Cummins stepped up in 2015 as a one race sponsor on the Parts for Trucks Pro Stock Tour as the presenting partner of the Series’ only stop at Speedway 660 in Geary, New Brunswick. In 2016, Cummins presented the 150-lap event on the River Glade International weekend in addition to their race at Speedway 660. Greg Proude (Springvale, PE) became the first driver from Prince Edward Island to win a Tour sanctioned event at Speedway 660 by crossing the line first at the Cummins 100. Craig Slaunwhite (Terence Bay, NS) took his second straight August win at Petty International Raceway with his win last year at the Cummins 150.
Each of the Cummins sponsored races will have 50 extra laps on their distances from 2016, making both races pivotal in deciding the 2017 Parts for Trucks Pro Stock Tour Champion.
