AEROMOTIVE GOING SPEED RACING WITH MARTIN

Aeromotive Inc. has signed on as a major sponsor of Will Martin's The Amazing Speed Racer Nitro Funny Car. 

“When I took over the fuel system decisions on our car in the summer of 2014, I set out on an all-out quest to create the most efficient fuel system in Nostalgia Drag Racing," said Martin, who plans to run a Dale Armstrong tribute car mimicking his 1981 Mopar. 

"I looked at fittings and hoses and chose Phenix Industries for our needs there. Those changes showed huge improvements in testing with no engine damage at all. Now, taking that data and using it to make move improvements for 2015 we have chosen the new Aeromotive Terminator pump for our fuel delivery needs. Let me tell you the pump curve and data are impressive.” said Martin. 

The new Terminator pump features a modular design that makes servicing the pump a breeze. The internals were designed to squeeze every drop of fuel out of the pump that could be. The larger volute around the triple hard coated billet gears allow for more volume to be seen at the barrel valve while decreasing bypass internally to the pump. This means the pump will spool up faster at the step, stay cooler, and be able to produce more volume at high rpm.

Aeromotive’s Vic Wood is excited about the partnership.  

“We are thrilled to have a test program with Mach 3 Motorsports – I have watched them in the pits for a few years now and they go about things in the “right way”," said Wood. "Will presents his cars in a very professional manner and always runs hard”. Bub Miller (Aeromotive’s Director of Motorsports) will work with Will and his team to ensure sound feedback and support. Will joins John Hale, Roland Leong, Nate Bugg, Bob Devour Alex Miladinovich and numerous others who are now part of the Aeromotive racing family."  

The new partnership between Aeromotive Inc. and Mach III Motorsports will see the new terminator fuel pump on the Speed Racer Funny Car beginning in Tucson at the IHRA season opener. The team will be working very closely with Aeromotive’s Director of Motorsports Bub Miller on improvements to the pump as well as other new product development.

"Steve and Vic at Aeromotive have taken a big leap of faith with the IHRA brand," said IHRA President Scott Gardner. "We are truly happy to have Aeromotive join our rapidly growing family of partners. Aeromotive truly epitomizes the high quality standard of marketing partners we look for," he continued.
 
In addition to the naming rights, a special "Racers Program" will also be created. The Aeromotive Racers Program will reward $200 to one professional class and one sportsman class at each 2015 Nitro Jam national event. The classes that will be rewarded will change at each event.
 
Aeromotive Inc. founder and president Steve Matusek said, "When we were reviewing opportunities for our brand in 2015, IHRA wasn't even on our radar. But after attending their press conference at PRI and experiencing the passion and excitement the racers, sponsors and executives displayed for the IHRA, I felt that this is an organization that gets it."
 
"Working with IHRA Marketing Director Steve Cole gave us the opportunity to tailor a package to promote our new "Terminator" fuel pump for the Nostalgia Nitro cars along with our distributor, Good Vibration's Motorsports," said Aeromotive Inc., Vice President and General Manager Vic Wood
