Saint-Eustache, Quebec - The NAPA Racing team will return to ICAR to compete in the Evirum 100, a 43-lap race. Kevin Lacroix, who is currently 3rd in the championship after his retirement from the Grand Prix de Trois-Rivières, now sits 36 points behind the leader.
"The retirement at the GP3R weighed heavily on the points standings," said Lacroix, driver of the #74 NAPA Racing/Quick Strut car. "Marc-Antoine Camirand is now comfortably in the lead. He would need to have bad luck in all the remaining races in order for me to have a chance at the title."
Determined to win as many races as possible, Kevin Lacroix is entering this final stretch of the NASCAR Canada season. ICAR is a track he knows very well, as the Mirabel circuit is practically in his backyard.
"We frequently test at ICAR; it’s a small track that I really like," explained Lacroix. He is one of the drivers with the most victories on the tarmac of the former Mirabel airport, with four wins to his name. He was the winner in 2015, 2017, 2021, and 2022.
Last year, he was unable to finish the race due to a mechanical issue with the radiator. However, he had qualified in 5th place and had moved up to 3rd before his retirement.
He continued by stating; "It's time to get back to victory lane; I'm eager to deliver a positive win for my team."
The start of the Evirum 100 will be at 5:30 PM and will also be broadcast on the TSN+ app and FloRacing.com.
