Ron Beauchamp Jr And Team Mopar Set For 2011

May 5, 2011.  Ron Beauchamp Jr and the #60 Mopar Parts/Mobil 1/Exide Batteries team took to the track at Kawartha Speedway for the first time this past weekend at the annual Mopar Test Day.  The team came away from the afternoon extremely pleased with the results and can’t wait to open the season in just a few weeks at Mosport.

It’s been an off season full of change for the #60 Mopar Parts/Mobil 1/Exide Batteries team.  The first visible change is the racy new look to the 2011 Dodge Challenger body on the race car.  Also new for 2011 is the Crew Chief as Mike Knott an experienced veteran of the series has signed on.  Knott brings with him some new and innovative ideas that the team has worked hard on this off season.  “Mike has worked with us in the past a little bit and when the opportunity for him to come aboard full time and be our Crew Chief came about we were thrilled” said Beauchamp.

The new car set up that Beauchamp took to the speedway with proved to be tremendously successful.  “I just can’t believe how good the car felt” exclaimed Beauchamp after one segment on the track.  “I just kept driving the car deeper and deeper each time around and I was expecting it to get loose, but it didn’t.  I can’t remember having a car that handled this well” he added.

The constant once again this season for the #60 Mopar Parts/Mobil 1/Exide Batteries team is the return of all the sponsorship partners for another season.  “We get amazing support from everyone” said the driver.  “Mopar is not only our sponsor but they are huge supporters of the series and that helps everyone.  Plus the additional backing from Mobile 1 and Exide Batteries is fantastic.  It’s a privilege to represent them at the races and all of the other events we have planned again this year” he stated.

Ron Beauchamp Jr and the #60 Mopar Parts/Mobil 1/Exide Batteries Dodge Team will compete in all twelve races on the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series schedule beginning with round one taking place May 28th at Mosport Speedway near Bowmanville, Ontario.  Once again this year all events will be broadcast on TSN.  Fans should check their local listings for times.  For more information about the #60 Mopar Parts/Mobil 1/Exide Batteries team log on to www.beauchampmotorsports.com and www.mopar.ca
