About Us

We're half way through the 2010 season and we're happy to be back on the track having another great year. We've invested in additional equipment, technology and training and continue moving forward towards competition. We've added additional tracks to our schedule this year, such as Watkins Glen, and will continue to add to the list. Have a look at the Team Schedule for additional details on where 2010 will take us.

Looking back over the years, we started out simply as Chevrolet Corvette enthusiasts. We decided to make the jump into competitive motorsports after consulting with several race teams, consultants, logging many hours on Ontario tracks, and attending high performance driving schools.

Many people race for many different reasons. Some are born into racing families, where the sport is simply passed down to them as a matter of tradition, while others are born with competition in their blood. Some race for a living and are driven by fame and fortune and for some, like the team at Christiansen Racing, it is a combination of things. For us, it is a passion for a sport that is unlike any other!

I believe that once racing is in your blood it never leaves. We feel extremely lucky that we are participating in something that we truly enjoy. I only wish I had gotten involved earlier. Bjorn Christiansen, however, the youngest on the team, is enjoying success in karting with repeated podium finishes.

We have a long road ahead of us, however, our goal is to be competing locally and in North American events. With a passion for road course and rally racing, the team is setting their sights on multi-year runs in both Club and Regional racing, as well as examining the potential for putting a rally team together for Targa Newfoundland.

Thanks to the folks at the Wilson Niblett dealership for assisting us in going down this path and putting us in touch with some key organizations. Also, many thanks to the folks at Engineered Automotive for track side support and instruction, and of course, special thanks to John Powell and Gloria at Powell Motorsport and Devon and Dave at the Powell RaceShop for their help on and off the track!

Regards,

Mark Christiansen
