NORWALK, Ohio (January 24, 2012) – The International Hot Rod Association (IHRA) is pleased to announce that Indiana-based Moser Engineering, the industry leader in performance axles and rear ends, will be the presenting sponsor for the Summit SuperSeries and Summit Team Finals sportsman programs beginning in 2012. Designed as a championship program for bracket racers around the world, the Summit SuperSeries has crowned nearly two dozen champions and awarded over $1 million in cash and prizes since 2002 and now, with the added support of Moser Engineering, the program will only continue to grow and provide the biggest stage in grassroots sportsman racing today. "Moser Engineering has always been known as one of the leading sponsors with our support of the sportsman ranks. This continued relationship with IHRA shows our commitment to that relationship," said Jeff Anderson, Moser Engineering Marketing Director. "We enjoy going to the track and racing ourselves and getting to partner up and promote programs like this is just part of who we are as a company." In addition to adding support to the Summit SuperSeries program, Moser Engineering will be the largest backer of the dragster build program which awards a brand new dragster to the Top class winner at the IHRA World Finals. Moser Engineering will also be returning as a major contingency sponsor for all levels of IHRA racing, including providing significant contingency at the Summit Team Finals and Summit SuperSeries championship races as well as rewarding the tracks that the racers represent.  The Summit SuperSeries presented by Moser Engineering is the World Championship program for IHRA member track sportsman racers. Providing the base for the Summit SuperSeries are the more than 90 member tracks and thousands of IHRA racers around the globe. Each track determines its Summit SuperSeries champion through head-to-head competition throughout the year. At the conclusion of the season each track's Summit SuperSeries champion then moves on to race other track champions at the divisional level at the Summit Team Finals presented by Moser Engineering. Those drivers that emerge victorious from the Summit Team Finals will meet at the IHRA World Finals for the Summit SuperSeries World Championship. "Moser Engineering is proud to partner with companies like Summit and organizations like IHRA that go out of their way to show sportsman racers they are the reason for our companies' success," Anderson said. "The racers support of us allows us to be successful and we appreciate getting the chance to pay it back."
