NASCAR unveiled Thursday the 2011 schedule for the fifth season of the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series, which takes the series to some of the nicest racing facilities throughout Canada.

The schedule features 12 dates at 12 different tracks across five provinces.

It includes tracks and events familiar to the series, but the addition of another road-course event is new for next season.

An important yearly-tradition is now gone since there will be no race staged at the Autodrome St. Eustache, Quebec next season.

Instead, the series will visit the ICAR circuit in Mirabel on June 5.
