\u201cBFGoodrich has a strong road racing heritage and we\u2019re excited to build on that legacy in Ontario through our new partnership with the CASC,\u201d said Robert Haggart, motorsports manager for BFGoodrich Canada. \u201cOn the race track we clearly demonstrate the exceptional performance of our tires and equally important is the opportunity to engage with motorsports enthusiasts with whom we share a passion for racing.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are delighted to welcome BFGoodrich as a new marketing and contingency partner for our GT racing programs,\u201d said CASC-OR President, Perry Iannuzzi. \u201c It\u2019s rewarding to see BFGoodrich recognize the value of CASC and our grass roots motorsports activities and provide what could be the richest tire contingency program ever for GT club racing in Canada.\u201d<\/p>\n
Specific details of the contingency program will be released in the near future and will include race event and year-end awards that could total more than 45 sets of tires for BFGoodrich-shod competitors, a significant number for grass roots racing programs in Canada.<\/p>\n
