IRVINE, Calif. (February 24, 2015)— TORC: The Off-Road Championship Presented by AMSOIL is known for incredible racing that reaches the next generation motorsports fan. Fast speeds, big jumps and side by side racing thrills fans all over the country and showcases the performance of key products, especially tires.
Atturo Tires, a brand dedicated to tires for the sport utility, crossover, and light truck market has joined forces with TORC as an Official Series Partner for the purpose of telling their product story to the National TORC Audience. Tires are one of the most important components of a winning truck in TORC. Only the highest-quality products like Atturo’s Trailblade ™ series can withstand the abuse that these race-trucks make as they race their way around tracks that have serious terrain challenges.
“Lap after lap, a TORC track changes and becomes increasingly punishing to tires,” says Series President BJ Birtwell. “Add high speeds and the fact that these trucks fly 200 feet through the air and land on rough terrain means that tires are put to arguably the most intense test in all of racing.”
Atturo, based in Chicago, IL, has created a name for itself in the tire industry by developing race quality tires in a consumer price range to meet the needs of today's light truck owner. Whether it’s replacing original equipment tires, or upgrading to a larger size, Atturo offers a tire to enhance the performance and appearance of its customers’ truck, living up to its slogan, “Performance Within Reach.”
“As a leader in providing consumers with pro-quality tires in the light truck and SUV/crossover markets, Atturo is proud to partner with TORC in this series,” said Atturo’s Michael Mathis. “ We’re here to let consumers know the Atturo tires that perform in the harsh environment of the TORC series are the same tires they can get every day at dealers around the globe.”
