St. Eustache is a speedway that I have only competed at once in my career.It is a flat 3-8 mile oval located just outside of the city of Montreal.We raced there in 1994 and were fortunate enough to win a 100 lap American Canadian Tour race.Although we won there years ago it was in an entirely different type of car so the learning curve will be a little steeper than hoped for.Most of the current NASCAR Canadian Tire Series drivers have been running there yearly during their time in the former CASCAR series.Last year marked the first time in the last 6-7 years that the series was not there.
I am looking forward to getting back to a track that I have not been to in years and the challenge of figuring it out with the current cars we compete with.It is my goal to nail down a top 5 finish and maintain our position in the points standings.
Derek Lynch is considered one of Canada’s most accomplished oval track racers. Since his introduction to motorsports at the age of 10, Derek has found success at every level in which he has competed. Derek comes from a family oriented racing background that began with his father Dave Lynch. Dave was one of Ontario’s best Late Model racers of the 1970’s and 1980’s.
2008 will see Derek enter his 5th season in his managerial role at Kawartha Speedway, as well as campaigning on the entire NASCAR Canadian Tire series schedule. Derek will be looking to better his Top 5 finish in the Championship points standings, as well as adding to the win column.
