The Renegade Racing drag racing team is a Can-Am assault featuring both Canadian and American crew members.

Based from a home shop in St. Albert, Alberta the team which was founded by Canadian Geoff Goodwin, features expert driving from Ken Kraus who is from Montana.

The team currently races a highly competitive Dave Uyhera-chassied machine which features a 2005 Chevrolet Camaro body built by Hairy Glass. The team employs a 526 CID Brad Anderson engine program which includes BA cylinder heads, a PSI supercharger, Hedman headers and a B&J Transmission.

Team owner, Geoff Goodwin, who is involved in the restaurant industry in Central Alberta (including Blarney Stone (South) in Red Deer), has vast activity in drag racing most of his life. After racing gas-powered dragsters and altereds early in his career, he did in fact campaign nitro-powered Funny Cars during the mid to late 1970s, fielding the familiar UAP-sponsored Chevrolet AA/FCs driven by Bob Papernick and Bill Spevacek between 1976 and 1981. After taking a hiatus from racing he remerged on the drag racing scene in 1997 with a General Motors-sponsored Alcohol Funny Car driven by Terry Capp.

Goodwin’s present team, including former 7.50 circuit driver Kraus was first formed in 1999. During his drag racing career Geoff Goodwin was also instrumental in the establishment of Edmonton-area Capital Raceway, building that track in conjunction with Robert Chaput, and serving as track President.

Driver Ken Kraus is the owner and operator of a Speedshop in Great Falls, Montana and is well known for his custom application diesel motor conversion kits.

The Renegade Racing team which is active mostly on the NHRA divisional circuit, did enjoy a strong 2006 racing season which saw them finish 5th in NHRA Division 6 TAFC points and place runner-up during the IHRA’s Rocky Mountain Nationals at Edmonton.

The team receives primary backing from John Edwards and Synoil Fluids (Calgary, AB). It’s highly valued associate sponsor list includes but is not limited to: Pathway Mats (Nisku), Northgate Industries (Edmonton), Ron Hodgson Chevrolet-Olds-GMC (St. Albert), MTS Racing Fuel, Landale Signs & Neon, Prowler Leasing, Twister Piling Inc., and Castrol.
