Wayne Helliwell Jr. (27NH) on his way to an ACT win at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.
Pelham NH (4/14/2016) When Dover New Hampshire’s Wayne Helliwell Jr. rolls out Bruce Bernhardt’s familiar 27NH at Maine’s Oxford Plains Speedway Sunday, the three – time and defending American-Canadian Tour champions will carry a new name on the quarter panels of their Ford Fusion.
Rydemore Heavy Duty Truck Parts, a Fitchburg Massachusetts-based reseller of used, remanufactured and new medium and heavy duty truck parts, originally signed on for the postponed Lee USA Speedway ACT season opener and the sponsorship will remain in place for the PASS/ACT doubleheader at Oxford on Sunday April 17th.
Said team owner Bernhardt, “It’s great to have Rydemore on board for Oxford. Our quarter panels were going to be blank to kick off the season, so they stepped up at just the right time. It’s a one race deal, but Wayne and I hope that a solid performance at Oxford might lead to more Rydemore support down the road.” The Helliwell/Bernhardt combination plans to compete in all thirteen ACT series points races, with an eye on a fourth series title.
“Bruce and Wayne are first class racers in every respect,” said Rydemore Vice-President Harry Franssen.” Their track record is undeniable, and I know that they will do a first rate Job for Rydemore as we expand our motorsports marketing program. We serve truckers with one logging truck or a company with a hundred in their fleet, and, with so many race fans and racers involved in the transportation industry in their daily lives, we felt that short track racing was a perfect fit for our company’s expanded marketing efforts.”
Practice for Sunday’s season opener gets underway at 9:30 AM, and the first qualifying race takes the green at 2:00 PM.
