“We accomplished some great things in 2011, including our five number one qualifying efforts and record setting performance at the final event in the Quick 32 Series, and I’m really excited to get behind the wheel of not only my dragster again this year, but also that Nitro Funny Car.” said an excited Rick Kopp.
The teams major sponsor We Install It will continue to take top billing with the Top Dragster team and has stepped up to fill that role with the newly formed Nitro Funny Car program as well.
“Our sponsorship of Kopp Motorsports has been very rewarding and mutually beneficial. Rick and his team are fantastic and represent We Install It very professionally. The brand awareness of We Install It has never been higher and we look forward to a successful 2012 racing season with Rick and his We Install It Racing team.” Said Blair Payne who manages Business Development for the company.
“Driving a fuel car has been a dream of mine since I first started drag racing and I can’t thank my sponsor We Install It, or Billy Leverentz and everyone at Oddy’s Dyno Tested Engines enough for their help making this a reality.” stated Kopp.
