Sunoco & Schoenfeld to Support SSS GMP Event
125 Lapper Set for Saturday, July 12th
TRACK PR - JEFFERSON, GA – Gresham Motorsports Park announced today that Sunoco Racing Fuels and Schoenfeld Headers have partnered to support the Southern Super Series stock car race at GMP this Saturday, July 12.
The Sunoco 125 Presented By Schoenfeld Headers will feature some of the country's top Super Late Model drivers and teams in a 125-lap battle on the Gresham Motorsports Park half-mile oval.
The event will later be featured in a one-hour tape-delayed television broadcast and beamed into more than 107 million homes nationally on multiple cable, network and satellite outlets.
Saturday's 125-lap headline event will be joined by 30-lap features in the GMP Outlaw Late Model and GMP Pro Truck divisions.
"We are so fortunate to have Sunoco Racing Fuels - and its Green Oil Company Sunoco distributor in Fairburn, GA - be the title partner of the first Southern Super Series race to ever be broadcast on national television," said GMP general manager John Close. "Sunoco has been a great partner to racing for decades and their support of the Southern Super Series in recent years has propelled that division to one of national importance as well. Any recognition or benefit Sunoco and Green Oil Company get from this new association with GMP has already been well earned."
Since the mid-1960s, Sunoco Racing Fuels have been the standard of the motorsports industry and today it's line racing fuels are used around the world
by more sanctioning bodies, tracks, racers and engine builders than all other racing gasoline combined.
Sunoco distributes racing gasoline to more than 500 racetracks in the United States - including Gresham Motorsports Park. It is also the Official Fuel of the NASCAR Sprint Cup, Nationwide and Truck Series as well as the Official Fuel Partner of INDYCAR.
As part of an expanding partnership with Gresham Motorsports Park, Green Oil Company has agreed to add a barrel of Sunoco 110 Racing Fuel to the $5,000 first-place prize money for Saturday's Southern Super Series event.
Sunoco Racing Fuel and Green Oil Company will also be featured as the presenting partner of the Starting Line-Up scroll in both the tape-delayed national television broadcast of Saturday's Southern Super Series race and the 31st-Annual World Crown 300 at GMP on August 9.
Meanwhile, Schoenfeld Headers will serve as the Presenting Partner of Saturday's Sunoco 125. Since 1974, the Van Buren, Arkansas company has been providing circle track racers with industry standard headers and accessories.
"This isn't the first time that Schoenfeld Headers has been the presenting sponsor of a race at GMP," Close stated. "They've been a great partner to us since Gresham Motorsports Park swung open the gates on our new facility in 2009. You can't have too many good partners and with companies like Schoenfeld Headers, Sunoco Racing Fuels and Green Oil Company, we've definitely aligned ourselves with three of the best."
