When Ike Maier won the recent Victoria Day Weekend PMRA race at the Cayuga Dragway, he became the 15th different winner in 21 Pro Modified Racing Association races held since 2005.
 
Maier also became the sixth different winner at the track, which is the oldest operating drag strip in Canada.
 
While the Pro Modified Racing Association has raced at many tracks throughout Ontario, Quebec, and New York State, the Cayuga Dragway at Toronto Motorsports Park has been one of the mainstays in the Pro Modified series. Carl Spiering of Jordan Station, Ontario, beat Al Billes of Barrie, Ontario to win the very first PMRA race back in May of 2005.

Mike Stawicki of Medina, New York, won the second 2005 event at Cayuga. In 2006, Mark Nielsen of Brantford, Ontario won the season opener at the track, while in 2007, Toronto, Ontario’s Sam Andreacchi and John Russo of Massachusetts took home the gold in PMRA competition.
 
Last year, Cayuga belonged to Stawicki, as the G-Force Race Cars Camaro driver won both rounds at the track.
 
Maier’s recent win was with his new 1963 Corvette-bodied Pro Modified. The Tottenham, Ontario racer had a solid day, qualifying number one in the field, and marching through the ladder with better runs on each pass. Maier said after that crew chief Kirk Silbermann was to be credited with his successful outing, as the team ran straight and true during each match up.
 
The PMRA Pro Modifieds return to Cayuga June 13-14 for the second round in this year’s PMRA tour for the Fifth Annual Family Weekend Spectacular. Teams will have their cars sorted out and ready for the event after their initial showing at Cayuga in May, and there should be some record-breaking laps in store.
 
The PMRA will headline the two-day event, which will include racing in the TNT Super Series.
