NOTABLE: Running out of the Dave Ja- combs stable this year, Courtemanche, the 2012 Most Popular Driver of the
Year, plans to campaign the full NASCAR Canadian Tire Series schedule. In 2012, he raced just nine times and was unable to crack into the top ten. But with a new team, and a new crew fhief in veteran Tim Ellas, he has high hopes for this season.
Richard Coburn
QUOTABLE: “The big thing for me to remember is to race smart, drive safely and save the car. As long as I can finish every race, I think we have a chance at scoring top tens every time.”

QUOTABLE: “My goal this year is to run the full season and chal- lenge for the Rookie title. Dave (Jacombs) is a very good teacher, and I feel very comfortable and confident in the car. Now it’s a matter of me getting used to the car and learning the tracks.”

QUOTABLE: “If someone steps up, we’ll make the journey to Mosport (CTMP) and Kawartha, otherwise, it’s just the two west races for us. Our goal has always been to crack into the top five, this is the year we have to focus on making that happen.”
