NASA's American Iron Racing

The National Auto Sport Association (NASA) is pleased to announce that Hawk Performance has become the "official brake products of NASA" for the 2008 season. As part of this new partnership, Hawk Performance has launched a substantial national contingency program that will benefit NASA's entire membership. In addition to all regional events, Hawk will provide significant contingency programs for the National Championships at Mid Ohio and the 25 Hours of Thunderhill.

"NASA has become a major force in the North American motorsports market" stated Carl Harbert, Director of Global Marketing, "'We are very excited to be associated with such a professionally run operation whose growing membership represents what is truly unique and powerful about American grassroots racing." Jerry DeMarino, Director of Performance Products added "Considering our dominate position with the NASA community, we felt it was important to show our support and create a means to educate new racers about the significant advantages of our brake pad products."

NASA estimates that the 2008 Hawk Performance contingency program is worth over $600,000 in cash and "Hawk Bucks" and is immediately available for all NASA competitors to enjoy. For more information on the Hawk Performance contingency program, please visit NASA's main website at www.drivenasa.com.

NASA welcomes any company to offer contingency program to the racers. NASA does not charge a participation fee and will post a link on www.americanironracing.com to your companies website with the description of the program. NASA will not be responsible for administration of awards and prize distribution. If the company needs verification of a specific part used during a race, a NASA official will be available to sign a "verification form" which must be part of your contingency package and must require the racer to bring the form and the vehicle to the official for signature. Please remember that contingency programs are designed to award a racer that uses a product and makes good marketing material because that product is proving to be effective. Any company that wishes to become a presenting sponsor solely for the sake of marketing exposure or would like the series to make a piece of equipment a required specification (spec) is also welcomed to contact series officials. Please send a link to your website that details your contingency program to contingency@drivenasa.com and we will get it posted.
