Karl Allard Earns Wild St-Eustache 300 Win and 2010 Série ACT Castrol Edge Championship
St-Eustache, QC – St-Felicien’s Karl Allard claimed the win in the St-Eustache 300 and the 2010 Série ACT Castrol Edge Championship after a wild green-white-checkered finish at Autodrome St-Eustache on Sunday, September 26. Allard took the lead after leaders Patrick Laperle and Jonathan Urlin wrecked coming to the white flag. Laperle and Urlin ended up in the front stretch wall before the start-finish line as Allard snuck through on the low side. Allard took the white flag while the rest of the field took the yellow and white flags.
Daniel Descoste made it through the mayhem to earn second while Laperle and Urlin were unofficially scored in third and fourth respectively, as the final two cars on the lead lap.

Wentworth, NH – A beautiful early fall evening and a beautifully
fast track greeted the racers and fans this week for the Super Street
Shootout at Big Daddy’s Speedbowl.
