The top two drivers from the eight-race competition will join six other drivers at the 2014 National Driving Championship scheduled for Tuesday, August 26 at Red Shores Racetrack and Casino at Charlottetown Driving Park.
Due to other commitments, Sylvain Filion, Randy Waples and Scott Zeron declined invitations. Filion, Waples and Zeron have each represented Canada in previous international driving events.
Invitations were extended to the leading drivers in the province, by wins, in 2013.
Drivers must commit to being available for the World Driving Championship dates, and National Driving Championship dates in order to take part in a Regional Driving Championship.
