Spiering will be one of the crowd favorites as Eaton presents the “Fast and Furious on the Fraser” Pro Modified event in British Columbia at Mission Dragway June 30 – July 1 prior to the fifth Annual CARS RV, Marine & Motorsports Rocky Mountain Nationals presented by Torco Race Fuels, race four of the 11-event 2007 IHRA Knoll-Gas Nitro Jam™ Drag Racing Series July 6-8 in Edmonton, Alberta.
