Summit Racing Equipment Expands Club Racing Contingency Program

TALLMADGE, Ohio (Dec. 16, 2005) — Now, even more competitors on the SCCA Club Racing National circuit can earn valuable contingency money from Summit Racing Equipment. The Tallmadge, Ohio-based company has added three more classes to its Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) Club Racing contingency program and has expanded its lineup of contingency items for 2006.

Summit Racing Equipment now offers cash contingency payouts to racers in the E Production, Showroom Stock B, and Showroom Stock C classes. In addition, the company will once again offer contingency to competitors in the A Sedan, Touring 1, Touring 2, and GT-1 classes.

Racers in each of the seven eligible classes can now choose from an expanded selection of contingency items, which now includes the entire line of Summit brand products. The Summit brand lineup includes hundreds of high-quality parts, accessories, and performance-related items.

To earn a cash payout from Summit Racing, SCCA competitors must win or runner-up with any Summit brand product while displaying two Summit Racing Equipment contingency decals on their vehicle. Payouts are $100 for first place, $75 for second place, $50 for third place, and $25 for fourth place.

“The SCCA circuit offers an exciting brand of racing, and we’re looking forward to expanding our involvement in it,” Kirk Heinbuch, Summit Racing Equipment Motorsports and Events Manager, said. “It’s a great opportunity to support some of today’s factory hot rods and an excellent way to increase exposure for our line of high-quality Summit brand products.”

The world’s largest direct marketer of performance automotive parts and accessories, Summit Racing Equipment offers the largest selection, lowest prices, and best customer service in the high performance industry. The company is headquartered in Tallmadge, Ohio with retail locations in Tallmadge, Ohio; Sparks, Nev.; and beginning in February 2006, McDonough, Ga.
