ARCOPLATE joins UARA as Sponsor
The United Auto Racing Association (UARA) is pleased to welcome ARCOPLATE as the new sponsor for the Association’s contingency sponsor program.
The “ARCOPLATE Hard Charger” program will be starting at Hickory Speedway on June 23. The award will be given to the driver with the highest points recorded from eight of the last ten races in the series. The winner will receive a prize of $1000 (one thousand dollars), which will be presented at the 2012 UARA Championship Awards Banquet.
As a bonus, UARA drivers that promote the ARCOPLATE decal on their cars will be eligible for the year-end ARCOPLATE Hard Charger Award. Points will be based on the current UARA points system. Teams that compete in the last 10 events will accumulate points and be allowed to throw out the two worst finishes to come up with their best possible total points to vie for the award.
ARCOPLATE is partnering with young Australian driver Brodie Kostecki, who will be making his debut at the UARA at the Hickory event.
Alloy Steel International, the manufacturer of ARCOPLATE, is an Australian based company with operations around the world, including the US. ARCOPLATE is the world’s most wear resistant fused alloy steel plate and is used predominantly in mining and mineral processing to overcome the effects of abrasion and material hang-up. ARCOPLATE is used by the major mining groups and smaller operators alike, across 25 countries around the world.
The sponsorship of UARA strongly ties into the philosophy of ARCOPLATE. According to US VP Sales and Marketing, Bud Sprouse, “ARCOPLATE is more than just a supplier, we prefer to partner with our customers and share our experience - hence our motto ‘Your Partner in Wear Solutions’. The US is an important market for our company, and we love motorsport, so we welcome our new partnership with the UARA”
"We are pleased to have a world wide company like Alloysteel join the UARA family as a marketing partner to showcase the product ARCOPLATE through our UARA teams. We look forward to a great relationship" said Kerry Bodenhamer UARA President
