Trevor has driven for many teams over his professional career and in 2005 founded Avion Motorsports to campaign cars in the Canadian NASCAR series for himself, his son Ryley, and other talented drivers.
Trevor is no stranger to the motorsports racing scene. He was an essential part in bringing Area 27 into being, not only co-designing it but engineering and constructing it as well. His eye for detail also extended to his involvement with Avion Motorsports RS1 Racing Series', where he's a regular competitor too! Most recently Trevor took on the role of co-owner at Penticton Speedway, completely revamping its design and structure in 2021.

Ryley began his racing career on an asphalt oval in his hometown of Williams Lake and was a successful driver in the WESCAR Series, a late model oval racing series in BC. He has also raced numerous times in the Canadian NASCAR series including a full season in 2013 where he narrowly missed the Rookie of the Year honors by a single point.
Ryley is a remarkable force to be reckoned with on the racetrack! His impressive five victories at the 2022 Avion Motorsports Cup Series earned him Champion status, and he cemented his legacy by winning triumphantly at Penticton Speedway's inaugural Western Rattler 300. An incredible accomplishment for Canadian Short Track racing, indeed!
Ryley is a driving force in the world of motor sports education, sharing his extensive knowledge and experience with aspiring racers at Area 27 and Penticton Speedway. He has also made an indelible mark on the industry by contributing to the development and testing of the Avion RS1 Race Car, proudly bearing his initials as recognizance for all he's done!

THE HISTORY OF AVION MOTORSPORTS
​
WE ARE ADRENALINE JUNKIES... It's a family affair about the driving experience that began decades ago. As a young man growing up in Oliver B.C., Karl Seibert could have never imagined what that first experience behind the wheel would lead to. Think 1950’s, Think dust, Think noise, Think power, Think speed, Think exhilaration, Think big dreams, Think of an older gentleman now looking back fondly at all that followed his first few laps in a powerful car.
As a young man growing up in the very town that would later be the new home to Area 27, Karl Seibert could have never imagined what that first experience would lead to.
​
His son, Trevor Seibert, carrying the passion forward, rising to the ranks of a winning professional race car driver at an international level and now his grandson, Ryley Seibert, quickly following suit.
​
To return to his hometown to marvel at Trevor’s design & engineering talents, to witness Trevor and Ryley working together on the construction of a world class facility can be summed up in one word... pride, with deep roots in both motorsports and construction.
Join the Avion family and experience our cars and our corporate events.

Al Lebert’s motorsports career started in 1999 at a young age helping a friend clean his race car. His Motorsport career quickly evolved to crewing for a NASCAR team and within a few years he wore every hat in motorsports from team owner, NASCAR Driver, Crew Chief, Race Car Builder and Team Manager.
Al's journey in the world of motorsports further evolved in 2012 with a challenging endeavor: the relocation of Avion Motorsports' NASCAR team to Ottawa, Ontario. Capitalizing on his newfound momentum, in 2015 he was soon presented with an incredible opportunity; co-designing and constructing a brand-new race car concept - dubbed 'RS1'. With 30 custom builds now delivered across Western Canada alone, what started as just another relationship has taken him down some incredibly fast lanes!
