BF Goodrich Returns to Pro Cup For Next Two Seasons
2009 Tire Will Return This Season
USARacing PR Report
USARacing is proud to announce that BFGoodrich “G-Force” Radial will be the Official Tire for the Pro Cup Series in 2010 and 2011.
“BFGoodrich has been with the Series for six consecutive seasons,” said Jimmy Wilson, Vice President/ Series Director. “We are pleased to have their support through 2011. BFGoodrich provides at-track technical support and a state-of-the art radial tire that is second to none. USARacing is proud to have the opportunity to offer such a product to our Series competitors.”
In the upcoming season, BFG will again provide an 11 inch radial tire which was used in 2009 competition.
“We are excited about the opportunity to have a two year partnership with USARacing,” said Darrell Jackson, president and CEO of Jackson Motorsports Group. “It’s been nice to parlay our existing relationship as the BFGoodrich race tire distributor and on-site support into a direct partnership with a race series. The BFGoodrich brand and their short track racing slicks (G-Force Radial) are great fits for the USARacing Pro Cup Series and we are looking forward to watching the re-birth and growth of USARacing. It’s a win-win for everyone.”
USARacing will continue to utilize Jackson Marketing Group (formerly Jackson-Dawson) as the Series’ tire distributor in 2010. JMG will remain the at-track support component for BFGoodrich, servicing the needs of USARacing competitors for the season. For tire sales and service and inquiries regarding the ordering and shipping of practice tires, teams should contact JMG representatives Debra Griffin or Eric Jackson by: phone 800-RACE-BFG (800-722-3234), fax 800-360-4594, or email at TireOrders@jacksonmg.com.

Jackson Marketing Group is an independent entity, separate from USARacing Inc., for the sole purpose of providing tires to the Pro Cup Series competitors.
The Pro Cup teams will race on BF Goodrich tires again for the next two seasons.
