”We are pleased to have STA-RITE Industries join us at Richmond,” said co-owner Eddie D’Hondt, “they understand the benefits of marketing through motorsports and we’re excited about the new association.”

STA-RITE Industries, a Delavan, WI based company, who manufactures pumps and water processing equipment for residential, industrial and agricultural markets worldwide, will adorn the “tv panel” of the TBR Dodge.
