Born and Made in the USA- Invis-A-rack and
Universe Racing Ready for Pocono
Berwick, PA (May 14,2012)- Universe Racing is proud to announce
that it has teamed up with Donny McCall of Sparta, NC and his
company, “Invis-A-Rack” for the upcoming ARCA Racing Series,
presented by Menards event at the freshly repaved Pocono
International Raceway. Since airing on “Shark Tank” on ABC in
January and then on the ABC Worldwide news earlier this month,
Invis-A-Rack has been on an upward trend because of its
popularity of being an innovative, all American made product.
The partnership between both parties at Pocono in the American
Stock Car Racing Series (ARCA) is a perfect blend.
According to the company website, Invis-A-Rack is the most
innovative cargo management system ever developed. Their claim
their patented design allows users to transform his or her
pickup truck into a very versatile truck. The Invis-A-Rack lets
you maintain the look of your original pickup truck during the
time you don’t need a pickup or ladder rack and it’s designed
for multiple uses.
The Invis-A-Rack isn’t just a kayak and canoe rack. It’s not
just a work truck rack. It’s all of that and more. It’s the four
wheel drive of cargo racks and because of its design, it’s the
most fuel efficient truck rack on the market today. The Invis-A-Rack
is proudly made in the USA and is designed to carry up to 500
pounds of tools or toys.
All of the members from Universe Racing, especially the driver
from Hazelton, PA, Steve Fox, are thrilled about the upcoming
ARCA 200 and hope to have a great showing in the June 9th
event.
“We has an excellent car in the last event here”, noted Fox.
“Although this place is totally different now and with the new
asphalt, we’ll be hauling the mail here for sure. I’m excited to
have the opportunity to race for Tony Aquilino and Universe
Racing and I’m ecstatic to have Donny and Invis-A-Rack on board
with us for this upcoming race. I feel that Donny’s approach on
business is honest and he’s destined to do well with all of his
hard work and dedication that he’s put into it.”
McCall is equally excited about teaming up with Fox and Universe
Racing for Pocono and said, “We’re excited to have the
opportunity to work with Universe Racing for the upcoming Pocono
event. Who would have thought a few months back that Invis-A-Rack
would be the main sponsor on a racecar at Pocono? I’m really
looking forward to working with Universe Racing and I hope that
we can build our relationship moving forward.

Steve
Fox and Jim Peruto Team up for SVRA Sebring Endurance Classic
(March 6, 2012)- Steve Fox has been known to race anything with
wheels and that was the case last weekend when Fox and his
teammate and car owner for the event, Jim Peruto headed south to
Sebring, FL to run the 2012 Sports Vintage Racing Association's
"Sebring Endurance Classic". Both drivers had a blast in the
three-day event and they even brought back some decent finishes
along the way.
Following practice and qualifying sessions, Fox took to the
track Sunday in a stockcar that was formerly driven by 2012
Daytona 500 winner, Matt Kenseth. The car is a gem of sorts, as
it is one of the only Chevrolets that Kenseth had driven in his
NASCAR career.
Fox finished the race in the fourth position and then he and
Peruto set their sights on the enduro event.
Both Fox and Peruto teamed up and both planned to take turns at
the wheel on Sunday in the 90-minute enduro. Peruto took the
green flag and ran the first 35 minutes before handing the
controls to Fox. Fox headed back to the speedway and
unfortunately the panhard bar on the car broke and ended the day
for both drivers.
“We had a blast and I really have to thank Jim Peruto for the
opportunity”, noted Fox. “We had a great car and it felt so good
getting back into one and running Sebring, it’s a great
facility”.
He continued, “The only way this trip could have been any better
is if Tony Aquilino, the owner of the ARCA team that I driver
for could have made it. That would have been icing on the cake!”
Although they didn’t bring home the big trophy in this one, both
drivers are excited about hitting the track again with hopes of
the overall victory.
Making like a big wheel at NASCAR
What does somebody who
unintentionally puts racing stripes on cars because she
can’t parallel park (I was born without that gene) know from
NASCAR?
Not enough to fill even a little bit of a stock car gas
tank. Listen to me; you’d never know less than a week ago I
wasn’t even sure what a stock car was.
I had a five-speed Mazda Miata convertible forever that they
practically had to pry me out of after I traded it in; I
loved it that much. Does that count?
