K1 RaceGear and Indianapolis Motor Speedway Announce Multi-Year Partnership

 

K1 RaceGear is extremely excited and honored to announce today that we've begun a new multi-year partnership with the legendary Indianapolis Motor Speedway!

This means we will now supply our high-quality, super-protective fire suits for IMS Track Rescue, Recovery, and Medical staff.

As a result, you'll be seeing plenty of K1 RaceGear during all of the exciting race events that IMS holds, such as: IndyCar's Indianapolis 500, GMR Grand Prix, and Gallagher Grand Prix; NASCAR's Verizon 200 at the Brickyard and Pennzoil 150 at the Brickyard; IMSA's TireRace.com Battle on the Bricks, USAC's Driven2SaveLives BC39, and Intercontinental GT Challenge's Indianapolis 8 Hour endurance race. 

"There is nothing bigger in motorsport than the Indianapolis 500 and Indianapolis Motor Speedway,” says our director of motorsports and marketing, Jacob Brown. “IMS' commitment to safety and innovation aligns perfectly with K1 RaceGear’s mission, so we’re proud and excited to be a part of the IMS family for years to come. We can’t wait to see what the future holds.”

And IMS President, J. Douglas Boles, has this to say about our new relationship: “Ensuring the safety of our medical personnel and safety team is a priority. These dedicated individuals provide care to drivers and spectators at IMS, and K1’s innovative gear is an important component of the safety work they perform during our events.”

As many of you already know, our company was founded by racers, and we've been a leading manufacturer of professional-level racing gear – including suits, gloves, shoes and more – for nearly 20 years.

During this time, we've gained a reputation for exceptional quality, comfort, durability and safety. Winners and champions across various top-level motorsports wear our products, which has earned us our slogan, “Winners wear K1: The Brand of Champions.”

So the next time you're shopping for fire suits, think of K1 RaceGear. After all, if our products meet the high expectations and demands for the hard working safety crew at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, they'll certainly meet your requirements at the track.
