IRVINE,
Calif. (February 16, 2010) – Superior Crankshaft will enter grassroots
motorsports in 2010 with CEO Cheryl Archer naming long-time west coast racing
supporter Marty Melo as Grassroots Motorsports Marketing Manager.
Â
Superior
Crankshaft will sponsor teams and drivers in multiple series, beginning with
sponsorship of a new entry in the SRL SPEARS Southwest Tour.
Â
“I feel
like this is a strong market for our company,�?? Archer said. “There are a large
number of racers in grassroots oval track and drag racing that can benefit from
our technology and products.�??
Â
Archer
toured the pits at the NASCAR Toyota All-Star Showdown to gain a perspective of
the grassroots racing market and came away impressed with the level of variety
in engines used by the Super Late Model teams.
Â
Melo will
manage a wide-variety of sponsorship programs, with a product sponsorship
application going live on the Superior Crankshaft website later this week. Melo
will also oversee activation for the SRL Spears Southwest Tour program.
Â
“I am
very appreciative of the faith Cheryl has put into me,�?? Melo said. “We both see
this as long-term growth potential for this brand that has already been so
successful in the top levels of racing.�??
Â
Racing
teams and drivers should stay tuned to www.spcrankshaft.com

sponsorship announcements for the SRL Spears Southwest Tour team are coming
