Representatives from EuroNASCAR, Rousseau Métal, and Festidrag meet up in Canada to discuss plans for NASCAR Euro’s collaboration with NASCAR Canada in 2025 and beyond.
NASCAR Euro Series strengthens their collaboration with NASCAR Canada Series with their recent visit to Rousseau Métal’s factory in Saint-Jean-Port-Joli, Quebec, Canada.
EuroNASCAR was represented by its CEO, president and founder Jerome Galpin and his wife, EuroNASCAR Vice President Anne.
The two were joined together by two important figures from Rousseau Metal: Director of Canadian Sales and Business Development Randy Peardon and Marketing Manager Mélissa Barrette.
Another key partner in Festidrag.tv was also represented in this meeting. Its founder Martin D’Anjou joins the Galpin’s, Pearson and Barrette in this important visit that will help shape up the upcoming crossover between EuroNASCAR and NASCAR Canada.
“We are very pleased to have visited Rousseau and to have met such passionate and professional people,” said Jerome to nascar.eu.
“We were truly impressed by the company and their values, and we’re proud to count them among our partners for this initiative. This is another perfect example of how the NASCAR Euro Series continues to create real career opportunities for its drivers.”
“Every racer who dreams of competing in NASCAR should consider the NASCAR Euro Series as the most competitive and the most cost-effective way to open those doors.”
Rousseau Métal is the sponsor for EuroNASCAR and NASCAR Canada’s driver exchange program.
Their branding will be present on Raphaël Lessard’s No. 75 Chevrolet Camaro at Oschersleben as well as Vittorio Ghirelli’s No. 50 Chevrolet Camaro at Grand Prix de Trois-Rivières (GP3R).
Ghirelli was selected as EuroNASCAR’s representative as the championship leader after American SpeedFest 12. EuroNASCAR stipulated that whoever leads the championship in EuroNASCAR PRO at the summer break will be the one that receives a free entry to GP3R.
“We are grateful to GP3R, Festidrag, and NASCAR Europe for this opportunity,” said Barrette to nascar.eu. “We’ve been involved in the GP3R for several years now, notably through Les 60 Tours Rousseau Métal.”
“We’re always excited to continue this tradition, and it’s always a pleasure to award a high-quality special edition toolbox, made by our teams in Quebec, to the winner. Who knows, it might even make its way back to Europe with Ghirelli this year!”
