QUARTER MASTER PUTS FORTH STIMULUS PACKAGE FOR USMTS COMPETITORS

LAKE ZURICH, Ill. (April 1) – A friend in speed is a friend indeed.

Quarter Master Industries, Inc. has been producing winning clutches and driveline components for racers since 1972, and now the company is helping USMTS drivers turn the current economic recession into a race session.

“We understand the difficult times that all of our customers are currently experiencing in these economic times,” said Dave Kamholtz, Sales Manager for Quarter Master.

Beginning with the event at the West Siloam Speedway this Friday and Saturday, April 3-4, Quarter Master will be boosting each USMTS driver's take home pay with a product certificate good for $200 off any clutchless bellhousing kit or a 10% discount on any other components.

“We hope that as the season starts to wear on their cars, we will be able to help them keep on the track.”

As part of their commitment to USMTS competitors, Quarter Master is already awarding product certificates to drivers at each USMTS event, with a $100 award to each Sunoco “A” Main winner and a $50 prize to the eighth-place finisher. In addition, Quarter Master is a contributor to the year-end points funds for both the USMTS Casey's General Stores National Tour and USMTS Southern Series.

Located in Lake Zurich, Ill., Quarter Master began operations in 1972. Since that date, Quarter Master products have enjoyed a long history of track-proven race-winning results. That long-standing enjoyment has come from a “race-team-like effort” with attention to detail, and from listening and responding to the racer. Quarter Master products are built to exceed the racer’s demand and need for reliability, high performance and durability.

Quarter Master provides winning clutches and driveline components to racers from superspeedways to bullrings, from the IRL to Rally and from NASCAR to the USMTS. Quarter Master products are designed from the knowledge and experience of racers utilizing state-of-the-art engineering software such as AutoCAD, 3D modeling and FEA. In addition, Quarter Master products are CNC-manufactured by an experienced staff to the toughest quality standards to outlast and outrun the competition.

The USMTS Casey’s General Stores National Tour is revving up for a four-night swing through Missouri, Oklahoma and Kansas this weekend, along with the USMTS Southern Series sandwiched in between. The mud starts flying this Thursday, April 2, as the USMTS Casey’s General Stores National Tour invades the LA Raceway in La Monte, Mo., for the third straight year. On Friday and Saturday, April 3-4, the West Siloam Speedway in West Siloam Springs, Okla., will play host to both the USMTS Casey’s General Stores National Tour and the USMTS Southern Series in the 3rd Annual Quarter Master Sooner Modified Nationals—the only double-dip for both series in 2009. Then on Sunday, April 5, the USMTS Casey’s General Stores National Tour visits the Thunderhill Speedway in Mayetta, Kan., for the thirteenth time in seven years for the 7th Annual Kansas Spring Fling.

A take home pay of $9,000 is up for grabs for any driver lucky and skilled enough to sweep the weekend's events. All four blockbuster events will be worth valuable points in the Bear Tire Mo-Kan Region of the USMTS Casey’s General Stores National Tour. A power-packed field of cars are expected as the two-day show at West Siloam will also be a points contest for the West Region of the USMTS Southern Series.
