In a racing career that spanned three decades, Biederman was a two-time winner of the River Glade International in New Brunswick, a three-time winner of the Riverside 250 (now known as the IWK 250).

Fans can see the #43 Biederman Nova with Lawrence behind the wheel at Hot Rod Classics races throughout the Maritimes this summer and fall. After Lake Doucette this weekend, they’ll be Riverside International Speedway in James River on September 6.
