2017 Super DIRTcar Series Partners Announced
Story By: COLBY GORNIEWICZ / DIRTCAR – CONCORD, NC – The Super DIRTcar Series is pleased to announce their list of marketing partners for the 2017 season. A list that features 17 of the industry-leading brands.
The Super DIRTcar Series, the nation’s premier touring Big-Block Modified Series, kicked-off the 2017 points campaign on Saturday, April 29 when the Series visited the high-banks of Fulton Speedway. Over the course of the eight-month points season, 16 full-time drivers will be vying for the Series championship.
“It’s refreshing to see all the marketing partners that have come onboard to support DIRTcar Racing and Super DIRT Series,” said Series Director Mike Perrotte. “We feel this is a great opportunity for our partners to showcase their brands and get up close and personal with not only our racers but the fans.”
“We truly believe that DIRTcar Racing offers some of the best racing on dirt. With Big-Block Modifieds, you get the best of all worlds, with young guns looking to make a name, to the veterans of the Series looking to stay on top in the racing world. It’s a great mix of talent,” added Perrotte.
Two new marketing partners for the 2017 season include, Speed51.com and SPEEDY FIRST AID. Speed51.com is the nation’s largest short track website and will offer at-track blog-style coverage of Super DIRTcar Series races for the 2017 season, as well as video highlights of the Super DIRTcar Series. Speed51.com will be sponsoring the Most Popular Driver Award for the Super DIRTcar Series.
SPEEDY FIRST AID is jumping on board for the first time this season. As a manufacturer of first-aid kits designed specifically for the racing industry, SPEEDY FIRST AID will be sponsoring the Hard Luck Award for the 2017 season.
One of the many returning marketing partners includes Dig Safely New York (DSNY).
