SS Racing Inc., founding company of The FanZCar (www.thefanzcar.com), a fan-based sponsorship program announces it has acquired Fans Motorsports (www.fansmotorsports.com) a like-organization that provided a sponsorship last year for Jay Robinson Racing within NASCAR’s Busch racing series. SS Racing Inc. is committed to bringing new and exciting endeavors to the world of motor sports. The first endeavor launched is The FanZCar (The Fans Car), the first and only fan-based primary sponsorship program for a race team within NASCAR. Important characteristics of this fan-based sponsorship are to change the fans involvement, within the sport they love, from being merely spectators to now participants. This will be accomplished by allowing the members/participating sponsors to be directly involved in decisions typically associated with the sponsor. Such decisions include determining the racecars paint and color scheme, which team or teams to provide sponsorship for, what events and/or races to run, among others. Scott Stricker, President of SS Racing Inc., The FanZCar had this to say about the deal. “We are very pleased with the acquisition of Fans Motorsports. We felt it would benefit our program to combine the two organizations and consolidate our member base to provide a solid foundation for which to build on into the future. This acquisition demonstrates our commitment to The FanZCar program and our goal to be one of NASCAR’s longest running team sponsors throughout the years.” The combined organization will operate under The FanZCar brand and logo. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. The FanZCar will be sponsoring Black Cat Racing (www.bcr13.com) in NASCAR’s Busch Racing Series in 2004. Membership within The FanZCar starts at $37.00 per year.
