Pit Crews

Better than Talladega Nights because it is reality! We follow the Hendricks Motorsport #5 Kellogg’s car, driven by Kyle Bush, a 21-year-old up and comer. This team enters the race in 5th place at Michigan, and exits in a very different position.

This is the American Motorcycle Association, the most prestigious road race series in North America. Team Honda’s impressively fast superbike has had good results this year, ridden by a Canadian ex-pat, now living in Las Vegas, Miguel Duhamel, son of the very successful road racer, Yvon Duhamel. The pit crew is hoping this weekend they will be able to continue the charge to first place, but there are some challenges facing them.

This is the most dangerous racing in the world, with boats achieving speeds of up to 260 mph. This series runs at North America’s boating hot spots including Miami and Puerto Rico. The working conditions are hot and difficult, with most of the work having to be on dry dock before the boat can even be placed in the water. The pit crew of Reliable Carriers must not miss a beat; to make an error could easily cost the life of the driver.

Ever heard a stadium filled with 60,000 screaming fans? Supercross riders ride flat out on a demanding circuit of jumps, double jumps, whoops and tabletops. The Montreal Supercross is the biggest show of the series, and the pit crew of Team Blackfoot Suzuki knows the stakes are high, as they battle the tension of maintaining their status as the team to beat.

The beauty of Champ Car is illustrated by the superior team work of its pit crews. At the Molson Indy in Toronto, the crew that makes it happen for Forsythe Racing is a well-oiled machine. With Paul Tracy driving the car, this pit crew has their hands full, literally and emotionally.

Drag racing is over in less than 10 seconds and reaches terrifying land speeds. Fans love it because the race begins during the day, and continues until one team is left standing, no matter how long that takes. Pit crews work continuously throughout the day; the Team Paton Top Fuel pit crew works hard and fast and they know that a single mistake will not only end the day, but will endanger the driver.
