Alex Murray and his team are actively seeking partners to join them as sponsors of the #22 Quarter Midget Racing Team. Alex and his team are ready, willing, and capable of providing your company or organization with a platform that can be used to heighten brand awareness and provide positive exposure.

What is sponsorship?                                                                                                                            Just like with professional race teams, sponsors of quarter midget drivers provide financial assistance and/or products and services which allow the drivers to be more competitive in the best and most updated equipment. In exchange, the sponsors benefit in many ways:

• Sponsorship is a great marketing tool, particularly to reach a specific, target population.
• There may be financial benefits for sponsors. Donations and/or sponsorships may be considered tax deductible and/or business expenses (i.e., advertising).
• Sponsorship is a great way to be an integral part of this sport that is just plain, family-centered, old-fashioned fun!!
