CORONA, Calif. -- Officials from the United States Modified Touring Series (USMTS) announced today that Eibach Springs has returned to the USMTS family of contingency sponsors for the 2011 racing season.

In addition to awarding product certificates to the winner of the Eibach Springs Heat Race at each USMTS Casey’s General Stores National Tour event, Eibach Springs will award four springs to each of the top five eligible drivers in the final national points standings at the completion of the season.

Furthermore, Eibach Springs will contribute to the record-setting regional and national points funds announced by the USMTS for 2011.

For more than 50 years, Eibach has dedicated itself to one simple quest: building the finest suspension components in the world. The inspiration for this effort can be summed up in four words: The Will To Win. And the results are showcased every day in the demanding world of racing, from the legendary Formula 1 circuits and rugged WRC stages around the world, to the high-banked ovals of America.

As the stakes in racing grow ever higher, competition gets even tougher. Precision, reliability and repeatability assume greater importance, as preparation for winning race efforts becomes more crucial than ever. And Eibach suspension components, which ultimately determine handling, balance and overall performance, must be nothing less than perfect.

The USMTS Casey’s General Stores National Tour 2011 campaign will kick off Feb. 17-19 at the Royal Purple Raceway (formerly Houston Raceway Park) in Baytown, Texas, then moves to the Junction Motor Speedway in McCool Junction, Neb., for the 8th Annual Nebraska Spring Thaw on Friday and Saturday, March 4-5.
