Hoosier now in ninth season as official tire of IMCA

LAKEVILLE, Ind. – Continuing one of the most popular associations enjoyed by the sanctioning body, Hoosier Racing Tire is now in its ninth season as manufacturer of the official tire for five IMCA divisions. Hoosier manufactures and distributes the IMCA-stamped G60-15 tire for the IMCA Xtreme Motor Sports Modified, IMCA Sunoco Stock Car and Karl Chevrolet Northern SportMod divisions; the IMCA-SCL stamped tire for IMCA Late Models; and the IMCA-stamped 500 tire for Scoggin-Dickey Parts Center Southern SportMods. Also of note, the Lakeville, Ind., company contributes to national point funds for each of the five divisions and gives contingency awards at the IMCA Speedway Motors Super Nationals fueled by Casey’s. “The notion that Hoosier’s contributions to IMCA racing have become ordinary is a real testament to the consistency and dependability of not only the tire they supply, but the support they provide,” emphasized IMCA Marketing Director Kevin Yoder. “The partnership began as a reliability on the tire, but is sustained by the quality of the relationship we’ve established with the great people who work there.”
