"There was a lot of excitement surrounding our partnership with ACT in 2015 and we're excited to build on that next year. The move of the Oxford 250 to August solidified its place as one of short track racing's biggest events and we're glad to continue that in 2016. We're also excited to once again be returning to Thompson and White Mountain next year."
