Only two races remain in the hunt for the 2022 NASCAR Pinty’s championship, with drivers heading to the final road course of the year this weekend at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park for round twelve.
When the series visited the 2.459-mile road course back in May of 2022, Marc-Antoine Camirand and Andrew Ranger came out the gates wicked fast, but both suffered mechanical issues, allowing Kevin Lacroix to take the reins and dominate the race.
The eBay Motors 200 ended with Gary Klutt taking the lead from Lacroix on a NASCAR Overtime restart, but the No. 74 Dodge nosed his way under the No. 59 of Klutt in the final corners for his sixth win at CTMP.
Camirand firmly holds onto the points lead, 23 over D.J. Kennington and will look to widen that gap this weekend.
Meanwhile, L.P. Dumoulin, Ranger, Klutt, Alex Tagliani are also looking for a win at CTMP this weekend.
