CLEMMONS, N.C. – National and regional champions are on the lengthy list of beneficiaries in Velocita’s award program with IMCA.
In the second of a three-year agreement, and beginning its eighth season as an IMCA sponsor, the Clemmons, N.C., manufacturer gives custom fire suits to IMCA Modified, IMCA Late Model, IMCA RaceSaver Sprint Car, IMCA Sunoco Stock Car, IMCA Sunoco Hobby Stock, Karl Chevrolet Northern SportMod, Smiley’s Racing Products Southern SportMod and Mach-1 Sport Compact national champions.
Champions of the Deery Brothers Summer Series for Late Models and the Arnold Motor Supply Dirt Knights Tour for Modifieds also receive fire suits while $200 product certificates will be awarded to other drivers winning Modified, Stock Car and Hobby Stock regional titles.
Each of those awards will be presented at the national awards banquet in November.
“We are excited about the 2019 season. IMCA divisions are growing and there are more great events each year,” said Velocita’s Brad Smith. “Velocita is committed to building the safest, best suit value in America.
