An action-packed event saw an important win of one driver in their quest for the NASCAR Canada crown.

 

Circuit ICAR held The Evirum 100 on Saturday with a 24 car field and eyes focused on the championship.

 

Andrew Ranger lead them to the green flag ahead of Kevin Lacroix, with points leader Marc-Antoine Camirand starting in fifth.

 

The two front row starters were the ones duking it out for the win all race long.

 

Lacroix made his move early and took command of things, with Ranger biding his time, striking to retake the lead with 12 laps to go to take an important victory, making amends for his late race misfortune from Trois-Rivières.

 

Camirand rounded out the podium, limiting the damage done to his championship lead and putting him in great position with three rounds to go.

 

Alex Guenette came home in fourth, just shy of the top three steps, with Alex Labbé finishing in fifth.

 

Alex Tagliani ended things in sixth, capping off a good day for him and his team.

 

Thomas Nepveu turned things around with a seventh place finish with Daniel Bois in eighth.

 

Simon Dion-Veins took the chequered in ninth place, punctuating a good day with a solid finish.

 

Dave Coursol rounded out the top 10, ahead of the likes of D.J. Kennington and Jason Hathaway.

 

The series heads over to Bowmanville, ON next and the 10 turns of Canadian Tire Motorsports Park.

 

Action begins on Sunday, Sept. 1 at 2:05 P.M. EST
