The Lucas Oil Can-Am Midgets, having just successfully completed their 50th Anniversary season, are proud to announce the return of Lucas Oil as the 'Series Sponsor' in 2016.
President Ken Lorenz said "I am honored to announce the continuation of Lucas Oil as our 'Series Sponsor' for 2016. This will be our 12th year of 'partnership' with an outstanding organization that supports our weekly racing series and knows the importance of 'family' as in our 'Racing Family'. We are very proud to continue to race under the Lucas Oil name."
In making this announcement, Tom Bogner, Director Motorsports for Lucas Oil, said "We are very proud to be returning after 11 successful years of great racing. We have all survived some tough economic times in Motorsports over the 11 years for sure. Midget racing is an exciting sport to watch live and has always been one of my favorite race venues, whether it is spec engines or full on Esslinger 400 HP screaming engines. Can-Am has been very loyal to our Lucas Oil brand and we are looking forward to many more years. I would like to thank all the racers who support the series and continue to provide exciting and competitive racing for all the fans."
