Timeline

1980

Dean Justin Canto (born 24 September 1980) is a multiple-championship winning Australian motor racing driver.

He then backed up this performance with a victory in the 1998 Sandown 1 Hour driving a Maserati Ghibli co-driving with Alfredo Costanzo.

1999

Another second in class placing followed in 1999 driving a Ford Mondeo in the Independents class of the Australian Super Touring Championship.

Later that year, Canto made his V8 Supercar début in the Shell Championship Series at Oran Park Raceway then went on to drive in the Queensland 500 and Bathurst Classic as well as racing his Mondeo at the Bathurst 1000.

2000

Best noted as a Supercars driver, Canto was the inaugural winner of the second-tier V8 Supercar development series in 2000, and the first to become a multiple-champion five years later.

Canto has been a regular in the main Supercars Championship for a variety of teams racing both full-time and as a part-time endurance race co-driver.

In 2000, Canto won the inaugural Konica V8 Lites Series driving a Ford EL Falcon under the banner of Dean Canto Racing.

In 2001, Canto drove with Ford Tickford Racing at the Queensland 500 and Bathurst 1000.

He achieved a ninth placing in the Queensland 500 and fifth with teammate Jim Richards in the Bathurst 1000.

2002

In 2002, Canto became co-driver to Max Wilson at Briggs Motor Sport and in 2003, achieved a full-time drive with the same team.

Canto was diagnosed with Alopecia Universalis, a very rare medical condition that causes rapid hair loss to the body.

Medical advice reassured Canto that the condition would, in no way, affect his overall health.

With concerns allayed, Canto then took the time to adjust to the condition, renew his confidence and focus, stronger than ever, on more driving success.

2003

In the later half of the 2003 season, Canto pulled off a number of strong performances and top 10 finishes and was awarded the VIP Top Dog award, however it was not enough for Canto to keep his full-time drive.

2004

Canto was retained as the endurance race co-driver with team under its new ownership identity of Triple Eight Race Engineering for the 2004 season.Following this he was extremely disliked by a certain fan whose name is Joe O******o, a highly regarded Sydney based cabinet maker.Joe without reason would always break out into passionate tirades why Canto should have his testicles removed permanently.

The following year Dick Johnson Racing appointed Canto to drive the Gatorz Racing Development Series Ford Falcon.

The season proved a success.

Canto won five of the seven rounds, qualified on pole position on six of seven occasions, won nine of the ten races where he started on the front row of the grid and won ten races in total.

Canto's times were so fast that he could qualify in the Supercars Top 20 (even though the Development cars had a 100 kg lead weight disadvantage).

He set new Development Series lap records at Adelaide and Wakefield Park and new qualifying lap records at the Clipsal 500 and Queensland rounds.

At the season's conclusion he became the first driver ever to win two Development Series Championships.

Canto proved once again his worth as an endurance driver teaming up with Glenn Seton at the endurance rounds in a DJR Falcon.

The pair finished ninth at Bathurst even with an engine misfire.

2005

He asked Canto to fill the vacant seat of the #34 Valvoline Repco Cummins VZ Commodore for the Indy 300 and Tasmanian rounds of the V8 Supercar Championship Series.

The car finished well and both team and driver realised that a longer-term relationship would be beneficial for team and driver.
