SH Karting: Coupe de Montréal karting championship iset to open


Saint-Hilaire, Québec - The 2007 edition of the Coupe de Montréal karting championship is opening this Saturday, May 5, at the SH Karting track, and over 125 drivers are expected.
This now traditional karting series will be hosting 7 events in 2007, alternating between SH Karting in Mont-Saint-Hilaire and SRA Karting in Saint-Roch-de-l’Achigan. Judging by the number of drivers who have been practicing at SH Karting this past week, the first event of the series will be a great success.
A total of eight classes are scheduled, among them the Rotax trio : Rotax Max Junior and Senior and Rotax Mini-Max, which made its debut last year. Three Honda classes are also scheduled, Honda Junior, Senior and Lite. And let’s not forget the popular Cadet class for the 8 to 10 year-old drivers.

"People can’t wait to taste the excitement of competition after the long winter we’ve had," says Clem Duriez, who has been organizing races for three decades now. Bridgestone is the main sponsor of the series this year, and the only tires allowed will be Bridgestone except in the Rotax Max Junior and Senior classes.

Race Schedule ­ May 5: Practice and qualifying will be held on Saturday morning, while the pre-finals and finals will take place after lunch. More detailed information is available on SH Karting’s website at www.shkarting.com.

The Coupe de Montréal series is sanctioned by the Fédération de sport automobile du Québec.
