Pete Shepherd III won the Claringon 200 at the Canadian Tire Motorsport Park Saturday, earning him a second NASCAR Canadian Tire victory in as many weeks.
Shepherd III, who is not a series' regular for the 2013 season, has been more than competitive. His victory on the facility's half-mile oval was the second straight for him, who drove the No. 7 National Exhaust/Diamond Material Handling Dodge to Victory Lane last week at Delaware Speedway.
The Clarington 200 is Shepherd's fifth career win in 18 starts over the last four years.
Scott Steckly rebounded from a slow start to the season to finish second. He had finished 21st and 24th in his two previous races.
J.R. Fitzpatrick was third, followed by Jason Hathaway and Steve Mathews.
Martin Roy, L.P. Dumoulin, Jeff Lapcevich, Hugo Vannini and D.J. Kennington completed the top 10.
Kerry Micks was the fastest in qualifying and led a race-high 86 laps, but wound up 19th as iginition issues ended his nights after 146 laps.
The NASCAR Canadian Tire Series will return to the road course with the Jiffy Lube 100 presented by Snap-on at Circuit ICAR in Mirabel, Quebec, on Sunday, July 7.
