Amthor International, a custom tanker truck manufacturer, announced a dynamic new partnership with NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Driver Spencer Boyd.
Under the partnership, Amthor International will serve as the primary sponsor for Boyd’s No. 76 truck at the Martinsville, VA, race in November. The association debuted with Amthor’s logo showcased on Boyd’s truck during the Aug. 10 race at Richmond, VA.
“I made my NASCAR debut at Martinsville in 2016,” Boyd shared.
“It holds a special place in my career. Partnering with a company that’s a local neighbor to the track allows us to celebrate the passionate NASCAR fans in Virginia.
“With the track and Amthor having storied histories, I’m excited to honor that legacy with a strong performance at the Paperclip.”
Amthor International, a fourth-generation, family-owned business based in Gretna, VA, is also gearing up to open a new location in early 2025. Brian Amthor, Executive VP, commented, “We are so excited to announce our entry into the NASCAR community and be a partner of Spencer Boyd and Freedom Racing Enterprises.
“This partnership allows us to connect with their passionate and loyal fan base while bringing our company and its products to the forefront of the racing world.
“We look forward to creating memorable experiences and driving growth together.”
In conjunction with supporting the new facility’s employee recruitment, Amthor will host a Job Fair and “trunk or treat” event at their Gretna location on Oct. 31, 2024. The family-friendly event will feature a special “trunk” display with Boyd’s actual Martinsville race truck, courtesy of Freedom Racing Enterprises. Attendees will also have the chance to meet Spencer Boyd in person.
The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Playoff Race at Martinsville is set for Friday, Nov. 1, 2024, at 6:00 PM. This crucial race will determine the final four drivers vying for the Truck Series Championship.
