AMSOIL and KR4 Bring Brand-New AMSOIL Garage to GNCC Series
Products and Mechanical Help Now Available for all Racers
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (February 15, 2018) – AMSOIL and KR4 Performance have joined forces to provide participants at the 2018 AMSOIL Grand National Cross Country (GNCC) Series a unique opportunity for last-minute repairs and mechanical guidance. The brand-new AMSOIL Garage will be offered at all 13 GNCC rounds, incorporating local AMSOIL vendors, to provide the ultimate customer service experience.
The AMSOIL Garage will be adjoined to KR4 Performance in Sponsor Village and be easily accessible for fans and racers alike. It will offer a safe haven for racers looking to make minor mechanical changes to their machine before heading onto the race course. KR4 Performance mechanics will be on-site to help with tightening chains, replacing handlebars, oil changes and other minor changes. In addition, racers will be able to bring used oil from home to properly dispose of in an oil drum.
Along with the opportunity to aid all event participants, the AMSOIL Garage will be hosting various events to help give everyone the competitive edge from the mechanical experts themselves. A hospitality area will be offered by KR4 Performance for racers to enjoy while their machine is getting tuned up. ODI Grips will also partner with the AMSOIL Garage for an added bonus. With the purchase of three quarts of AMSOIL oil, racers will receive a free pair of ODI grips and grip donuts.
“AMSOIL is dedicated to providing premium oils and lubricants for everyone who cares about their cars, trucks, RVs, UTVs and dirt bikes,” said Kevin D. Kastner, AMSOIL Racing & Event Manager. “Our aim with the AMSOIL Garage is to provide the GNCC family of racers the opportunity to stay in the race. We hope that people will experience our passion for motorsports and see the commitment we have for those who work hard and play hard.”
“The AMSOIL Garage very well could be the best addition to the GNCC race day experience in decades,” said Tim Cotter, Racer Productions Event Director. “The thought of having a qualified mechanic to do minor adjustments and give mechanical advice to our racers is priceless.”
“The KR4/Husqvarna Team is super excited to be working with AMSOIL again this year,” said Frank Keegan, KR4 Performance President. “I had a chance to visit the AMSOIL headquarters this year and I was amazed by their entire operation. They are truly a great company, and to be part of the AMSOIL Garage is an honor.”
You can check out the AMSOIL Garage at the season opening VP Racing Fuels Big Buck GNCC on February 24 and 25 in Union, South Carolina. Tune into Racer TV for live streaming of the 1 p.m. Pro ATV and Bike races in addition to the UTV race.
