Two weeks ago the DGM Racing team, led by Mario Gosselin, announced the return of Alex Labbé to the No. 36 car for four NASCAR Xfinity Series (NXS) races this year, thanks to the financial support of Cam-Am. Festidrag Development is proud to announce today the return of its partners Rousseau Métal, Prolon Controls, Groupe Brière International, Globocam, MR Drywall and Excavations C.A.T. puts the Saint-Albert’s driver behind the wheel for an additional 12 races, thus guaranteeing a half season with DGM Racing.
“I am very proud of the Canadian companies who have stepped up to help Alex make his mark in the American stock car industry. In racing, money equals speed, and even for a talented driver like Alex Labbé, funding remains a challenge every year,” says Martin D’Anjou, President of Festidrag Development. “We are constantly seeking partners and welcome those who wish to help us reach the finish line of the NXS.”
Last year Labbé performed particularly well on the road courses. Most noteworthy was his spectacular 4th place finish at the Charlotte Roval last October, a career-best and team-best finish. Festidrag Development’s partners chose to invest in the road courses to capitalize on Labbé’s talents with a strong finish in hopes of attracting additional financial partners, which would allow him to complete the entire 2021 NXS.
