Third generation racer Braydon Arthur of Mission B.C. will be competing in the 2023 Formula Pro USA F4 Winter Series in California with the Doran Motorsports Group with support and sponsorship from Speed-Fanatics Motorsports and IWE/Rear Ends Only (www.speedfanatics.ca www.iwerearendsonly.com)

Ian Wood owner of IWE/Rear Ends Only is delighted for the opportunity to support Braydon in his California racing endeavours in the name of this grandfather “Al Ores.” Al gave Ian the opportunity to learn his trade as his mentor back in the 70’s. Ian himself has raced every year since 1972 when he first met Al, who has encouraged and supported him every year since they met. “If there is one person that I owe for the success of my business it’s Al.”

Braydon is following his family’s path with grandfather, uncle, dad and brother all heavily involved in local motorsports in B.C. and the Pacific Northwest. Braydon is also involved in local karting, formula vee and sedan racing.
