Buckner, MO (Feb. 22, 2009)-Tompkins Industries and The Lucas Cattle Company have reached agreements to partner with the O'Reilly MLRA presented by Lucas Oil Products as major associate sponsors for the 2009 racing season. "We're really excited to add sponsors of this caliber to our series for 2009." stated MLRA Promoter Harriett Chancellor.

As an ISO Certified Company, you can trust Tompkins products to meet or exceed industry standards. Customer benefits remain at the core of any decision as Tompkins continues to grow and plan for the future. Their same-day shipping guarantee provides fast and efficient delivery from any of their nationwide distribution centers. Add that to competitive pricing and one of the largest in-stock inventories in the industry and you've got what Tompkins Industries, Inc. is all about - customer satisfaction, order after order. Please visit www.tompkinsind.com  for more information.


Lucas Cattle Company is a breeder of High Perfomance Simmental under the direction of Forrest and Charlotte Lucas. Forrest Lucas, the founder of Lucas Oil Products worked his way through high school showing cattle. He realized at the time that the major cattler breeders were breeding for all the wrong reasons leading to the near destruction of the American Beef Industry. The breeders were mainly interested in the show ring while milk production, calving ease, and easy fleshing seemed to be of little importance. He promised himself then that if he was ever in a position to do positive beef breeding he would. The success of Lucas Oil Products has allowed him to fulfill that dream. Forrest and Charlotte Lucas are very active in many forms of motorsports and we welcome them to the MLRA team not only as the series' presenting sponsor through the Lucas Oil Products brand, but also through the promotion of the Lucas Cattle Company as a series contingency sponsor.

The O'Reilly MLRA (Midwest Latemodel Racing Association) presented by Lucas Oil sanctions regional Super Dirt Late Model touring series events in Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, and Iowa.
