The Maritime Pro Stock Tour was founded in 2001 to provide short track racing in the Maritime provinces and is the successor to the MASCAR Tour. It is now known as the Fort Garry Industries Pro Stock Tour and was previously known as the CARQUEST Pro Stock Tour from 2001 to 2010, the Parts for Trucks Pro Stock Tour from 2011 to 2020, and the East Coast International Pro Stock Tour from 2021 to 2024. The tour is known as one of the best in
Canada and is recognized as one of the healthiest touring series in
North America. Each summer the Maritime Pro Stock Tour draws some of the largest crowds of any summer sport in the Maritimes.
