MOORESVILLE, NC, September 16, 2014 – U.S. Chrome Corporation, the world-wide leader in innovative surface engineering, today announced its sponsorship of Timmy Hill and the No. 32 in NASCAR’s Sprint Cup event at New Hampshire Motor Speedway on September 21, 2014.

“At U.S. Chrome, we have two passions,” said Bob Reath, owner and CEO of U.S. Chrome Corporation. “Developing superior-performing, environmentally-friendly coatings – and racing. We are excited to have Timmy back in the 32 car with U.S. Chrome. He is fine young man and deserves an opportunity to compete at the Cup level. We are looking forward to having him race in our backyard at New Hampshire.”

Reath and Stoddard have a longstanding relationship that began nearly 25 years ago. In 1988, U.S. Chrome partnered with Dana Patten to run five Sprint Cup races. Based out of a two-stall garage in Enfield, N.H., the team made its racing debut at Michigan International Speedway with Frank Stoddard as the lead wrench and chassis specialist.

“Archie and I are very excited to have U.S. Chrome back with us at New Hampshire this weekend,” said Stoddard. “Bob is a true friend first, but a passionate person when it comes to racing and he is so proud to have his company on the 32 with Timmy driving. He met Timmy a few years ago and really loved his passion for racing, his character, and his ability to race within his limits with the resources he has had to work with. It means a lot to me to have him come to New Hampshire, a special place to me on so many levels. I met my wife there, I won some races there, and my hometown is not too far away from the track.”

New Hampshire will mark the first race of the season with Hill at the wheel and U.S. Chrome as a sponsor. Stoddard has four wins at New Hampshire Motor Speedway with driver Jeff Burton, including one race where the duo led every lap before going on to victory lane.
