Marc-Antoine Camirand (BMW 330i) got his consecutive wins tally up to four this weekend by clinching both Canadian Touring Car Championship (CTCC) rounds held this past weekend in Mont-Tremblant.
"Another perfect weekend! But this time, it was much closer," admits Camirand.
All weekend long, he had Mathieu Audette (Acura RSX), back behind the wheel, on his tail. Mathieu's brother, Rémy, who drove the car last time out at the Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve, was supposed to sit this round out, but had the chance to race in B-Spec, thanks to Lombardi Honda.
Mathieu took a string of second places, plus the fastest lap of the race on Sunday.
Rémy came in second Saturday, and third Sunday, behind the almighty Nick Wittmer (Honda Fit), who took his seventh and eighth (out of eighth) consecutive wins of the season, in Tremblant.
Jean-François Dumoulin (Honda Fit), in Lombardi's second B-Spec car, swapped positions with Rémy, finishing third on Saturday, and second on Sunday.
Sasha Anis rounded out the top three both times in the Super Touring class.
In Touring, Jacques Bélanger (Honda Civic Si) got full marks. Daniel Blanchette (Honda Civic Si) and PJ Groenke (MINI Cooper S) crossed the finish behind him Saturday, and Michel Sallenbach (MINI Cooper S) and Jocelyn Hébert (Honda Civic Si) on Sunday.
