In the inaugural season of the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series Ron Beauchamp Jr. placed the #60 Mopar Parts Dodge on the podium at the challenging Mosport Raceway at the season finale at Kawartha Speedway. However the team experienced mixed results through the middle part of the season. "Those trouble spots in the middle of the year are what we want to avoid this season," said driver Ron Beauchamp Jr.
Knowing the team had the potential to be up front every race weekend is what motivates the team to be digging in this hard so far in advance of the season opener. "We've got good equipment," said Beauchamp. "Unfortunately a few times last season we had a mechanical problem take us out of competition, usually when we were running up in the top-ten. That's frustrating. We're going over all of our equipment with a fine tooth comb to improve our reliability."
In its first season of operation the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series brought stock car racing excitement from coast to coast in Canada. This year's schedule expands to 13 events with a new race added at the Autodrome St. Eustache. "I've run at this track before," said Beauchamp. "A lot of guys get frustrated their but I've done well in the past winning and finishing on the podium a couple of times. We expect to have the same kind of success this year."
The second season of the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series will open competition on May 24th at Cayuga Speedway. The 2008 schedule will consist of 13 races on oval tracks, temporary street circuits and road courses. All races will once again be broadcast on TSN.
