Waterbury, VT — The American-Canadian Tour (ACT) is less than three weeks away from its inaugural trip to North Carolina’s Hickory Motor Speedway.

Waterbury, VT — The 30th season of the ACT Late Model Tour will be one of the most lucrative in the series’ history. American-Canadian Tour (ACT) officials and its contingency partners have to post just under $50,000 in point fund money, free product, and merchandise certificates to be handed out at the conclusion of the 12-event point-counting schedule. The chase for these awards begins at the inaugural $5,000-to-win Northeast Classic on Saturday, April 17 at Loudon’s New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

KONI North America

Since 2004, KONI has been an approved shock absorber for ACT competition. In fact, nearly all of the current ACT Late Model shock rules were developed in partnership with ACT. As part of their agreement, KONI supplies three sets of 30 Series shocks (approx. value $660 per set). One set each is raffled off at the ACT, Thunder Road, and White Mountain banquets to drivers who competed in 100% of the point-counting events.
