Canadian driver Ron Fellows, winner of several NASCAR and Le Mans series races, and sponsor Canadian Tire will run in the
NASCAR Nationwide Series (NNS) races at Watkins Glen on August 13, 2011 and Montreal on August 20, 2011 with the #5 Chevrolet JR Motorsports (JRM) car. It was also announced that
Danica Patrick will race the No 7 car at the Montreal Circuit Gilles Villeneuve race.

Canadian Tires supports a lot of racing and motor sports in Canada, which includes my favourite stock car races with the Canada's local
NASCAR Canadian Tires Series (NCTS). We last checked out this series in the
Honda Indy Toronto 2011 weekend and previously at the
Mosport Vortex Brake Pads 200. And that reminds how great
Mosport International Raceway is.
The largest automotive retailer in Canada has more than 480
Canadian Tire stores and supports Ron both in Canada and the Unitied States. The driver has four wins and nine top-five finishes in the Nationwide Series road cours races driving with JRM. Ron Fellows who has also raced in the Camping World Truck Series and the Sprint Cup competition says "Having Canadian Tire on board for both Watkins Glen and Montreal is a bonus, particularly with the number of Canadian fans who make the trip to Watkins Glen."
