Stouffville, Ontario- August 7, 2014- Veteran Jason Hathaway will return to NASCAR Canadian Tire Series presented by Mobil 1 competition this Sunday, August 10th at the ‘JuliaWine.com Le 50 Tours’ at Circuit de Trois-Rivieres.
Hathaway had struggled on the tricky street course in years past, but a 4th place finish at the event in 2013 has the short track specialist approaching the GP3R with renewed vigor.
“Trois-Rivieres is one of the more fun road courses on the schedule”, said Hathaway. “Street courses are always such a blast because there’s so little room for error. If you don’t hit your marks every lap, you can find yourself in trouble in a hurry. It’s that demanding.”
“Up until last season, we hadn’t had a lot of luck at Trois-Rivieres”, continued the veteran, “but we turned it around last year, and we’re excited to build on that and see if we can’t improve even more”
The driver of the No. 3 Princess Auto/Rockstar Energy Drink Chevrolet will enter Round 7 of the Series 5th in NCATS points, just 6 markers back of the top-3.
“This is a big weekend for anyone in the championship hunt”, explained Hathaway. “The top-5 are so close right now, you can’t afford to have a bad race. We can make up a lot of ground in the championship hunt if we have a strong race at Trois-Rivieres, which is exactly what we intend on doing.”
T3R/ EHR is proud to be partnered with Pro.Point by Princess Auto, Rockstar Energy Drink, The Harman Group, Williamson’s GM & Dodge, Praxair, Mobil 1, Fast Eddie Racewear, Barn Door Brewing Company and Choko Motorsports.
