PIT BOX: NASCAR Pinty’s Series Heads to Alberta to Kick-Off Western Swing

The NASCAR Pinty’s Series will now head to Western Canada for the first of three races across the provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan.

First, the series will visit the tight 1/4-mile bull-ring in Wetaskiwin, AB, Edmonton International Raceway.

Last year, Marc-Antoine Camirand and Kevin Lacroix battled it out for the 300 laps, with Camirand bringing home the checkered flag.

Andrew Ranger, Alex Tagliani, L.P. Dumoulin are the only other active drivers that have won at the track. Ranger is the only one to ever win twice.

All series races will stream live on TSN’s new subscription based, streaming platform, TSN+ and FloRacing in the United States. Tape-delay broadcasts will air on TSN and RDS2 in Canada.
