  • American Road Courses
    American Road Courses Road America Watkins Glen Meadowdale Laguna Seca Westwood Riverside Mid Ohio Every Road Course Daytona of Past and Present in the United States Mosport and Canada Sebring Barber Miller Rob Semmeling American Road Courses Page 2 Introduction This file lists all permanentpaved road courses - i.e. non-oval racing circuits - in the United States and Canada. In most cases, 'permanent' is synonymous with 'purpose-built'. However, some circuits were not purpose-built but actually started out as tempo- rary courses. Florida's Sebring International Raceway, for example, was originally a temporary airfield course, laid out over the runways of Hendricks Field. Likewise, Portland International Raceway in Oregon evolved from a street course. Both circuits are nowadays permanent facilities. The starting point for this list was the 2003 edition of Allan Brown's book "A History of America's Speedways: Past & Present". This is an indispensable reference work for which Allan cannot be praised enough. However, in the book the road courses are a bit buried between the vast number of ovals. Listing them separately gives a better overview. Also, I found the information in the book is not always accurate. It is an excellent basis for further research but the data should be treated with great care. I have done my best to present the most correct and accurate info in this file, although there may well be errors here and there. In general, there are three main types of American road courses. The most interesting are the 'pure' road courses which were built specifically for road racing.

  • Louis-Philippe Dumoulin Crowned 2014 Champion of the Nascar Canadian Tire Series
    PRESS RELEASE (For Immediate Release) LOUIS-PHILIPPE DUMOULIN CROWNED 2014 CHAMPION OF THE NASCAR CANADIAN TIRE SERIES Kawartha (Fraserville, Ontario), September 21, 2014 – After years of perseverance and passion, it is with great pride and a feeling of accomplishment that Dumoulin Competition, Louis-Philippe Dumoulin, Mario Gosselin, crew chief, King Autosport and the #47 WeatherTech Canada / Bellemare Group team have won the ultimate title of 2014 champions in the Nascar Canadian Tire series yesterday during the final event of the season which occurred on the Kawartha Raceway circuit in Fraserville, Ontario. The battle between the Trois-Rivières native and J.R. Fitzpatrick was relentless, in a race that was brilliantly won by Fitzpatrick himself. “We have used strategy for the championship. The car was not as fast as we would have hoped during the qualifying, but our objective was to finish strong on the leader’s lap in order to secure our place,” explains Mario Gosselin, crew chief of the #47 WeatherTech Canada / Bellemare Group team. This title has particular value for us all: The NASCAR Canadian Tire series is very competitive and excellent drivers have been participating in it full time for several years. Furthermore in 2014, Dumoulin Competition has made the choice to develop a partnership with a brand new prep team in King Autosport. As early as the first few events, Mario Gosselin and the #47 WeatherTech Canada / Bellemare Group team have demonstrated their potential with as much consistency in the results as in the chemistry of the team which was established very quickly. “We’ve got it, we’re the champions!” exclaims an enthused Louis-Philippe Dumoulin.

  • Remarkable Rise for Jean-François Dumoulin Third Round of the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series Innisfil
    PRESS RELEASE (For Immediate Release) Remarkable rise for Jean-François Dumoulin Third round of the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series Innisfil (Ontario, Canada) June 21, 2015 – On the oval track of Sunset Speedway, Jean-François Dumoulin showed once again he could battle with leaders of the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series. Sixteenth on the starting grid, the driver of the Bernier Crépeau/Groupe Bellemare/MIA #04 crossed the finish lane in fifth place with agility and consistency yesterday. This top-5 finish gives Jean-François Dumoulin fifth place in series standings, tied with veteran driver D.J. Kennington. After results of last race at Autodrome Chaudière last week (June 13th 2015), crew chiefs Mario Gosselin, #47 WeatherTech Canada / Groupe Bellemare, and Éric Laperle have shared information to adapt Bernier Crépeau/Groupe Bellemare/MIA #04 car set ups to Jean-François Dumoulin driving style on oval tracks. “We are very happy that we made different car adjustments and that it has paid off. The crew worked very hard, and almost all set ups have been changed. JF has understood some specificities about driving on an oval track and I’m very happy with his result“, explained with enthusiasm crew chief Éric Laperle. “JF was on fire and so was the team. During 280 laps on green, his driving was consistent and we followed our plan to the letter”, said spotter Dave Trodechaud. Driver Jean-François Dumoulin was satisfied when we met him after the 300-lap race, which was slowed by only two cautions (21 laps/300). “The car performed very well, it was foreseeable and I was comfortable with slow traffic, as much on the inside groove than on the outside.

  • Sunset Speedway Innisfil
    PRESS RELEASE (For Immediate Release) LOUIS-PHILIPPE DUMOULIN KEEPS PATIENCE AGAINST IMPONDERABLES Third race of the season: Sunset Speedway Innisfil (Ontario, Canada), June 21, 2015– Behind the wheel of the WeatherTech Canada / Groupe Bellemare #47 Dodge, Louis-Philippe Dumoulin had to face some imponderables, yesterday, for the inaugural race on Sunset Speedway oval track. Seventh on the starting grid, the Quebecer was in good position to race against the leading pack, defending his place with determination. After a relentless fight, the driver of the WeatherTech Canada / Groupe Bellemare #47 Dodge crossed the finish line in tenth place, scoring precious championship points, 6th in the drivers’ standings. Last week incident at Autodrome Chaudière forced WeatherTech Canada / Groupe Bellemare #47 crew members to work tirelessly during the past week to prepare the car on time for Sunset Speedway. Some adjustments would have had to be made before the race, and a long green flag sequence for almost 280 laps forced Louis-Philippe Dumoulin to use strategy to struggle with a car that didn’t respond. “Facing such conditions like we met yesterday, we had to modify our strategy. We were hoping for a caution to let us improve the car set-up that wasn’t appropriate at all. With only two yellow flags, our goal was to finish the race and gain as much championship points as possible”, explains Louis-Philippe Dumoulin. The next race will be at Circuit ICAR of Mirabel, on July 4th and 5th. This road course equals success for the 2014 NASCAR Canadian Tire Series champion, as he finished twice on the podium and scored four top-5 in a row.

    But going forward, you’ll have to clarify which Steckly you’re referring to, when you hear that surname. Scott’s son, Kyle, is coming into his own on the Ontario racing scene, and it likely won’t be too long before you see his name on an entry list for a NASCAR Pinty’s Series race. Just a few weeks after posting some top finishes in Pro Late Model action at Flamboro Speedway – and winning his first career race in the div- ision – Kyle Steckly scored a perfect night in Round 2 of the Grisdale Triple Crown, at the Millgrove, ON paved oval. Known as a tight and challenging Steckly (r) in Flamboro’s Qwick Wick Victory Lane with Qwick Wick President Dave Lloyd. Photo by Peter Anderson track, Steckly posted the fastest lap KYLE STECKLY (Milverton, ON) during time trials, putting him on the pole for August 7 race, in front of a field jammed with quality racers. Since 1992, fans of Canadian stock car racing have likely thought Steckly’s No. 24 Qwick Wick Camaro car led the entire race, of five-time NASCAR Pinty’s Series champion Scott Steckly when from the drop of the green until being the first to pass by the check- they heard the name “Steckly” mentioned, in relation to short track ered flag.

The Roxton Pond, Quebec native won Sunday’s Jiffy Lube 100 presented by Snap-on for the second year in a row. Early in Saturday qualifying, Ranger set the tone for the second of four road-course events this season. At the wheel of his No. 27 La Cite De Mirabel Inc. Dodge, he smashed the track record, taking the pole position for the 30-lap race at the Mirabel, Quebec airport circuit. The two-time NASCAR Canadian Tire Series champion drove his Dodge across the finish line first on Sunday, followed by two more Dodge drivers: Scott Steckly in the No. 22 Canadian Tire Dodge and L.P. Dumoulin in the No. 47 WeatherTech Canada/Bellemare Dodge. “It’s a pretty technical track with lots of tight turns,” said Ranger. “You really have to hit your marks to be fast… The support from my home fans drives me to success.” Of the Top 10 finishers at Circuit ICAR on Sunday, eight were Dodge cars, including the top three finishers.

  • Remarquable Remontée Pour Jean-François Dumoulin Troisième Manche De La Série NASCAR Canadian Tire
    COMMUNIQUÉ DE PRESSE (Pour diffusion immédiate) Remarquable remontée pour Jean-François Dumoulin Troisième manche de la Série NASCAR Canadian Tire Innisfil (Ontario, Canada) 21 juin 2015 – Sur le circuit ovale de Sunset Speedway, Jean-François Dumoulin a de nouveau démontré qu’il peut se mesurer aux leaders de la série NASCAR Canadian Tire. Seizième sur la grille de départ, c’est avec agilité et constance que le pilote de la Dodge n°04 Bernier Crépeau / Groupe Bellemare / MIA a croisé le fil d’arrivée en 5e position hier. Ce top-5 confère à Jean-François Dumoulin la cinquième place au classement général, exæquo avec le vétéran D.J. Kennington. Faisant suite aux résultats de la course à l’Autodrome Chaudière (13 juin 2015), des échanges ont eu lieu entre les deux chefs d’équipe Mario Gosselin, n°47 WeatherTech Canada / Groupe Bellemare, et Éric Laperle afin d’ajuster le bolide n°04 Bernier Crépeau / Groupe Bellemare / MIA au type de pilotage de Jean-François Dumoulin sur circuit ovale. « Nous sommes vraiment contents, nous avons opté pour des ajustements différents et cela a été payant. Les gars ont travaillé fort, presque tous les réglages ont été modifiés. JF a compris davantage les subtilités d’un ovale et je suis très content de sa performance », explique avec enthousiasme le chef d’équipe Éric Laperle. « JF était en feu, l’équipe aussi, pendant les 280 tours sur drapeau vert son pilotage était constant et nous avons suivi notre plan de match à la lettre », ajoute l’éclaireur Dave Trodéchaud. C’est un pilote satisfait, que nous avons rencontré après cette épreuve de 300 tours ponctuée seulement de deux neutralisations (21 tours/300).

Kennington by .342 seconds at the Riverside International Speedway in Antigonish, N.S. In a race that was slowed due to caution six times for a total of 52 laps and the lead changing hands seven times among six drivers, just four cars were on the lead lap at 279 that included the Dodge trio of Hathaway, Kennington and Steckly that battled it out side-by-side during the final laps. “That was good hard racing down the stretch there with (Steckly),” Hathaway said. “To come out here and beat out Steckly and Kennington is something. There’s so much behind the scenes stuff to winning these race that people don’t even really know. You have to have your ducks in a row to go out and beat those two guys.” The victory was the second of his career for Hathaway and broke a 59-race winless streak that stretched back to 2008 when he won the season finale at Kawartha Speedway in Peterborough, Ont.
