‘Dizzie’ Dean Murray

Today, Heart of a Champion’s Saturday Salute is ‘Dizzy’ Dean Murray! We owe this man much gratitude, from Steeves Mountain NB! Dizzy was the founder of Wheelspin News in 1963, which was the first ‘all auto racing’ trade paper in North America. Dizzy also spent many days and nights behind the microphone at dozens of stock car and drag strips throughout his adoptive province of Ontario. Dizzy was the founder of the Motion Custom Car Show and instrumental with getting Molson involved in Canadian motorsports, back in the early 70s. Dizzy, you’ve been called a ‘showman’; we call you a dedicated ambassador to all motorsports with the Heart of a Champion. You are sadly missed by all who knew you.
