YORK Motorsport Brings New, Green Partner To Red Clay
Evan York, of YORK Motorsport, returns to racing action at East Lincoln Speedway this Saturday in the track’s LiquiFix US Legends Dirt Modified championship.
After a strong start to the season, Evan missed the fourth round of the series to travel west and race sports cars at the 2011 Spokane Festival of Speed’s, Northwest Grand Prix.
“I enjoyed my recent time racing sports cars on a road course,” Evan said, “However, it was tough missing a points-paying round of the US Legends Dirt Modifieds. We were running second in the overall points heading into that event - and now we’re not. Regardless, we’re ready to get back to the red clay of East Lincoln Speedway this weekend, and have some fun!"
Joining Evan for this event will be a new partner to YORK Motorsport, LiquiFix, makers of a non-toxic multi-purpose lubricant.
Recently, LiquiFix announced sponsorship of the US Legends Dirt Modified series at East Lincoln Speedway.
This personal services partnership with Evan York and YORK Motorsport is in addition to that support.
“LiquiFix is very pleased to develop our partnership with the US Legends series and the East Lincoln Speedway,” Michael Lasavage, Vice President of LiquiFix said. “We look forward to working together and growing with the series as well as the associates within.... The talent and competition is very exciting….”
Understanding that motorsport is an obvious producer of carbon emissions, Kevin York of YORK Motorsport made the decision in 2007 to partner with leading carbon-offset organization CarbonFund.org. This partnership with LiquiFix is seen as a furthering of that effort.
"We recognize the important role we can play in reducing carbon emissions. We can help balance our carbon output by using effective and environmentally friendly products like LiquiFix. Their partnership with Evan and the US Legends Dirt Modified series at East Lincoln Speedway is an educational platform for both racing competitors and fans alike. It may not seem like much, but every use of LiquiFix is a small step towards a less-toxic race car, race track, workshop - and world." noted YORK Motorsport team principal, Kevin York.
