SYRACUSE, NY – In a major sponsorship announcement, Mach 1 Chassis from Mechanicsburg, Pa. has come aboard as the title sponsor for each A-Main in 2018 for the 35^th Anniversary Lucas Oil Empire Super Sprints (ESS). Each full point A-Main will now pay at least $300 to take the green.

It was announced just before the season took the initial green flag that each A-Main was to be $275 to start, now with Mach-1’s backing that has been increased to $300.

“We just have so many great sponsors that help all teams who come to an ESS event and Mach 1 has been a major force over the past few years,” noted ESS President Chuck Miller, “With their help it’s great to know that every team that makes the A-Main with ESS this season will take home at least $300. Racing always will be an expensive sport and we hope this helps just a little bit.”

The $2,000 to win, $300 to start A-Main’s will begin on May 18^th and 19^th at the Outlaw and Thunder Mountain Speedways.  There are also several A-Main’s that will continue to pay more to take the green which includes all events in Quebec which are $500 to start and also the event at Cornwall that pays $325 to take the green.

Mach 1 has also been the title sponsor of Hard Luck Award since 2012 where the recipient receives a complete frame from Mach 1. ESS teams running Mach 1 sprint cars include Matt Tanner, Matt Billings, Jeff Cook, Coleman Gulick, Alex Vigneault, Parker Evans, Tommy Wickham, Dale Gosselin, Yan Bilodeau and more.

The Mach 1 shop in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, was recently renovated and features all the latest manufacturing and welding equipment to build top-of-the-line race car chassis and parts. In addition to chassis, Mach 1 fabricates front and rear bumpers, nerf bars, front axles, wing posts, wing trees, as well as repairs chassis by other manufacturers. There’s also a state-of-the-art shock dyno and flow bench to test fuel pumps, fuel systems, and nosels.
