Default Toyota Official Vehicle of Raceway Park

Old Bridge Township, NJ (February 21, 2007) – Old Bridge Township Raceway Park officials announced today a multi-year agreement with Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc. (TMS) to designate Toyota the official vehicle of Raceway Park.

”Raceway Park is delighted to have Toyota as our official vehicle. We feel the full line of Toyota Vehicles will perfectly fit our spectator and participant demographic. With our partnership we will add to their already impressive growth and exposure in the Tri-State area" said, Raceway Park's President Michael Napp.

As the official vehicle of Raceway Park, Toyota will have the entire new fleet of Toyota vehicles on display at all Raceway Park events. This means that Raceway Park spectators and participants will be able to see the latest Toyotas, including the newly redesigned Toyota Tundra, Tacoma, 4Runners, and much more. Toyota will have great print and web exposure in Raceway Park’s Official Newspaper and website. Toyota will also receive high traffic signage around the venue and supply Toyota support vehicles for Raceway Park personnel.

Raceway Park is a 42-year-old multi-purpose motor sports venue established in 1965. The venue includes two drag strips, four motor cross and practice tracks, a competition karting track, autocross course, drifting course, 1.3-mile road course, and more than three million square feet of pavement for automotive Ride & Drive, dealer and consumer events. More than 200 events per year and over one million attending enthusiasts and participants make Raceway Park the busiest motor sports venue in the New York/New Jersey Metro Area.

Toyota is being agressive when it comes to motorsports. NASCAR, (whoops, was that jet fuel?)and the Monterey Historics last year and this year. I see now the NASCAR Dodge Save Mart 350 at Infenion is now the Save Mart Toyota 350 at Infenion.

Wow, does anyone see the irony of a company that does not make a single performance car sponsoring a racetrack. Toyota must be doing something right with all the money they are making but it's still funny.

Chris Rado along with all the other who race Scions at RaceWay Park are huge hits when it comes to fan favorites. By Toyota doing this .. its just one step closer to getting into the mind set of midlde America. This is a win win situation IMO.

Big props to Don Jonson, Scot Smith and the guys over at Urban Racer for helping this along. It all started 3 years ago with the very first VIP and it has grown into a monster that just needs more and more attention. I know personally every time i attend a VIP the Scion section always gets rave reviews.

I really liked the MR2 Spyder myself, it needed the 2ZZGE under the engine cover to make it perfect though. I just want Toyota to come out with something that at least has a "G" series head and RWD (or AWD) with a fully indenendent suspension and a manual transmission. I think I am just dreaming but I can dream.
