“We are very pleased to be working with Mike and Mike and that entire Genesis Shocks group. They are racetrack-proven with countless wins over the last several years. Genesis has managed to stay on the cusp of technology and innovation through their immense industry experience and close communication with their racers. There are a lot of racers that are winning and dominating with Genesis – taking that experience to the bank so to speak. It is great to have them on board with the NDRL and we look forward to a great relationship in the future.” stated NDRL Marketing Director Jason Babyak.
