INDIANAPOLIS — Multi-time Pro Stock winner Camrie Caruso will chase her first NHRA Mission Food Drag Racing Series Pro Stock world championship with Tequila Comisario primary branding adorning her Chevrolet Camaro race car for 20 of the 21 NHRA national events, along with the PRO Superstar Shootout.
The marketing relationship between Caruso and Tequila Comisario has steadily grown over the past three seasons with next year marking a major expansion both on and off the track.
“We have shown over the past two seasons that marketing with our team and the NHRA has worked for Tequila Comisario,” said Caruso, who won her first Pro Stock national event last year at the Arizona Nationals. “The Tequila Comisario team has been great to work with and we are thrilled to help them grow their brand. We will have even more cool events on and off track. Tequila Comisario is the kind of marketing partner anyone would dream of having. They have an amazing product and they aggressively market it.”
Last year, Caruso began racing the Tequila Comisario Tequila Camaro in Chicago and drove it to the winner’s circle at the first Pro Stock Allstar Callout event for her second win of the year at that event. She completed the season with Tequila Comisario coming in the Countdown for the championship over the final six national events.
“We have been steadily expanding this program across the country and using Camrie along with the strong television ratings to grow Tequila Comisario,” said Fran Vivenzio, Vice President of Sales for Stellar Spirits and Wine. “In Dallas last year we brought some of our executives to the Stampede of Speed at Texas Motorplex and they were blown away by the experience and the opportunities we have with Camrie and her team.
“This is one of the biggest programs we’re running and we want to expand on the opportunity to host customers at the races in different markets.”
The primary sponsorship for the Texas Fall Nationals will be announced at a later time.
