ROD END SUPPLY RETURNS AS I-70'S SEASON OPENER TITLE SPONSOR
ODESSA, MO. (January 31, 2024) – Rod End Supply, a leading provider of rod ends, radius rods, and other specialty racing products, returns as the title sponsor of the 2024 I-70 Motorsports Park season opener, the Open Wheel Classic, for the second consecutive year. POWRi WAR (Wingless Auto Racing) Midwest Wingless Racing Assoc. (MWRA) and WINS (Western Iowa Non-Wing Sprints) come together to compete on Saturday, April 20, 2024, to earn a $3,000 payday at I-70 Speedway in Odessa, Missouri.
“Rod End Supply is excited to continue our partnership with I-70 Motorsports Park,” said Robert Douglas, Rod End Supply President. “The facility is beautiful with all the amenities that will draw race fans from near and far. We believe Casey (Shuman) is the right person with a proven track record to bring back and surpass the track’s historical influence in the Midwest where Rod End Supply has called home for thirty-five years in business. We can’t wait for the season to kick off April 20 with the Rod End Supply Open Wheel Classic.”
Non-Wing Sprint Cars are widely considered the traditional sprint cars, dating back to the first sprint cars in the 1930s and 1940s. The second annual Rod End Supply Open Wheel Classic will pay $3,000 to win and $400 to start the A-Main event. POWRi’s 305 Winged Sprints will also be on-site as the event’s support class competing for $1,200 to win and $250 to start the A-Main event.
“Rod End Supply has been a long-time supporter of drivers, teams, and events and we’re thrilled to continue our partnership with Bob and his team,” said Casey Shuman, General Manager at I-70 Motorsports Park. “The staff at Rod End Supply has been servicing the Kansas City racing community and beyond since 1989, so they are well versed in the history behind the facility at I-70 which makes this partnership even more special. I personally have been a Rod End Supply customer for many years, and I’m excited to work alongside them in 2024.”
