3rd<\/sup>\u00a0event of the NASCAR Pinty’s series: Autodrome Chaudi\u00e8re<\/strong><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
The #47 WeatherTech\u00a0Canada<\/strong>\/ Groupe Bellemare team is ready to go for the first event on oval track of the year taking place in front of Quebec racing fans. With the same usual determination and perseverance, Louis-Philippe Dumoulin will be present at Autodrome Chaudi\u00e8re\u00a0(Friday June 23th<\/sup> , Vall\u00e9e-Jonction, Qu\u00e9bec), with the goal of climbing to the top of the podium.<\/div>\n

The #47\u00a0WeatherTech\u00a0Canada<\/strong>\/ Groupe Bellemare car is fast, and the Quebec native driver is hoping to find success this weekend. “Last year, we qualified for third place and in 2014, we finished the race in fifth. We’re confident we can lead the race and fight for the win. This being the first race of the season in Quebec, it’s particularly motivating to compete in front of our fans, friends, and family. We’re really eager”, highlights the series’ 2014 champion.<\/div>\n

“CRS Trucking 300”\u00a0: mandatory pit stop halfway through<\/strong><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Much like the Riverside International Speedway track (Antigonish, Nouvelle-\u00c9cosse, 10th<\/sup> event- August 19, 2017), which is considered a near-replica of the famous Bristol Motor Speedway (Bristol, Tennessee, USA), the Autodrome Chaudi\u00e8re is nicknamed “Le petit Bristol Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois” (the little Bristol of Quebec). This asphalted oval track (a quarter mile) is also the most steeply inclined in Quebec.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
The pits are located outside the track, requiring a full stop of the race planned by the series at approximately the 150th<\/sup> lap. The drivers are also authorized to make pit stops at any point during the race; however, it’s an extra challenge as all teams will need to make a simultaneous pit stop for fuel replenishment and the tire change. The cars will then get back into place for the race’s second start.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
See you at Autodrome Chaudi\u00e8re!<\/strong> “This oval track is popular in stock-car in Quebec. It’ll be a good show for partners and fans alike, we have quite a show planned!” shares the driver of the #47 Dodge WeatherTech<\/strong> Canada <\/strong>\/ Groupe Bellemare.<\/div>\n

“THE RACE AGAINST CANCER”
<\/strong>Sign the car of your choice and come romp with us!<\/strong>\u00a0<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Following up on the success of the 2016 fundraiser, Dumoulin Competition renews its vow to support an important cause: the Grand d\u00e9foulement of the Quebec Cancer Foundation. <\/em>The winning formula seen last year will continue to be supported by the Dumoulin brothers, who once again invite fans to come to any race of the NASCAR Pinty’s season to sign their car for the cause.<\/span>\u00a0<\/div>\n
