Sir Speedy-Monrovia Partners with Lotus HVM Racing

IndyCar teams are built on speed, technology and a solid reliance on business relationships. These principles go hand-in-hand with businesses across the globe, making the IZOD IndyCar Series a perfect partner and the reason why many large companies invest their marketing and sponsorship budgets in the series.

Small businesses also see the value of IndyCar and today Sir Speedy-Monrovia is proud to announce that it will be partnering with Lotus HVM Racing and Simona De Silvestro for the remainder of the 2012 IZOD IndyCar season. De Silvestro drives the Lotus powered No. 78 Nuclear Clean Air Energy car, which will be racing next Sunday, April 15, on the streets of Long Beach.

The Sir Speedy partnership pairs the locally owned franchise, which is nestled against the San Gabriel Mountains in the city of Monrovia, California, with Lotus HVM Racing and its third-year driver Simona De Silvestro. Sir Speedy-Monrovia becomes the team's Official Provider of Printing and Marketing Services. All of the team's printing, signage and marketing needs will be provided as part of this year's program.

"We are delighted to be able to partner with Lotus HVM Racing and Simona. Simona is a great ambassador for our company as we share the same qualities: speed, expertise in technology, teamwork and a persistent commitment to winning," states David Martinez, Sir Speedy Sales Manager.

Lotus HVM Racing owner Keith Wiggins welcomes the new partnership. "We are very happy to welcome Sir Speedy to our group of partners," he said. " Their support, with product and services of quality, reflects our own image and gives us another tool that we can utilize to enhance our brand and perception."

On Wednesday, April 11th, Simona will be appearing at the Sir Speedy store located at 411 West Maple Ave in Monrovia, CA from 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. as part of the store's Open House. The public is welcome to attend the event and meet Simona as she signs autographs and meets her fans in preparation for the upcoming 2012 Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach.
