G-Phactory Kart Racing, long-time distributor for the Sodi Kart product line, is pleased to announce their new partnership with TruSpeed Motorsports (www.TruSpeed.com).
Looking to bridge the gap from karting to the often scary world of
professional motorsports, G-Phactory and TruSpeed will implement a
driver development and placement program as they look to help aspiring
race car drivers make the next step up the motorsports ladder.
"I
couldn't be any more excited to be working with all of the guys at
TruSpeed," expressed G-Phactory President Preston Newberry. "They have
welcomed us with open arms and I am confident that this will turn into a
great program for all of us. We have some great programs in the works
for 2012 and beyond and we will be rolling those out very shortly. It
has been a crazy process to finalize everything with all of the racing
going on right now but things are getting sorted and we encourage
everyone to come check out our new home."
TruSpeed
Motorsports is one of the leading Porsche supported race teams in the
United States and is accustomed to winning. Having claimed the World
Challenge GT class championship with former karter Patrick Long in 2011,
TruSpeed will welcome the SuperKarts! USA (SKUSA) KZ2 winning team with
open arms.
"I
am very excited to work closely with the Preston and everyone at
G-Phactory/Sodi Racing. Having G-Phactory in our facility is a win-win
for them and for TruSpeed," expressed Rob Morgan, Founder and President
of TruSpeed Motorsports. "It gives TruSpeed and G-Phactory a true
"ladder system" for driving for all of our customers. The customer base
for each company is very similar and I believe both companies have
positioned themselves to offer services that most race shops can't
offer. My daughter has done some karting with Preston and Andrick, and I
can't say enough good things about them. Needless, to say I am looking
forward to our new opportunity with G-Phactory."
Already
making the move to their new location in Costa Mesa, California,
G-Phactory will have their own dedicated shop with in the 29,000-sq/f
confines that TruSpeed Motorsports operates from. Not only will
G-Phactory have one of the best race team work shops to prepare
equipment in, they will also include an immaculate showroom for new and
existing customers to enjoy their latest offerings as well as browse
some great display vehicles that TruSpeed Motorsports offers.
Tyler
Tadavic, Truspeed General Manager stated, "We are very excited and
pleased to have the G-Phactory operation in house with us. They provide a
great service that will be very valuable for our customers and vise
versa. Its a great opportunity to work together and build a program that
will encompass all aspects of the motorsports business."
G-Phactory
Karting Company and TruSpeed Motorsports have planned a Grand Opening /
Open House for Friday, April 6, 2012, the week before the famed Long
Beach Grand Prix. The shop will be open for the general public, as well
as new, existing and potential customers to come and see what this new
partnership is all about.
