SOD spec tires are now available.  For more information and to purchase tires, call (260) 668-4912 or email dave@icarracing.com.

SOD will continue to provide competitors with sponsor panels that will allow them to install as few as 6 decals instead of numerous individual decals.  There will be a panel for primary sponsors and one for secondary sponsors; SOD decals are separate.  A few decals for each sponsor partner will still be available on a limited basis; decals for sponsor partners that join us after panel production will need to be supplied individually also.

The primary sponsor panel is 17” wide by 16.5” high.  The secondary sponsor panel is 33” wide by 4” high.  Like last year, the panels are available with either a black or white background.  Logos are arranged to make it easy to cut the panels into sections if needed.
