Two podiums for Lajoie

From Nadine Lajoie

Nadine Lajoie had a win and a third place result in WERA action at Miller Motorsports Park last weekend.

Despite being new to the circuit she claimed victory in the Womens Super Stock race. In a wet 600cc event she started eighth on her Catalyst Reaction/CoolCollegeBars Honda CBR600RR but made an excellent start to run third by corner one, and she held that spot throughout the race.

Lajoie also scored a fifth place finish in 750cc Super Stock and 10th in 600cc Superbike. These results were particularly noteworthy as the track was dring throughout those events but with the races so close together, and no one to help her in the pits, she was unabe to switch her Honda onto dry tires.

Unable to find a team to join in the six-hour endurance race she assisted Team Chicago in the pits and the squad managed a third-place finish.

“The whole weekend at Miller Motorsport was very thrilling for me," she said. "To run on a circuit where the best come to race is a dream come true.  I have to do it again next year."
