Jason Hathaway said prior to the Budweiser 300 that to win the 100th race in the history of the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series presented by Mobil 1 would be something special.

He was able to do just that Saturday at Autodrome Chaudiere in Vallée-Jonction, Quebec, Canada.

After race leader Scott Steckly experienced mechanical trouble battling Hathaway for the lead while leading on lap 270, Hathaway sailed the final 30 laps to score his second consecutive win at the track and first of the season in the historic event.

The St. Thomas, Ontario, native is one of three drivers – along with D.J. Kennington and Steckly – to start all 100 events in the series, which began in 2007.

Pole sitter Alex Labbe was able to close the gap on Hathaway in the final laps before settling for second. Kennington, Andrew Ranger and Alex Tagliani completed the top five.

Hathaway qualified 13th for the race. He quickly drove his No. 3 Fast Eddie/Brakeworks/HGC Chevrolet into the top five just past halfway of the race and was challenging Steckly for the lead by lap 189.

Steckly had led a race-high 154 laps and was at the point following the race’s final restart, but his car began smoking on lap 269. He wound up 16th.

Steckly’s issues opened the door for Hathaway to pick up his sixth career NCATS win.

Anthony Simone finished sixth, followed by Gary Klutt, Larry Jackson, Joey McColm and defending series champion L.P. Dumoulin.

Klutt and Hathaway both have 84 points after two races, two points ahead of third-place Kennington. Ranger is eight points behind the leader and Dumoulin another three points back.

The next race for the series will be the Leland Industries 300 pres. by Johnsonville at Sunset Speedway on June 20.
