It was another great weekend of racing for Lafrance Performance and their stable of drivers throughout Ontario and Quebec. After posting wins last week at Drummond and Cornwall with Mario Clair and Michel Chicoine, Lafrance Performance was looking to keep the strong finishes coming once again, as teams battled at RPM Speedway on Saturday night and Cornwall Speedway on Sunday.

With his double wins on the weekend, Chris Raabe is without a doubt, this week’s Lafrance Performance Performer of the Week. Congratulations to Chris Raabe and the entire 01 race team.
