STOUFFVILLE, ON- July 3, 3014- After earning his first win of the 2014 season at Autodrome Chaudiere, Jason Hathaway is primed to put his #3 Rockstar Energy Drink/HGC Chevrolet in the top 5, as he heads for Circuit ICAR and the Jiffy Lube 100 presented by La Petite Bretonne.
“The days between races feel like an eternity when you’re coming off of a win”, says Hathaway. “This whole team was so pumped up after Autodrome Chaudiere, I think we would have raced the next day if we could have.”
“Everyone loves the atmosphere in the shop when you’re winning”, continues the pilot of the # 3 Rockstar Energy Drink/HGC Chevrolet. “My guys want to keep that rolling every bit as much as I do.”
Of the 3 road courses the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series will tackle this season, Hathaway is quick to note that none are more demanding than Circuit ICAR.
“ICAR is, in my opinion, the toughest road course on the circuit”, offers the veteran. “It’s very technical. It’s a short track road course, which leaves very little room for error. There’s a complete absence of banking, which can make it a little difficult to pass, so a good qualifying effort is paramount”
Hathaway will enter July 6th’s event eager to post a top 5 on the second road course of the season, after tallying 4 NCATS wins on ovals across the country.
“I definitely identify myself as a short track guy, but I don’t feel at all out of place on a road course”, explains Hathaway. “I think this team has the tools to pull off a top 5 posting at ICAR and keep the momentum we stared in Chaudiere.”
