Community Sponsorship

 BRIAN BARKER RACING - GET TO KNOW OUR TEAM

OUR MISSION
To win races. Now that we have several trophies and 2 plaques, the team decided we just want to have some more for our shelf and for pink bunny to take care of, (our official unofficial mascot).

OUR HISTORY
Barker Racing began 1 year after Race City Speedway opened. Our first Race Car was a White Dodge Fury, progressing to a Buick Lasabre and then into the Camero (which we still use in other races such as bommers and out of town events), 2004 brought us into the Malibu which is the current car we are racing. Although our Cars and colours have changed (Even a pink: car for the Mothers Day Enduro) the spirit of the team and the commitment to the sport has not.

Our team has had many opportunities for celebration, and a few that weren't (such as when our Race Car, Trailer (the second one to be a victim) and the Truck were all stolen the day before the last race of the year 2003. It has not stopped us our commitment to the sport is evident in all that we do. We have raced in Rain, Snow and even Hail with one goal in mind bringing home a trophy. The racing relationship at the track is one of partnership and friendship, although we race against each other in the Pitts we're all one team each helping the other with whatever is needed. This is what makes racing what it is, the only sport where all the teams are just as important as the individual car; in our case #14.

Black and yellow are our current colours and they certainly attract a great deal of attention, just the way we like it for our sponsors. We have been talked about on Radio, TV and Newspapers throughout our Racing History and we've even been in some good crashes that made it into the newspapers. We have had many years of success and plan to continue in the future.

SPONSORSHIP
Sponsorship is an integral part of racing. Racing can become very expensive. There are many items that need to be taken care of just to get out to the race. We start the season off by getting the car and stripping it, rebuilding it and getting it ready for the season this includes buying parts, tires, and fuel, then the painting begins, the use of many rolls of duck tape (the secret method of keeping it all together) and yes then the lettering for all the wonderful sponsors who have joined our team. Now the preparation has begun we must get it to the track pay the entry fees, make sure you have a scorer and a pit crew, all of which is separate admission to the track, and of course the drinks and food to keep the crew on their toes. This is done every race and when you have 18 races a year it all adds up. That's why we need sponsor help.

WHY SPONSOR US?
Sponsoring us provides several benefits. A presence in the racing business. Advertising before, during and after every race. The Car, Driver and or crew can schedule special appearances at your place of business for promotional purposes. You even get support from us, the team members and crew. The visual impact of the race car speaks for itself and its an eye catcher as the race car is transported to and from the track on an open trailer. There is the possibility the car may be photographed and featured in the newspapers as well as on TV.

When you're our sponsor you join our team and you're visible the entire race! The most important point is of course when we win you win.

BE A SPONSOR
