Eco-Absorb to Sponsor Jim Dunn Racing at Charlotte\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

After an explosive, yet promising NHRA Mac Tools U.S. Nationals, Jim Dunn Racing and driver Todd Lesenko are right back in the saddle and competing at the NHRA O\u2019Reilly Nationals in Charlotte, NC. this weekend….<\/em><\/p>\n

The team will be introducing another new sponsor to the sport, Eco-Absorb, after great results with their continuing primary and associate sponsor programs for Grime Boss hand wipes and Tap It Brewing this season.\u00a0 Damaging two Funny Car bodies at Indianapolis forced the team to bring out a new Dodge Funny Car body, which will be green in recognition of Eco-Absorb\u2019s corporate colors.<\/p>\n

Eco-Absorb, manufacturer of an environmentally friendly spill clean up product, is headquarted near the race team shop in Southern California, and has an ownership group with strong interest in reaching automotive enthusiasts, as well as the business-to-business connections that exist in the sport.\u00a0 The light weight, super absorbent product provides the perfect material for do-it-yourself mechanics, shop owners, service centers, trucking companies, as well as auto parts, hardware, and mass retailers.\u00a0 Race fans can learn about Eco-Absorb online at www.eco-absorb.com<\/a> and purchase the product through that site, or at HomeDepot.com.<\/p>\n

Todd Lesenko, driver of the Eco-Absorb Funny Car, has taken the week to prepare for the NHRA national event in Charlotte following his excitement of qualifying for the NHRA U.S. Nationals and then suffering an engine explosion that catapulted the Grime Boss Funny Car body.\u00a0 One day later, Lesenko won his opening round match up over #2 qualifier, Jack Beckman, only to suffer another engine explosion which left the team unable to make the call to the starting line for the quarter-finals.\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cIndy obviously had its highs and lows, but we\u2019ve determined the source of the engine failure, and the team re-grouped with new parts, and a new body for our sponsor this weekend, Eco-Absorb\u201d said Lesenko.\u00a0 \u201cThe car is running much quicker and faster and our goal is to qualify and win rounds at Charlotte this weekend to provide great exposure for Eco-Absorb as well as associate sponsors Grime Boss, Tap It, Lincoln Tech and others.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Jim Dunn Racing is not new to bringing sponsors like Eco-Absorb into the sport, and helping them generate new business channels for their products.\u00a0\u00a0 Additional Jim Dunn Racing primary and associate sponsors, Grime Boss and Tap It Brewing have experienced this first hand.\u00a0 Tap It gained distribution into new states and venues along the NHRA tour, and the popular Grime Boss hand wipes have been connected to new retailers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Team Manager, Jon Dunn, is looking forward to this weekend\u2019s race in Charlotte.\u00a0 \u201cIt\u2019s great to introduce a new sponsor and product to NHRA fans\u201d Dunn said.\u00a0 \u201cIn addition to being so much more absorbent that traditional clay-based floor products, Eco-Absorb is much safer to handle and dispose of for the consumer and the environment.\u201d<\/p>\n
