The Kistler Racing Products Fremont / Attica Sprint Title is happy to announce that Engine Pro in conjunction with JE/SRP Pistons has signed on as a Presenting Sponsor for the 2010 F.A.S.T. Championship Season. With the announcement recently of Design Graphics Group, Inc. (DGGI) coming on board as the other Presenting Sponsor and with Kistler Racing Products returning as the series title sponsor, things are looking bright for the upcoming racing season. Engine Pro will team up with JE/SRP in the Presenting spot as both companies see the value of associating their brand with the F.A.S.T. Series to market their products to a target group of race teams. “JE/SRP is a great vendor of ours and we try to include them in our marketing campaigns,” said Scott Overlund of Engine Pro. “We know what works to get our name out at the grass roots level of racing and the FAST Series will be a great opportunity for both of our companies to get involved with the teams who are using our products.”
Engine Pro is a national network of affiliated engine parts warehouse distributors specializing in the supply of internal engine parts, engine kits, and related components to qualified machine shop, engine rebuilder and jobber customers. JE Pistons is the leader in high performance forged pistons. JE has a history of manufacturing the highest quality pistons and components that professional engine builders, race teams, and high performance enthusiasts trust and rely on. “We couldn’t be happier to welcome two companies of this caliber to our program,” said Bryan Autullo of the FAST Series. “This shows what kind of impact we have had with the FAST Series concept and we intend to keep up that level of intensity going into 2010 and beyond. We made it our job to make sure our sponsors and advertisers were taken care of in 2009 and we will continue to do so as we promote the Engine Pro and JE/SRP brands through our series events in 2010.”
