LEXINGTON, N.C. – IMCA’s top drivers are in line for custom fire suits courtesy of Velocita each of the next three seasons.
The premium motorsports apparel manufacturer and 10-year IMCA sponsor has signed on to award a combination of fire suits and product certificates through 2023.
“We are truly honored to be a part of the nation’s premier dirt sanctioning body. Our relationship with IMCA has afforded us the opportunity to work with thousands of racers coast to coast through the sanction,” said Velocita President Brad Smith. “We are excited to be on board another three years and look forward to a bright and progressive future with IMCA.”
Velocita gives custom fire suits to IMCA Modified, IMCA Sunoco Late Model, IMCA RaceSaver Sprint Car, IMCA Sunoco Stock Car, IMCA Sunoco Hobby Stock, Karl Kustoms Northern SportMod, Smiley’s Racing Products Southern SportMod, Mach-1 Sport Compact and now IMCA STARS Mod Lite national champions, as well as the Junior National Champion and Lady Eagle winner.
Other drivers winning Modified, Stock Car and Hobby Stock regional titles receive $200 product certificates.
Those awards will be presented at the IMCA national banquet this fall.
Event title sponsor Fast Shafts gives Velocita-made fire suits to all drivers starting the All-Star Invitational during the IMCA Speedway Motors Super Nationals fueled by Casey’s at Boone Speedway.
In addition, Velocita awards single layer fire suits to Late Model, Sport Compact and Mod Lite Super Nationals and RaceSaver Nationals champions, and to top non-qualifiers in the Modifieds, Stock Cars, Hobby Stocks and Northern SportMods at Super Nationals.
Velocita also manufactures gloves, shoes and underwear, crew shirts and jackets. More information is available at the company’s www.velocita-usa.com website or by calling 336 816-7223.
“Velocita has stitched and sewn a lot of IMCA fire suits over the past 10 years with no signs of scaling back,” IMCA Marketing Director Kevin Yoder commented. “This latest extension demonstrates their commitment to IMCA racing and continues to outfit our champions in safe and reliable suits.”
