August 11, 2009 7:48 AM — The National Auto Sport Association announces it is renewing its longtime partnership with Toyo Tires; extending its contract for an additional three years beginning January 1, 2010. As a part of this extension, all NASA spec tire classes will be going back to the Toyo Proxes RA1 as the required tire. This will become effective January 1, 2010 with a three-weekend grace period to allow the use of the previously allowed R888 tires.  “This move was made in response to customer input, and we hope the racers will be pleased by this announcement. The RA1 has become a favorite amongst many NASA racers and has proven itself for speed, consistency, and longevity,“ said NASA’s National Chairman Ryan Flaherty.

August 4, 2009 3:09 PM — The National Auto Sport Association (NASA) announced today that it would extend the reduced price of $599 for registration at the NASA Championships until August 31st instead of raising the price as planned.  After September 1st, the late entry fee of $999 will still apply.

“We felt this price break would allow more people an opportunity to register at a later date” said Ryan Flaherty, NASA National Chairman.   “We hope this extension of the reduced price helps out folks that decided to wait until the end of August to register for the event and perhaps even persuades some racers who are still on the fence to come out and join the fun.”

With live webcast coverage from the event, select classes receiving television coverage, and a wide array of contingencies available, the fourth annual NASA Championships presented by Toyo Tires looks to be the best yet, so don’t delay in getting yourself registered for this year’s event at Miller Motorsports Park.
