COMP Cams expands awards program for USMTS drivers, named Official Cam of the USMTS


MEMPHIS, Tenn. (March 21) – COMP Cams® is famous for delivering horsepower, reliability and gas mileage to customers worldwide, and in 2013 the Memphis-Tenn.-based company will deliver awards and accolades to United States Modified Touring Series competitors like never before.

A mainstay as sponsor of the USMTS Engine Builder of the Year Award, COMP Cams® will be the Official Cam of the USMTS for 2013 and has increased their awards program as well as their contribution to the regional and national points funds as sponsor of the USMTS “Bonus Bucks” program for drivers with shining attendance report cards.

“COMP Cams® and the USMTS are both committed to superior quality, and we are both committed to the long-term success of America’s machine shops, enthusiasts and home-grown engine builders that are truly the engine of auto racing,” said Todd Staley, President of the USMTS. “We are proud to continue our partnership with COMP Cams® and are honored by their dedication to the sport and investment in our drivers.”

As part of their contingency award program for the 2013 campaign, COMP Cams® will provide USMTS competitors and engine builders with year-end product awards worth nearly $4,000 plus $500 cash to the 2013 COMP Cams® Engine Builder of the Year.

COMP Cams® will also provide a beautiful trophy to the COMP Cams® Engine Builder of the Year at the season-ending awards banquet.

The COMP Cams® Engine Builder of the Year Award was launched at the start of the 2008 season to recognize the masters of the horsepower-making craft whose dedication, hard work and unparalleled expertise propel the mud-slinging USMTS Modifieds around America's finest dirt ovals.

Mullins Race Engines emerged as the COMP Cams Engine Builder of the Year for the third straight year in 2012. In all, 122 different engine builders from across the fruited plain scored points in the COMP Cams® Engine Builder of the Year competition.

Quarter Master renews partnership program with USMTS


LAKE ZURICH, Ill. (March 21) – Officials from the United States Modified Touring Series announced today that Quarter Master has renewed their contingency program for USMTS drivers again in 2013.

“We are honored to announce Quarter Master’s continued involvement with the USMTS,” said USMTS President Todd Staley. “Quarter Master has been with us since the beginning, which goes to show that their product line is the best of the best.”

In addition to contributing to the USMTS points funds, Quarter Master will dole out product awards valued at more than $2,000 to the top finishers in both regional and national points as part of their 2013 program.

In order to be eligible, drivers must display the approved Quarter Master decal in prominent location on both sides of the racecar.

Located in Lake Zurich, Ill., Quarter Master began operations in 1972. Since that date, Quarter Master products have enjoyed a long history of track-proven race-winning results. That long-standing enjoyment has come from a race-team-like effort with attention to detail, and from listening and responding to the racer. Quarter Master products are built to exceed the racer’s demand and need for reliability, high performance and durability.

Quarter Master provides winning clutches and driveline components to racers from superspeedways to bullrings, from the IRL to rally cars and from NASCAR to the USMTS. Quarter Master products are designed from the knowledge and experience of racers utilizing state-of-the-art engineering software such as AutoCAD, 3D modeling and FEA. In addition, Quarter Master products are CNC-manufactured by an experienced staff to the toughest quality standards to outlast and outrun the competition.
