TORRANCE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--[url=\"http://www.dreamGEAR.net\"]dreamGEAR[/url]®, a leading provider of high-quality and cutting-edge accessories for video games and a leading provider of portable audio and power accessories has announced a licensing partnership with NASCAR®. dreamGEAR is producing NASCAR-branded gaming accessories for racing video game titles on the market.

Compatible with all Playstation®3 (PS3) and Nintendo® Wii™ racing games, the new NASCAR-branded dreamGEAR wheels will give gamers the feel of being on the racetrack, while showcasing the look of iconic NASCAR racecar wheels. dreamGEAR worked with NASCAR - the No. 1 spectator sport - to give racing game enthusiasts an experience at every turn much like their favorite NASCAR drivers.

Simulating the excitement of real-life steering wheels, the NASCAR-branded dreamGEAR wheels have a larger grip and lifelike feel than other video game wheels currently on the market. The NASCAR inspired wheel design provides a combination of aesthetics and practicality with full rubberized sidings for enhanced comfort and brackets for authentic styling.

“We are thrilled by this alliance, which will bring a new level of excitement to dreamGEAR’s line of video game accessories,” said COO Richard Weston. “We are flattered by the confidence that NASCAR has in dreamGEAR to combine their established national brand with ours, and we are confident based upon feedback from our retail partners that this new licensing partnership will have a significant and positive impact on dreamGEAR’s sales.”

The two new NASCAR racing wheels for PS3 and Wii attach to or hold a Wii Controller or a PS3 wireless controller, making it possible for gamers to grip the wheel and simulate actual racing. Both racing wheels will be available in the first quarter of 2010 in the U.S., Canada and Mexico.

These new products will be introduced at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) Jan. 7 – 10, 2010 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, booth Central 7905 and will be available in the first quarter of 2010 at dreamGEAR.net and retail stores nationally.
