FIM Europe has signed a three years contract with ITP for the support of the European Quadcross Championship.
ITP is one of the brands of the global operating company The Carlstar Group (formerly Carlisle Transportation Products). The European headquarter of The Carlstar Group is based in Arnhem, the Netherlands.
The Company is well-known as a premier manufacturer of a comprehensive line of performance products for original equipment and aftermarket customers with a strong family of brands including Carlisle ® belts, tires and wheels, Ultimax ® powersports belts, ITP ® tires and wheels, as well as Cragar ® , Black Rock ® and Unique ® wheels. Made in USA, ITP tires and wheels are realized pursuing Advanced Traction Technology, and are well-known already in many Countries and specialized in Quads and UTVs.
In Europe the use of quads is very popular. The races of the European Quadcross Championship in 6 different Countries are a good opportunity for both parties to reach two goals: more interest in this very spectacular championship and, for ITP, spreading the brand in the European market.
“In the Olympic Sportcentrum Papendal the promotional materials were showed. ITP developed a special logo for this EMX Quad competition, which is visible on the website”, stated Ilse Smit, Exhibition & Events Coordinator of ITP.
