Carpentier up to speed in Hasselgren powered DP
It was announced last month that Canadian racer Patrick Carpentier would drive the SAMAX Hasselgren powered Pontiac Riley for the full 2007 Rolex Series calendar. Now, with time to adjust to the car and the team, Carpentier is excited about the prospects in 2007.

Carpentier was third-quickest in Monday's test sessions and turned the fifth-fastest lap in Tuesday morning's session aboard the No. 11 CITGO/SAMAX Pontiac Riley. "We're not trying to re-invent anything here," said Carpentier. "I've known most of these guys a long time, and I know that this car will be competitive. The guys have worked hard and hopefully we'll be ready when the 24-hour comes in January."

SAMAX team owner Peter Baron, who competed with Carpentier in the Toyota Atlantic Series, knows the potential of the team in 2007. "We were competitive for the first half of the race last year," said Barron. "I know the team can do it. I know the drivers can do it. I don't want to just finish this thing, I want to win."
