TRG Equips Their 2007 Race Fleet with Fikse Wheels: Team, Wheel Maker Continue Championship-Winning Partnership
(December 19, 2006) – TRG, which swept the Grand Am Rolex Series GT team and driver championships in 2006, has selected Fikse Wheels to equip its entire fleet of Grand Am Rolex Series race cars for 2007. "This will be our fourth season in professional racing with Fikse wheels," said TRG team owner Kevin Buckler, "We have always been impressed by the quality of the product but equally impressed by the quality of the organization and the service Fikse offers. This industry is all about relationships. Whenever I need them, Fikse is always there for us." Our job at Fikse Wheels is to give race teams a proven competitive advantage. We couldn't ask for a better vote of confidence than to have a championship winner like TRG select Fikse wheels once again. Kevin Buckler and his team are spectacularly well organized and lead the pack in terms of technical expertise. And it shows at the finish line. TRG consistently wins races and championships. It is truly an honor for us to work with them. For 2007, Fikse will supply race wheels in the TRG signature Reactor Blue for both the Rolex Sports Car and Koni Challenge series. At the season opening Rolex 24 at Daytona, Fikse Wheels will equip TRG's five-car Porsche 997 effort. In the Koni Challenge series, Fikse will equip four Porsche 997 Carreras. Fikse worked closely with TRG to achieve critical technical objectives and will manufacture and deliver over one hundred new wheels before the 24-hour race. Fikse's depth of experience in Rolex Sports Car racing is unmatched by any wheel manufacturer. Whether measured by the extent of team-specific development projects, the pace of evolution in wheel technology for the series, or simply in the number of race wins and championships earned in the modern Rolex series, Fikse wheels continue to help more teams win more championships in Rolex racing than any other wheel. Fikse has supplied wheels to Grand American teams since 2002. Design, engineering, and manufacturing are based in Kent, Washington, which enables the company to offer higher levels of service and support to all race team customers. The 2007 Rolex 24 at Daytona will run January 27-28. Since 1992, Fikse has manufactured wheels for motorsport, aftermarket, and original equipment customers. |
