Peterborough, Ontario – As Kyle Tasker Motorsports prepares for their debut season in the Pro Late Model series at Brighton Speedway they are excited to welcome WIX Filters to the team as sponsor and filter supplier for the 2017 race season.

"Kyle Tasker Motorsports is extremely excited to have WIX Filters onboard as a sponsor for 2017! With their extensive history in the automotive industry and motorsports I am stoked to have them keeping our GM604 crate engines life blood clean! Keeping our GM crate engine running strong will play a huge part in our 2017 race program and we are so excited to work with WIX this year to accomplish this." replied Tasker.
