David Deacon is a singer-songwriter, poet, former champion race car driver, painter, entrepreneur, and an example of how to live life fully
In his race car days he won the Canadian endurance racing championship in a Porsche RSR, then BMW sponsored him to race the M1 in the States and then to race for their factory team in 1981 at the 24 hours of Le Mans (he was the first native Canadian to do so). Two years later, Canadian Tire sponsored him, Jacques Villeneuve Sr. and Ludwig Heimrath Jr. to race Le Mans again.
His business success came by way of being the general manager of the Porsche division of Volkswagen Canada Inc. and founder of the Rothmans Porsche Challenge Cup Series (1986-1991). He and his brother started Azure Dynamics Corp., a very early developer of hybrid electric technology.
