Not long ago I was racing in formula cars, but for the 2006 season I decided to get my feet wet in tin tops (sedan cars) for the first time. First stop Mont-Tremblant, one of the most challenging tracks in North America.

The week-end started on Friday morning with a practice session, I was well off the pace as I was trying to get a feel for the car and the difference in braking point and handling of the car as it’s a totally different car them my usual Formula 1600. I took the car beyond its limits on some points and spun so the times were not so great, 10 sec. behind the leaders….In the afternoon session, I improved my time to only 7 sec. behind the pole sitter, as I was getting used to the car’s characteristics and handling cues. On Saturday’s qualifying I improved to only 5 sec. off the pole, during the first race just following the qualifying session I came to be 2.6 sec. slower then the pole sitter, I came from the 11th position to finished the race in 9th place.
