CONCORD, March 9, 2011: CGH Motorsports officials announced today that Wiley X® has joined their ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards team as an associate marketing partner for the 2011 ARCA season beginning with round two at Talladega (Ala.) Speedway on Friday, April 15, 2011.

CGH Motorsports pilot Chad Hackenbracht will also arrive at the 2.66-mile superspeedway decked out in official Wiley X® apparel in an effort to strengthen the Livermore, California’s based-company presence in the ARCA garage.

Wiley X® Eyewear is a leading provider of protective eyewear and ballistic products for the U.S. military, outdoor sports enthusiasts and the safety and shooting industries to name a few.

Hackenbracht becomes the first ARCA driver affiliated with Wiley X® and is joined in great company with NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stars, Greg Biffle, Denny Hamlin, Kevin Harvick, Joey Logano Mark Martin, David Ragan and multiple-time NASCAR Camping World Truck Series champion Ron Hornaday Jr., who all sport the Wiley X® brand on a weekly basis.

“To be affiliated with a family-owned company like Wiley X® is a privilege,” said Hackenbracht, a native of New Philadelphia Ohio. “Not only is it cool to have Wiley X® on our family-owned CGH Motorsports car, but to be asked to wear their stuff, I’m pumped. I’m hoping that this is a partnership that we can build on for many years to come.”

Myles Freeman, Co-Owner and President of Sales for Wiley X® shared his enthusiasm about adding Hackenbracht to their platform. “Chad’s a talented kid. We’re excited to get our feet wet in the ARCA Series with a guy whose had great success on asphalt. His support team is fantastic, he has great tools to exceed and most importantly, he’s the kind of young man who will represent Wiley X® well in Victory Lane.”

CGH Motorsports is hoping to run the full ARCA Racing Series schedule with Hackenbracht the driver of the team’s No. 58 Chevrolet Impala SS. The team’s season started at Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway last month where a solid performance was overshadowed by an incident 36 laps from the end.
