Grassroots Event is Set for June 30th-July 1st at New Hampshire Motor SpeedwayWhen the New England Short Track Showdown at New Hampshire Motor Speedway was announced back in December, it was designed to be an event for the grassroots asphalt short track racer. The concept of the event is to put those dedicated competitors on the largest racing stage of New England to have a shot at glory.
So now, as a presenting sponsor for the race weekend is unveiled, it is only natural that a company that is dedicated to the needs of the short track racer will enjoy the naming rights to the event.
ARBodies will serve as the presenting sponsor for the race, which is now to be known as the New England Short Track Showdown presented by ARBodies.
“We are happy to extend our partnership with ARBodies beyond the NEMST and SS Showdown Series to offer competitors in all fendered divisions certificates to get them through the tough times the sports brings to us all. ARBodies has been a staple in all levels of motorsports and this event highlights beginners to premier divisions, a natural fit.” Said NESTS promoter Bob Guptill
