Born and Made in the USA- Invis-A-rack and Universe Racing Ready for Pocono

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? Read More
