Team Octane To Battle For 2011 Castrol Touring Class Title

Team Octane, 2007 and 2009 Canadian Touring Car champions will compete for the 2011 Castrol Touring Class Title.

With 2 Series titles and 16 victories in the last 4 years, it’s a natural for us to come back to the series that brought us so many successes” commented Team Owner Alain Lauzière. “The 2011 schedule of major events put together by the Series has helped our team grow from a one car operation to a three car team” added Lauzière.

Team Octane, supported by MINI Original Parts, will run three race cars, #45, 46 and 47. One vehicle will is brand new built on a 2010 chassis and will be revealed later this year. It will make the team transition to the new R56 MINI turbo platform.

The Castrol Canadian Touring Car Championship 2011 season will start on May 21-22 at Mosport in Ontario for the Victoria Day Speedfest.
