AKRON, Ohio (November 29, 2011); Goodyear Racing announced today that effective immediately, Penney Racing Supply, based in Sacramento, CA will expand its operations in the Goodyear Short Track program to include the entire US.

The announcement marks a continuation of the relationship between the two companies. In previous years, Penney Racing Supply distributed Goodyear’s industry-leading short track racing tires to tracks and teams in the Western United States. The new agreement makes Penney the sole Goodyear Short Track Racing program sales representative across the country, effective January 1, 2012. The company will establish an eastern base and announce that location soon.

“We are very excited about covering the entire US for the Goodyear Short Track program,” said Fred Penney, President of Penney Racing Supply. “We’ll provide a value to race teams and promoters just like we have done for many years in the West. Our general manager, Jeff Munro, works extremely hard to assist all of our customers in a professional manner.”

“Jeff has been in racing his entire life and he has the trust of the racing community. That is very important to Goodyear,” said Scott Junod, sales account manager for Goodyear’s short track racing program. “He works tirelessly, knows our product line, and how to best utilize it to provide the best racing package in the industry. We are extremely pleased about the Penney Racing Supply expansion in the Eastern US.”
