Toyo Tire USA Corp. is continuing its VIP track services and on-site hospitality area at the 25-Hours of Thunderhill, the longest endurance road race in North America.
“Toyo Tires continues to demonstrate the importance they place on the road racing community,” said Jeremy Croiset, NASA director of business development. “This VIP program has quickly become a staple at the biggest pro-am endurance race in North America drawing interest from nearly every team in the paddock and we’re thrilled Toyo Tires is hosting it again this year.”
During this year’s race from Dec. 3-4 at Thunderhill Raceway Park in the Northern California foothills, competitors using Toyo Proxes tires will have access to the Toyo Tires hospitality area that will provide meals on Friday (lunch and dinner), Saturday (breakfast, lunch, dinner and a midnight snack), and Sunday (breakfast and lunch).
Registered participants will also receive free mounting and balancing services from Thunderhill AIM Tire on all preorders and via trackside service at Thunderhill Raceway Park from Dec. 2-4, Toyo said.
According to Toyo, the program applies to racers using the Toyo Proxes RS1 full-slick, the Proxes RR DOT competition, the Proxes R888 and the new Proxes R888R tires in dry conditions; while the Proxes R1R and Proxes RA1 are approved for wet use.
Space is limited and racers must register for the VIP hospitality at toyotires.com/races-and-places/racer-direct-program and tire purchases must be made through AIM Tire or Thunderhill AIM Tire through Nov. 21.
Toyo Tires has been the Official Tire of NASA for 14 years and has provided VIP track services to support racers in the 25-Hours of Thunderhill for five years.
