ABBOTT, Texas – The only title sponsor IMCA’s Sport Compact division has known returns to that role in 2016.
Mach-1 Racing Solution again provides a portion of the $1,000 point fund to be paid to top 10 drivers in final national standings for the 4-cylinder class.
The Gary Mach-owned company began giving Sport Compact contingencies in 2009 and became title sponsor for the class in 2011. This season is the third in a five-year sponsorship pact.
Sport Compact champions were crowned at 40 tracks and in two special series, in 10 states in last year.
One hundred and thirty-six different drivers have now won one or more of the nearly 250 track or special series titles awarded since IMCA began sanctioning Sport Compacts in 2006.
Nate Coopman of Mankato, Minn., won his career third national championship and Brendon Yamry of Rice, Minn., earned national rookie of the year honors in 2015.
“I can’t imagine a company more dedicated to the viability of a Sport Compact division in the country than Mach-1,” IMCA Marketing Director Kevin Yoder commented. “Their commitment to the class has provided a foundation that has led to the growth of IMCA Sport Compacts and will continue to do so into the foreseeable future.”
More information about Mach-1 support and consulting services is available by calling 254 826-5848. All drivers in the division are required to display two Mach-1 decals on their race car to be eligible for point fund shares.
