Hagersville, Ontario, (Sunday June 2, 2019)- The NASCAR Pinty’s Series took to the track for the second event in the 2019 season and first on an oval on Saturday. While practicing and qualifying took place as scheduled at Jukasa Motor Speedway, rain forced the cancellation of the main event on Saturday evening. NASCAR re-scheduled the 200 lap event for Sunday at 1:30 p.m.

Theetge driver of the #24 Mercedes-Benz St Nicolas/Circuit Acura Chevrolet was happy with the car in practice just wanting a few adjustments.

“I was really happy with our test here at Jukasa and the car was very good today right off the trailer,” said Theetge. “Just some minor changes nothing too much needed to be done.”

Qualifying took place later in the afternoon and Theetge timed in fourth quickest giving him the outside line in row two to start the race.

At the drop of the green flag for the APC 200 Theetge dropped back to fifth and then got into single file line. But it wasn’t long until the #24 entry started moving forward. On lap seventy-three he moved into the lead, a position he would hold onto until pitting for tires under caution on lap ninety-seven. Theetge restarted back in the field and continued to make his way to the front and while running in third place at lap 150, the motor slowed and developed a misfire. He continued to fight to hold onto positions and finished a very disappointing 10th.

“I had an amazing car and team today,” said a very disappointed Theetge. “I love this track and run really great here and have finished second twice – thought today was going to be our day as we ran with the leaders until we had issues. On a positive note though we are going to Autodrome Chaudiere next, a track I know very well and like so we will try to challenge for the win there instead.”
