Longtime Kalitta Motorsports associate sponsor Technicoat Companies, an
industry-leading flooring and waterproofing company based in Las Vegas, will
assume the role as primary sponsor on the 8,000-horsepower, Dave Grubnic-driven,
Connie Kalitta-tuned Top Fuel dragster at this weekend’s, March 13-16, annual
running of the famed ACDelco NHRA Gatornationals at Gainesville Raceway in
Gainesville, Fla.
Technicoat Companies, led by Team Kalitta fixtures “the Cowboys”, Bob
Coffman, President, and Glen Williams, C.O.O, and their trademark cowboy hats
are not only quarter-mile partners with Kalitta Motorsports, but they are also
business associates with team owner and drag racing legend Connie Kalitta and
his air cargo company, Kalitta Air. Technicoat Companies recently completed an
85,000-sqare-foot flooring project for a new aircraft hangar at Kalitta Air’s
maintenance facility in Oscoda, Mich.
“It’s great to have ‘the Cowboys’ be involved with us at this level for the
Gators,” Grubnic, a 45-year old resident of Ennis, Mont., said. “They are always
a blast to have around, and they’ve done so much for our entire Kalitta
Motorsports team over the years. I can’t think of anything better than to repay
their devotion to us than to put the Technicoat Companies Top Fuel dragster in
the winner’s circle in Gainesville.”
