LAKE ZURICH, Ill. – The COMP Performance Group™ announces the addition of Quarter Master® Industries Inc. to their family of high performance companies. Quarter Master® has enjoyed a long history of track-proven, race-winning results through their attention to detail, extensive field-testing and awareness of racer needs. Designed using the latest Auto CAD, 3D modeling and FEA technology, their clutch and ancillary products are built by an experienced staff at their modern facility in Lake Zurich, Ill., a suburb of Chicago.

“We are extremely pleased and excited to add Quarter Master® to the COMP Performance Group™,” stated Ron Coleman, CPG President. “Most importantly, the terms of the acquisition allow us to retain all the current employees as well as the existing facility in the greater Chicago area. We believe the fit with our existing companies is an exceptional one as Quarter Master® has always shared our mission to be the technology leader in their product category. Going forward, we expect Quarter Master® will only expand that technology leadership given they now have access to the world class engineering and product development resources already in place within the COMP Performance Group™. We look forward to building upon their winning history and taking the company, employees and products to an even greater level of success.”

The Quarter Master® facilities will remain in Lake Zurich, and all of the current staff will be retained to ensure the company maintains their excellent levels of component quality, customer service and overall racing reputation. The company will continue to focus heavily on providing products and services for the hardcore circle track and drag race markets, while also developing new products that cross over into the street performance area.

Quarter Master® began operations in 1972 and has enjoyed a long history of track proven, race-winning results.
