Madera, California (January 17, 2017) - LUCAS OIL has been a long running sponsor of the Madera Speedway and the rebuilding efforts of the race program. LUCAS OIL is back onboard for 2017 as a major player with a track sponsorship and the LUCAS OIL Horsepower Nationals sponsorship on June 10th with television support. The 2017 Madera Speedway season kicks off on March 11th and this is race number one in the BIG THREE Speedfest Series paying $5,000.00 to win for the first two races and $10,000.00 to win for the final race for the Late Model Series.

"We are excited to have LUCAS OIL back onboard for the 2017 Madera Speedway program at such a high level, and our fans and drivers greatly appreciate their support that will allow us to expand our race programs, and our MAVTV program. Personally, this is one of my favorite relationships in the sport, they are a big company but they act like a small family run business, LUCAS OIL is a true American success story and we are proud to have the relationship we have with them" Kenny Shepherd.

Forrest and Charlotte started Lucas Oil Products with the simple philosophy of producing only the best line of lubricants and additives available anywhere. Since its inception, Lucas has steadfastly adhered to this corporate objective. Through innovative product research and development, along with aggressive marketing programs, Lucas has established itself as a top selling additive line in the American truck stop industry.

Lucas is also one of the fastest growing additive lines in the consumer automotive industry. A premium line of oils, greases and problem solving additives has helped to firmly establish Lucas as a prominent figure in this marketplace.

Lucas also produces a heavy duty line of products for the industrial and agricultural markets. President Forrest Lucas sums it up, "Our forte' is to make better products for industries and specialty situations that are not having their needs completely satisfied by other oil products and, believe me, the major oil companies have left a lot of weak spots. We have an excellent staff and a world of technology which we have gained through years of research. Together we have done a great deal in a short period of time and we intend to do a lot more."

Lucas has long been directly involved in the American racing industry through multiple vehicle sponsorships and racing event promotions, at all levels. Seeing a need for better lubricants in this industry, the Lucas people went to work again. The end result being a line of high performance engine oils and gear oils that are second-to-none in the racing industry.

The Lucas success story has been built upon hard work, an unparalleled line of premium products and an unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction. This single formula for success will continue to guide Lucas Oil Products as it grows in the years to come. To learn more about LUCAS OIL, please visit www.lucasoil.com.
