean, Roy was the go to guy when it came to making the rules for the new season to get the rule right and fair. He was an NB Power lineman, so he kept the lights on at River Glade Speedway – if a light went out, the climbing gear came out. When all the poles came down the time of the Ground Hog storm at River Glade Speedway, Roy was the man to find the poles and get them rewired. Today Roy loves going to the tracks and watch his grandson, Drew Greenlaw, compete in the Sportsman class, and he turns on the wrenches sometimes, and you never second-guess him, it’s always the right change.

John Howard: Started Drag Racing in the early 1960s. He was a top driver and a fan favorite – Big John, as he was known to his friends. John did some racing at the Lawrencetown and Chester dirt tracks. When Drag City opened in 1968, John was there. He started stock car racing in the early 1970s, at Atlantic Speedway and raced there for several years. He was a top contender. May 29, 1978, was his most successful night at Riverside Speedway when he won all three races. He was the 1978 Sportsman Class Point Champion at Riverside Speedway beating Sportsman drivers who are also in the Maritime Motorsports Hall of Fame. John was also one of the drivers picked as “The Coca-Cola Driver of the Week.”

Paul Miller: Paul became interested in cars when he was just 12, working at a service station. In 1962, he won the Minto Safe Driving Rodeo and went on to compete in the Maritime Rodeo in New Glasgow, NS. In 1966, he bought his first stock car, racing at New England Speedway, Barkers Point Speedway, and New Maryland Speedway. In 1967, he won the Centennial Race. He drag raced snowmobiles in Lincoln, Harvey, Chipman, Browns Flats, and Fredericton. In 1978, he joined the International Show Car Association, showing his 1969 GTO Pontiac in shows at Fredericton, Saint John, Moncton, and Halifax. He won eleven first-place finishes in 11 shows. In 1980, he drag raced with his ’69 GTO at Pennfield Dragway and Miramichi Dragway. In 1994, he was the first flagman at the New Brunswick International Speedway. In 1995, he got back into racing and won his first seven events. From driving, he went as a crew member on Joe Albert’s car. In 2012, he participated in the Richard Petty Driving School at Riverside International Speedway. He participated in the Driving Experience a second time at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, getting up to 122.2 mph. Of the 73 drivers that day, Paul had the fastest time.

Warren Phillips: Warren grew up around cars in PEI, as his father & uncle started Phillips Auto Sales, when he was only three or four years old. He joined the PEI Antique Car Club in 1984 where he has held multiple positions, presently looking after registrations and accepting new vehicles into the club. He has owned different antique cars over the years, currently a 1966 Ford Mustang 2+2 Fastback & a 1966 Mercury Cyclone GT. He got the bug to go racing when he went to watch a stock car race. He and his brother Wayne bought an ‘82 Lada, #82, and they started racing in 1985. Warren was the pit man and Wayne drove the car; they went on to win a championship with the Lada. The year he graduated from high school, 1976, he and Wayne bought the business from his father and uncle. Through his business he sponsored many drivers that went on to win championships. He would watch the up-and-coming racers and could tell who would make good drivers. Some of the drivers that he sponsored were: Street Stock Doug Mac Ewan, Tyler Gautreau, Tyler MacLean, Allen Sheen, and Pro Stock Robbie Mac Ewan.

Dave Smith: At a young age, he loved cars, playing with Matchbox cars, dinky toys, building car models, slot cars, and soapbox derbies, a go-cart that would go 35 miles per hour, and in high school, he built a T-bucket Hot Rod. After he attended his first road course race, he knew he had to race someday. In 1975, he pit-crewed with Bob MacDonald’s Chevrolet Camaro racing team, and they won the Moosehead 300, a three-hour endurance race. In the late 1970’s he tied for first with his 1977 Z/28 Camaro at the Atlantic Sports Car Club Regional Slalom Championship.

After the sellout success of their first collaborative timepiece, the Monoposto Mobil 1 Edition, the companies return with a new design crafted for motorsports enthusiasts.

Inspired by the Group B rally era, a short-yet-iconic period from 1982-86, the watch draws from a chapter widely regarded as one of motorsports’ most thrilling, according to officials. Group B combined fearless driving with advanced materials and bold engineering, producing the kind of speed and spectacle that helped define modern performance culture. Drivers charged across mountain passes, desert roads and snowy forest stages in machines that continue to shape the way fans view the sport today.

Autodromo’s interpretation of this era blends that history with modern craftsmanship. The Mobil 1 Group B Pegasus Edition features a bimetallic case construction with a lightweight 39mm titanium capsule housed within a stainless steel outer structure. Designed with a unisex fit, the watch offers a versatile wear experience for collectors and fans alike.

The integrated stainless-steel bracelet is finished with a black DLC coating for a sharp, contemporary look, and a high-contrast dial inspired by vintage racing tachometers reinforces the motorsports influence. Each piece arrives in a handcrafted aluminum box, and the bracelet can be easily removed with a spring bar tool for those who prefer to swap in a strap.

Blending Innovation & Passion

Only 70 watches will be available at Autodromo.com (retail value: $995).

“Group B represents a moment in motorsports where innovation and passion were at their highest. It still inspires so much of what the Mobil 1 brand stands for,” says Austin Johansen, North America marketing manager on behalf of the Mobil 1 team. “We loved seeing the response to our first watch, and we are excited to bring fans a second collaboration that celebrates both performance and lifestyle.”

For Autodromo, the Group B silhouette is one of the brand’s most iconic designs, known for its slim profile, precision and early-1980s high-tech aesthetic.

“The Mobil 1 brand sits at the heart of automotive culture, so this collaboration continues to feel purposeful and exciting for us,” says Bradley Price, founder of Autodromo. “This edition is a chance to honor an unforgettable motorsports era and create something that feels fresh, collectible and full of character.”

Nissan plans to double NISMO lineup by 2028

On the Dash:

Nissan plans to expand its global NISMO lineup from five models to 10 by 2028.
The move supports a broader turnaround strategy focused on motorsports and performance vehicles.
U.S. availability remains limited, and not all future NISMO models will reach every market.

Nissan plans to significantly expand its high-performance NISMO lineup as part of a broader turnaround strategy to reverse years of slowing sales and rebuild brand momentum.

The automaker announced this week that it intends to double the number of NISMO models offered globally, growing the lineup from five vehicles today to 10 by 2028. The expansion is tied to Nissan’s ongoing transformation plan, which places renewed emphasis on motorsports, performance engineering and enthusiast-focused products.

NISMO, short for Nissan Motorsports, represents the company’s performance division and delivers upgraded versions of standard models. These vehicles typically feature more powerful engines, sport-tuned suspensions and distinctive exterior styling cues that set them apart from the core lineup.

In the U.S., Nissan currently offers just two NISMO-branded vehicles. The NISMO Z delivers an additional 20 horsepower compared with the standard Z and includes track-focused upgrades such as an oil cooler, performance tires and racing-style seats. The NISMO Armada, a recent addition, produces 35 more horsepower than the standard full-size SUV and includes suspension revisions and exterior enhancements.

While Nissan confirmed the global expansion, it did not specify which vehicles will receive NISMO variants or how many will be sold in the U.S. The company also indicated that not all 10 models are expected to be available in every market.

As part of the strategy, Nissan said it is open to working with external performance partners to broaden the NISMO portfolio. Those collaborations could help accelerate development and expand the brand’s reach without relying solely on in-house resources.

The NISMO push signals a shift in priorities for Nissan as it looks to reconnect with driving enthusiasts and strengthen its brand image. Performance models have historically served as halo vehicles, helping attract showroom traffic and reinforce engineering credibility across the broader lineup.
