Stouffville, Ontario – September 3rd, 2025 – This past weekend at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, rookie driver Connor Bell impressed fans and competitors alike in just his second NASCAR Canada Series start, piloting the #3 Dymon/Komcan/East Rock Chevrolet.
Bell opened the weekend on Saturday by posting the 11th fastest time in practice, steadily gaining confidence on the high-speed road course. He backed it up in qualifying, securing the 11th starting position for Sunday’s main event.
After the drop of the green flag, Bell’s Day took an unexpected turn as a clutch failure developed early in the race. Despite the setback, the team quickly adjusted strategy to keep the #3 machine competitive. Showcasing determination and adaptability, Bell navigated through the field and fought his way to a remarkable 2nd-place finish, his worst finish yet in the NASCAR Canada Series.
Bell was pretty proud of the Team’s result. ““Another weekend for the history books with EHR at CTMP. Some misfortune on Saturday had us starting in 11th for the 51 lap race, but with some perfectly timed strategy calls we worked our way up to the front and secured a 2nd place finish for the team. I can’t thank the team enough for another great car all weekend long, our partners for making this all possible and all the friends and family for supporting. Can’t wait to get back in the seat for 2026!”
