CONTINGENCY CONNECTION RACE MARKETING PROGRAM

Do you have a product for the masses of weekly grass-roots racers or the thousands of spectators that attend hometown weekly race events? If so…the Contingency Connection is your ONE STOP SHOP to reach this huge volume of racers and fans! The Contingency Connection markets your products and services directly to end-users that make up the great sport of racing, resulting in increased brand awareness and product recognition. Seventeen years running, it is a tried and proven event-marketing program that puts sponsors where they need to be…”at the track WITH their customers.”

In today’s economy, performance manufacturers are replacing big print ad budgets with on-site event marketing. The Contingency Connection is an effective, affordable; roll-up-your-sleeves…make sense approach to reach the do-it-yourself weekend warriors of the nation’s most popular form of racing!

Contingency Connection sponsors are promoted at NASCAR, DIRT, NHRA, ASCS, IHRA, and numerous other sanctioned tracks. The Contingency Connection includes exposure and sales at asphalt and dirt oval tracks, drag tracks, import, diesel, and motorcycle events. In addition, since every race car is towed to the track, the CC has expanded our reach to include a tow vehicle awards program which will potentially DOUBLE sales for many sponsors.
