O’REILLY AUTO PARTS RETURNS AS USMTS TITLE SPONSOR
WEBSTER CITY, Ia. (Nov. 29) - O’Reilly Auto Parts will return as title sponsor
of the O’Reilly Auto Parts United States Modified Touring Series in 2007,
marking the third straight year of the partnership between America's leading
auto parts retailer throughout the Midwest and Southeast and America's premier
modified touring series.
Since 1957, O’Reilly Auto Parts has stood for quality parts and outstanding
customer service. It all began with one store in Springfield, Mo., and the
lessons learned there are still applied today in more than 1,600 stores in 25
states.
"When you talk about the best modified racing in the country you have to be
talking about the O’Reilly USMTS. Todd and his crew run a quality show and that
is who we want to be associated with," said Kevin Greven, motorsports marketing
manager for O’Reilly Auto Parts. "O’Reilly Auto Parts is the title sponsor of
over 30 top notch series that run in our market areas but nobody in the country
brings in a more competitive series than the O’Reilly USMTS. Thanks to Todd, his
staff, the racers and the track promoters for making this a great partnership!"
O’Reilly Auto Parts is one of the largest specialty retailers of automotive
aftermarket parts, tools, supplies, equipment, and accessories in the United
States, serving both the do-it-yourself and professional installer markets.
"As the title sponsor of the USMTS, O’Reilly Auto Parts has proven to our fans
and competitors that they are unmatched in grassroots motorsports support," said
USMTS president Todd Staley. "The support of O’Reilly Auto Parts has been
instrumental in the growth and popularity of the O’Reilly USMTS brand. We, along
with our drivers, team members and fans, are truly blessed to have their
backing."
The O’Reilly USMTS is unparalleled in dirt modified racing. In 2006, the
O’Reilly USMTS staged 60 events at 33 tracks in nine States throughout America's
heartland, with more than 500 drivers suiting up for competition. The 2007
season will mark the ninth year of racing for the O’Reilly USMTS, and is
tentatively scheduled to kick off with the 4th Annual Nebraska Spring Thaw at
the Junction Motor Speedway in McCool Junction, Neb.
