Need for Speed.

PR, Sponsorship & Driver Marketing

I provided public relations, sponsorship, and marketing support for Gottspeed Racing across its NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle and karting programs.

For the NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle team, I wrote and distributed press releases, developed targeted media lists, coordinated media coverage, and secured interviews with local morning shows, radio programs, and sports publications.

I also designed and produced a professional sponsorship package used to pitch prospective partners. The package helped the team secure thousands of dollars in sponsorship funding.

To support driver promotion and fan engagement, I designed and printed hero cards for the team’s NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle rider and kart racer Harry Gottsacker, who went on to become a professional sports car driver.
