Aikman brings over 20 years of experience at the speedway, having started in 2002 selling race fuel before becoming a race official. Since 2005, he has served as flagman and occasionally filled in as race director for both the main track and DIRT Raceway Park events.

As a bilingual Cornwall resident and passionate race fan, Aikman's transition should be seamless with the returning team of officials. This stability is particularly important as the speedway moves under DIRTcar sanctioning next summer.

Joel Doiron, who served as race director since 2017 and is a former 358-Modified track champion, is stepping down to focus on personal projects. The Lavergne family has expressed their gratitude for his seven years of dedicated service.

The speedway management is currently finalizing the 2025 racing calendar, with several key dates already confirmed and more announcements expected after the holiday season.
