Maxime Plante is living his dream
La version française ici Recently, at Autodrome Granby, I had the pleasure of photographing Maxime Plante as he received pre-race advice from his childhood hero and the Super DIRTcar champion , Matt Shepard. Shortly after the clocked times, the young pilot from St-Hyacinthe crossed the pit from one end to the other and presented himself to Matt Sheppard. Sheppard greeted Max and the two began to exchange ideas about the track and their car settings.

He explained to Matt that he had dreamed of competing against him since he was a young boy. The "five-times" champion put his hand on Max's shoulder and replied, "You did it, you're here and tonight it's going to happen." Max looked at Matt and he smiled at his dream come true.
