(August 28, 2023) NASCAR fans were treated to an exhilarating display of skill and strategy at Circuit ICAR in Mirabel, Quebec on Saturday, August 26th, as Larry Jackson participated in his 100th NASCAR Pinty’s Series race. Starting from the 18th position in his #84 O’Neil Electric Dodge, Jackson showcased his driving prowess and determination, ultimately finishing 13th in a race that featured plenty of action.
A key moment in the 55-lap race came when the #84 decided to take advantage of the optional pit stop allowed for fuel. The crew also made additional handling adjustments to the car allowing Jackson to navigate through the final laps of the circuit with a better handling racecar.
Jackson’s determination, combined with the strategic work of his #84 O’Neil Electric team, resulted in a notable climb through the ranks, securing a 13th place finish overall.
Quotes:
“This was the kind of day that we got a little bit better with each session on track. During practice we made some adjustments and were better during qualifying. Then during the race with fuel mileage so close we chose to take on fuel and also make some additional changes to car. The O’Neil Electric Dodge was even better in the closing laps, and we collected a few more spots. It’s been a fun adventure through 100 races, looking forward to many more”.
