RacerSpacer Becomes an Award Sponsor with CRA for the Remainder of 2009

Salem, IN (August 18, 2009) – Champion Racing Association officials have announced that RacerSpacer has agreed to become an Award Sponsor with the CRA Super Series for the remaining events on the 2009 schedule. Starting with this Sunday’s Budweiser CRA 150 Presented By The Kyle Busch Foundation, RacerSpacer will award a $50 Product Certificate to the driver that leads the most laps at each series event with the RacerSpacer Lap Leader Award. RacerSpacer will also award a set of RacerSpacers by random draw of the top 15 in final series points at the 2009 Champion Racing Association Banquet.

Eco-Composites, the parent company of RacerSpacer, is a Holland, Michigan based company that develops and delivers sustainable products for a variety of industries. With over thirty years of experience working on new materials and product development in the auto industry and beyond, they look for opportunities to replace traditional materials with high-value, eco-friendly options that improve performance.

Eco-Composites became interested in racecar parts through our affiliation with Perfect Circle Racing, and this led them to explore product design for the racing community. The RacerSpacer is a wheel spacer system that shares performance and design criteria with a fan spacer that they build for cooling system fans in the heavy truck industry. It is made with a sustainable glass fiber composite, which offers the strength of traditional materials such as aluminum or steel. With integrated aluminum bushings co-processed into the recycled composite material, the parts are a fraction of the weight of other spacers, with a much smaller environmental footprint. The spacers come in five stackable, color-coded sizes from 1/16 inch up to 1/2 inch and will fit 5x5 and 5x4.75 bolt patterns.

Perfect Circle Racecars has been instrumental in the development of this product through input and field-testing. Driver Brian Campbell has been very successful this season with RacerSpacers on his racecar. He pointed out that the spacers "literally take pounds off our unsprung weight, and that's a huge advantage." RacerSpacer looks forward to hearing from other drivers and crews about how the RacerSpacer works for them. They will continue to use sustainable materials and environmentally friendly approaches to design many more parts for racing professionals.
