Bassett Racing Wheel will rejoin the American-Canadian Tour (ACT) stock car racing organization in 2008, continuing a long and successful partnership with the sanctioning body in the northeastern United States and Canada. Bassett is the leading manufacturer of auto racing wheels in the U.S., and has a style of wheel for virtually every type of stock car. Bassett is also an industry leader in research and development, safety, and innovation.ACT drivers will be rewarded by Bassett throughout the year; the second-place finisher in each of 12 ACT Late Model Tour events throughout the U.S. and Canada will receive certificates, as will the second-place finisher in each event of the nine-race Série ACT Castrol in Québec and Ontario. Bassett will also give awards at the conclusion of each series’ season, with the top three championship drivers receiving a certificate toward the purchase of Bassett Racing Wheels. There will also be a random draw at each series’ Banquet of Champions, rewarding a lucky driver with four free, powder-coated wheels.
