1ière DE LA TRIPLE COURONNE PASS AUTOBUS LA QUÉBÉCOISRE

                 

AUTODROME CHAUDIÈRE 2012

SÉRIE PASS NORTH

UN NOUVEAU DÉCOR

Plus que quelques heures avant la tombée officielle du drapeau vert tant attendu à Vallée-Jonction dans un tout nouveau décor pour cette première confrontation Pass Canada États-Unis en sol québécois.

Tout au long de la Nouvelle-Angleterre et des provinces canadiennes, les amateurs de course se sont souvent questionnés à savoir  quel pays avait les meilleurs coureurs sur courte piste en Amérique du Nord, les États-Unis ou le Canada?  En 2013, l’Autodrome Chaudière de  Vallée-Jonction pourrait être l'année où la question sera finalement répondue.

 


La première étape de la Triple Couronne Autobus La Québécoise sera présenté SAMEDI  le 18 MAI à compter de 18h30 dans le cadre du FRAMECO PASS 150. En plus des bourses régulières à chaque programme, cette Triple Couronne Autobus La Québécoise a son fonds de points total de 30,000 $  remis aux 15 meilleurs pilotes qui s'affronteront  dans les trois épreuves, pour un grand total de 135,000$.  De plus, ces trois courses à l'Autodrome Chaudière comptent pour le Championnat PASS North Super Late Model.

Samedi 18h30, LE FRAMECO 150 sera le premier événement organisé à l'Autodrome Chaudière depuis l’achat de la piste par les nouveaux propriétaires Dany Lagacé et Kevin Roberge. «Avec plus de ½ million d’investissement, les amateurs de course automobile vont constater le réaménagement complet du site. Les nouvelles estrades et lumières, une passerelle de plus de 300 pieds, une nouvelle tour du signaleur et d’autres réalisations en devenir attendent tous les spectateurs en ce samedi 18 mai, 18h30», de dire Dany Lagacé et Kevin Roberge.

Plusieurs des meilleurs coureurs du Canada dont les québécois Martin Latulippe, Alexandre Gingras, Patrick Laperle, Kevin Roberge, Marc André Cliché, Jean-François Déry, Karl Allard et Donald Theetge seront sur place. Matt Matheson, Lonnie Sommerville et Matt Harris du Nouveau-Brunswick et l’ontarien Brandon Watson seront en concurrence  avec d'autres pilotes québécois comme Steve Côté, Alex Labbé et Eric St-Gelais.


Le contingent américain sera dirigé par Johnny Clark et Ben Rowe.  Le champion de l'an dernier, Travis Benjamin, largement considéré comme l'un des meilleurs quand il s'agit de courses au Canada se joint à eux. Grâce à deux courses jusqu'ici, Joey Doiron, Cassius Clark, et DJ Shaw ont dominé les manchettes et tenteront de poursuivre sur leur lancée. Trevor Sanborn, Derek Ramstrom, Kelly Moore, Aaron Ricker, Scott Mulkern, et Richie Dearborn regardent également pour une victoire en début de saison. Les pilotes du Maine Michael Landry, Corey Bubar, Curtis Gerry, et le Tchad Dow seront également de la partie.

Avec aux alentours de 30 pilotes en piste, les qualifications net consolations si nécessaire seront d’une importance capitale.

Au même programme la Série Procam Super Truck fait un retour à l’Autodrome Chaudière et pour leur 1ière sortie de la saison, le sympathique et toujours souriant Marc Bégin de St-Philibert fait un retour en piste. Il sera au volant de la voiture #40.

Les classes Kamikaze Oricom, Sport Compacte Oricom et Limité FM 101.3 complètent cette ouverture tant attendue.

Pour ce FRAMECO 150 DE SAMEDI 18 MAI,  les puits ouvrent à 10h30 pour les voitures PASS, à 11h15 pour les Procam Super Truck et à 12h00 pour les classes locales. Les pratiques débutent à 13h15 par les voitures PASS.

Le public est admis dans les estrades à compter de 13h00. Les semi finales des classes locales débutent à 17h45 et le programme principale à 18h30.

En cas de mauvaises températures, remis au lendemain dimanche 19 mai, 13h00.

HUGO VANNINI EST PRÊT POUR LE DÉUT DE SAISON

Pour diffusion immédiate

Série Nascar Canadian Tire

(Repentigny, QC) –Après avoir terminé au troisième rang en ce qui concerne le classement des pilotes québécois en 2012 après Louis-Philippe Dumoulin et Martin Roy et 15e au nombre des 59 pilotes qui ont pris part à au moins une course,, Hugo Vannini, le pilote de l’équipe VTi Motorsports est prêt pour entamer une autre saison dans la prestigieuse série NASCAR Canadian Tire. Le lever de rideau de ce championnat canadien aura lieu sur le circuit routier de la piste Canadian Tire Motorsport Park en Ontario, dimanche prochain.

 

Le clan Vannini a profité d’une journée d’essais libres à ce tracé ontarien à la fin d’avril afin de vérifier tout le travail effectué sur les deux voitures de l’équipe durant la saison hivernale.

« Nous n’étions pas là pour tenter d’améliorer le record du tour de piste, mais bien pour vérifier notre travail de l’hiver dernier. Nous avons obtenu des chronos très respectables lors de cette journée et on a décelé quelques points à corriger, dont certains ajustements» de dire celui qui est un pilote très apprécié des responsables de la série.

Il a poursuivi en ces termes : « Cette saison, toute l’équipe aimerait bien se retrouver parmi les dix premiers au cumulatif de la série. Il ne faut pas se leurrer et rêver à un podium. Nous n’avons pas les ressources matérielles et financières des équipes de pointe et il est clair que pour les membres de VTI Motorsports que nous devons être réalistes. Cette série a besoin d’équipes comme nous pour survivre. Çà prend des premiers, mais aussi de véritables amants de cette discipline pour former un peloton relevé et professionnel. L’équipe est composée de passionnés de cette discipline et tant que nous éprouvons du plaisir à faire ce que nous faisons, nous serons là de dire», Hugo

 

 

Tout comme l’an dernier, avec un budget privé et limité, on vise une participation à neuf épreuves du championnat. Pour l’instant, il n’est pas question d’aller dans l’Ouest du Canada, car les déplacements sont très onéreux. Chez VTI Motorsports, on dépense beaucoup d’argent personnel pour assouvir cette passion et il est clair que l’on mérite les encouragements des amateurs de cette série Canadian Tire.

For more information, visit motorsports.RPMEnginesVT.com 
or E-mail GWCNewEngland@gmail.com



THE STORY


GEORGIA, Vt. – Eight-time ACT Late Model Tour champion Brian Hoar of Williston, Vt., attempts to add to his impressive Airborne Speedway resume when the ACT Late Model Tour heads to the Airborne 100 in Plattsburgh, N.Y., on Saturday, May 18. Hoar has a series-record seven career wins at a track where he began his racing career in weekly competition, and the driver of the RPM Motorsports No. 37 GossCars.com Dodge Charger has 38 career ACT victories in all. This marks Hoar's final Tour race before he plans to take a break from racing until later this summer as the veteran driver scales back to a part-time schedule in 2013.


THE FACTS

WHO: Brian Hoar, Williston, Vt.
TEAM: RPM Motorsports No. 37 GossCars.com Dodge Charger
CREW CHIEF: Rick Paya, Georgia, Vt.
BEST CAREER AIRBORNE SPEEDWAY FINISH: 1st (7 times, most recently July 2010)
LAST RACE AT AIRBORNE SPEEDWAY: 4th (October 2012)
WHAT: ACT Late Model Tour Airborne 100
WHERE: Airborne Speedway, Plattsburgh, N.Y. (.500-mile oval)
WHEN: Saturday, May 18 – 12 noon, practice; 5 p.m., qualifying; 8 p.m., race
ACT Late Model Tour
LAST RACE: May 5, Spring Green 113, Devil's Bowl Speedway, West Haven, Vt. (2nd) 
NEXT RACE: June 2, Riverside 150, Riverside Speedway, Groveton, N.H. (.25-mile oval)
CURRENT POINTS POSITION: 2nd


DID YOU KNOW?

  • Brian Hoar holds the ACT Late Model Tour record for championships (8) and wins (38).

  • RPM Motorsports will run a part-time schedule in 2013, including the first four ACT Late Model Tour events of the season and then select Late Model events throughout the summer and fall.

  • Brian Hoar has won back-to-back ACT Late Model Tour races seven times in his career, most recently taking consecutive events at Riverside Speedway in St. Croix, Que., and Thunder Road International Speedbowl in Barre, Vt., on Aug. 25 and September 2 of 2012.

  • Brian Hoar plans to make a second consecutive appearance in the 25th anniversary of the Vermont City Marathon in Burlington, Vt., this coming Memorial Day weekend.


WHAT THEY ARE SAYING


BRIAN HOAR, Driver of the RPM Motorsports No. 37 GossCars.com Dodge Charger, On what has led to his Airborne Speedway success over the years: "It certainly doesn't hurt that I started out racing there, no question. I'm sure racing there for many years definitely helped. I won the track championship in 1999, and I spent a lot of Saturday nights at that place.

"When they paved it (in 2010), it changed things a little bit. It hasn't really changed the configuration if you were to look at the track from above, but the way you run the lines through the corners always changes a little bit with fresh pavement. But it's not a lot – it's still the same Airborne that it's been last 20 years. It's like any other race track – it's got its own little parts that are unique, but it's still go fast, turn left."

On if he views this weekend as a "test" for the inaugural International 500 at Airborne Speedway in July: "Yeah, absolutely. Because this is our one opportunity to run against other guys and see how we stack up against them, yeah this is it. This is the chance to get ready (for the International 500).

"It will be interesting to see who runs well there this weekend. Typically, the guys who run well there – Wayne (Helliwell) has been fast there, won the race last year that won the championship – are the guys that are fast everywhere. The usual suspects are going to be the same."

On if Airborne races differently in the spring than it does in the summer or fall: "Not a lot. It's probably more consistent than some tracks we go to. It's not as temperamental with weather changes as some places, like Thunder Road or some others. We are going to go through it a little bit this weekend – it will be warm in the afternoon when we first get started, then cool off a bit at night for the race.

"I'm looking forward to going racing this weekend. We'll see what happens from there."


UP NEXT

The ACT Late Model Tour takes a weekend off before returning to action with the Riverside 150 at Riverside Speedway in Groveton, N.H., on Sunday, June 2.

Two months ago, two weeks ago, we were getting ready for some of the ACT (Late Model Tour_ races, but now it's time to starting thinking about this.

"This weekend is not about finishing first, it's about finishing and finishing toward the front and starting our chase for the championship. We definitely have to play it smart and make sure we get the most out of it. It definitely makes things more interesting."

On her mindset heading into Canaan's regular season: "This weekend, I have to really prepare myself. This could make or break my championship dream. I really have to go in and focus on having a great run. The reason we really want to run Canaan again is to have a shot at that championship."

On why the NASCAR championship at Canaan is so important to her: "This year is definitely about learning as much as I can, but one of the reasons we're going back to Canaan is a big one. It's to be able to contend for the championship.

Les pilotes américains qui participent au ALL STARS TOUR sont attendus.

Nous avons présentement 10 voitures inscrites pour débuter le championnat, toutefois avec l'engouement de la nouvelle piste, plusieurs candidats se sont manifesté, autant en Slingshot qu'en Go-Kart.

Nous prévoyons une expansion fulgurante dès cette année.
