Maurizio CampolucciTop Sportsman entry to compete with carbureted unleaded-fuel powered Pontiac

WOODBRIDGE, ONTARIO (April 10, 2010) – Since he started drag racing in 1974 with his father’s 1970 GTO, Maurizio (Maurice) Campolucci has always raced Pontiacs.

After a couple of years as crew chief for son Michael Angelo, Maurizio will be behind the wheel of the 2007 GTO, the owner of the world’s fastest naturally-aspirated Pontiac with a traditional engine said he will be ready for the start of the 2010 Quick 32 Sportsman Series presented by NAPA Auto Parts.

“We should be ready for opening day,” said Campolucci, who heads up Stallion Motorsports and the 2007 GTO which took the record at the Grand Bend Motorplex last October with a 7.361-second, 184.57-mph pass. “We’ve been doing some updates to the motor, but that and the tranny are ready to drop in.”
