Yokohama Tire Corporation along with Radial Tire Company have partnered up to sponsor Autocrossers, Incorporated’s 2008 Championship Autocross Series. As a result, the "2008 Yokohama Tire/Radial Tire Championship Autocross Series, presented by Autocrossers, Inc", promises to be the best and biggest yet.
Yokohama and Radial have put together a generous sponsorship package which includes tires, hats, jackets and more. In addition, representatives from Yokohama will put on tire tech sessions at select events where competitors new to the sport can learn tips to help them get most out of their tires.
Yokohama, which was one of the first manufacturers to bring “R-compound” tires to the Solo community, and Radial Tire Company, which has supported the local motorsport competitors for many years, will award up to six Yokohama Advantires to competitors for the 2008 season. Tire awards include:
- 2 tires which will be raffled at the year-end Solo awards ceremony
- 2 tires to the most consistent driver in four out of five Autocrossers, Inc., events, regardless of the competitor’s tire brand; details on the Radial Tire Consistency Cup forthcoming.
- 2 tires to the fastest driver on Yokohama tires throughout the year (must runYokohama tires and have a minimum of three stickers on their car)
Prizes will be awarded via vouchers to Radial Tire, and winners can claim any DOT-legal Advan tires including R-compounds in sizes 19 inches or smaller (does not include slicks).
Autocrossers, Inc., will be holding five Solo events at FedEx Field in Landover,Md. The first event is May 10. Competitors can sign up for a season subscription via DLBracing.com.
