David Thorndyke and the #67 Thorsons EVT Chevrolet team haven’t been able to compete on the famed road course at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park (CTMP) for two years. That will change this weekend when the team races both Saturday and Sunday in the NASCAR Pinty’s Series.
While Thorndyke and the team are eager to see what they can do there are also a few unknowns facing them. “I haven’t been on the track since a lot of the resurfacing was done” explained Thorndyke. “Some of the cracks or bumps in the track I used for marks will likely be gone, could be interesting” he added.
Thorndyke will have plenty of on track time in the #67 Thorsons EVT Camaro with two races on consecutive days this weekend. “Normally we do the one race Sunday, but now we’ve got the sprint race Saturday too. The team is going to be busy,” stated Thorndyke.
This weekend will mark starts 20 and 21 in NASCAR at CTMP for Thorndyke in the #67 Thorsons EVT Chevy at CTMP. His best finish coming in 2014 with an 11th place result.
“We’re always looking to better ourselves,” said the driver. “Last time out we had some issues with the wrong ratios in the transmission. We’ve got that corrected and we’ve also acquired a new hauler for our team. It will help with logistics on the busy weekend,” he stated.
