Two Speed Motorsports made its official debut at the Motorama Custom Car & Motorsports Expo, where the Hanover, ON-based implement, tool and parts company showcased their line of products designed to make a racer’s life easier, while focusing on affordability.

“Two Speed Motorsports is a Canadian company, making implements and tooling for in the shop or at the race track,” said Joe Chisholm Jr., Two Speed’s director of sales and marketing. “We’re covering the gamut from asphalt to dirt to drag racing and it’s a group of racers who are behind-the-scenes, building a company into the future for racers; there’s a lot of passion behind it.”

One of the products on display at Motorama was a WIDE 5 Wheel Spacer. Chisholm noted that the spacer is half-inch and that they custom machine any size needed, right up to two inches, in increments of step down.

“We get into a lot of spacers and bracketry and different things like that,” said Chisholm. “It’s kind of a mesh between offering products that are off-the-shelf and then, as well, getting into the custom stuff that sometimes you need for custom applications.”

The company took pre-orders for pick-up at the show, with products including Two Speed Setup Stands, Tire Stagger Roller Caddy, TallBoy 14-inch Jack Stands and Two Speed Scale Cart. There were also 4x8

Farrelly’s team will sport Berne Workwear apparel at the track, exhibiting their tag line, “let’s get to work,” by wearing shirts, pants and work gloves being used in the pits all which are available at your local Peavey Mart store.

Away from the track, the team will appear with their APC Series car at six Peavey Mart locations in Ontario, with scheduled stops in Alliston, Peterborough, Owen Sound, Kitchener, Guelph and London. Additional dates and details will follow.

“It’s a chance for customers to take pictures, sit in the car, check out some quality Berne Workwear apparel and just get up close and personal with the team, something that you might not always be able to do at the track,” said Farrelly.

Farrelly also noted the importance of having two companies committed to a racing program; he encourages fans to support the sponsors that keep grassroots motorsports going strong. More information on these brands can be found at www.bernecanada.com and www.peaveymart.com. IT sheets of Lexan and Rubrails available for purchase at the show. One tool that gained some interest at Motorama was Two Speed Motorsports’ custom-made Tech Tool, which is half wrench and half flathead screwdriver. The company gave away 512 of the tools over the three days.

“This is more of a novelty for crew chiefs to keep in their pockets to be able to take off the air cleaner and take off the fasteners when they’re in tech lane,” said Chisholm. “We wanted to create a multitool and something for people to remember us by.”

Two Speed Motorsports used social media to reveal products and gain feedback on current projects throughout their launch this past winter. Products can be purchased through their online shop at www.twospeedmotorsports.com. IT
