Racing Electronics Becomes Official Communications Provider of FASCAR & 44th Annual World Series of Asphalt Stock Car Racing

CONCORD, NC (December 30, 2009) - The Florida Association of Stock Car Auto Racing (FASCAR) and its three flagship race tracks, New Smyrna Speedway, Orlando SpeedWorld and Columbia Motorsports Park, are the homes of some of the toughest short track battles not just in the Sunshine State.  In addition to that, prestigious events such as the World Series of Stock Car Racing in February, the Governor's Cup in November and more at all three facilities are renowned across the country. 

Racing Electronics, in its 20-plus years in the motorsports industry, has become the number-one source for professional race communications.  RE has earned a reputation as the industry leader from coast-to-coast and beyond in NASCAR, NHRA, World of Outlaws and more, including some of the top short track racing series and tracks.

Fittingly, Racing Electronics and FASCAR announced today that they have formed a partnership for RE to become the "Official Communications Provider of FASCAR," uniting two of the industry's top names in a way to benefit the racers and officials at all three FASCAR facilities.

"The partnership between Racing Electronics and FASCAR is intended to provide the tracks, series and racers in Florida an unprecedented level of support from a race communications provider," said Kevin Hughes, Racing Electronics' Team Services Manager.  "The short track competitors made us what we are today, and we make every effort to provide superior support & service to those valued customers across the country.  We're proud to take our support one step further by partnering with FASCAR in 2010 and beyond."

As the home of some of short track racing's most historic events, FASCAR facilities will be equipped with industry-leading communications technology from Racing Electronics to further enhance the on-track product at New Smyrna, Orlando and Columbia.

"We are extremely excited about our partnership with Racing Electronics," said Kim Brown, General Manager of New Smyrna Speedway and FASCAR.  "I believe Racing Electronics will provide FASCAR superior products and service and will guarantee the tracks and the racers that their communication needs will be met.  It will also benefit us to have Racing Electronics trackside at our larger events."

Racing Electronics' mobile sales and service teams will be on-site at many of the FASCAR events at New Smyrna, Orlando and Columbia, including the upcoming Red Eye 100 at New Smyrna Speedway on January 2nd.

All three FASCAR tracks will play host to some of short track racing's most anticipated events in 2010.  In addition to the Red Eye 100 Super Late Model event, New Smyrna Speedway will host the 44th Annual World Series of Asphalt Stock Car Racing February 4th through 13th.  Orlando SpeedWorld will kick off with its annual Legends and Bandolero Winter Nationals February 8th through 13th.  Throughout the 2010 season, all three FASCAR tracks will host Super Late Model races for the new Florida All Star Tour.  Orlando SpeedWorld will host two Crash-A-Rama events and New Smyrna Speedway will feature the Billie Harvey Memorial on April 24th and the 45th Annual Florida Governor's Cup 200 in November.
