I can’t wait to welcome Veronica into the Motorplex, where she can start to learn all aspects of the Speedway and venue operations from our team”– Gavin Migro, Perth Motorplex General Manager
McCann brings with her a professional skill set developed over 15 years in the automotive and industrial safety sectors, where she led multiple high-performing sales teams to success. With strengths in strategic planning, customer service management, and process optimization, McCann combines her professional acumen with a motorsports career spanning more than 25 years.

Over the years, she has earned several podium finishes in the SEG Sprintcar Series (now known as the Maddington Toyota Sprintcar Series) and secured a Perth Motorplex Track Championship. McCann also briefly pursued a career in IndyCar racing in the USA before returning to Western Australia, where she continues to compete in the Pro Dirt Series and Late Model Track Championships at Perth Motorplex. She has also served as General Manager of Late Model Racing Western Australia (LMRWA) and Vice President of Late Models Australia (LMA).
“I’m really excited to take on this new role, combining my passion for speedway racing and my professional experience is something many people can only dream of. I can’t wait to join the award-winning Motorplex team and help bring more incredible speedway events to the fans and competitors” – Veronica McCann
