02/04/24 • 102 min
On this episode, we discover the roots of the Amercian-Canadian Tour's new full time affiliate Canadian series, the ACT LMS Quebec! Who better to tell us about it than last year's season champion and renowned Canadian racing phenom, Raphael Lessard. The ACT has strong ties to the Maritimes, and Raphael has raced in Atlantic Canada, competing in the Irving Blending & Packaging Pro Stock 250 at Speedway 660 in September 2015 (at the age of 14!)
We cover some basic history of the American-Canadian Tour and how ACT LMS Quebec was born. We'll review last season, and look ahead to this upcoming season. Of course, we cover some of the highlights of Raphael's career, from his quick ascension through the late model ranks at a very young age to his Nascar Truck Series win at Talladega!
