2 ARCA 101 Founded in 1953 as a Midwest-based stock car racing series, ARCA has grown to represent the most diverse nationally touring stock car series anywhere. ARCA is the second-longest running championship racing series in the country, and remains consistently dedicated to fans, competitors, and sponsors at the highest levels of the sport. ARCA founder, John Marcum s association with NASCAR founder, Bill France Sr. predates the sanctioning body itself, and the two sanctioning bodies remain joined on companion weekends at the same high-profile racing venues that host NASCAR s most elite series. Our history is a celebration of integrity, stability, tradition, respect, and success. In 2012, the Automobile Racing Club of America celebrated its 60th Anniversary Season, and moved into its seventh decade of competition in A substantial, multi-faceted marketing campaign has highlighted ARCA s commitment to its legacy and heritage, and is now designed to showcase the best of ARCA as its tradition grows toward the next milestone. At the top-tier, the ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards is the flagship division of the sanctioning body. Strategically positioned as a driver development series as well as a destination for professional stock car racers, this division has competed at more than two-hundred race tracks in twenty-six states nationwide and in Canada. The tour boasts an annual schedule of approximately 20 race events, in up to 16 major U.S. markets and is often aligned with NASCAR Sprint Cup, Nationwide, and Camping World Truck series events. As many as 160 teams compete in this division each year and combined, carry and represent more than 400 sponsors.

3 The new and improved ARCAracing.com website marks the seventh different website design for the ARCA sanction since ARCAracing.com first launched in ARCAracing.com has always been the web source for accurate, timely and responsible information, said ARCA President Ron Drager. The evolution of technology and our relationship with our digital services provider, ACME Branding Company, has allowed ARCA to take a significant stride forward with regard to digital technology within our sport. We are constantly striving to achieve the greatest possible experience for our fans, teams, drivers and sponsors. The new site, designed to be as user-friendly on mobile devices and tablets as it will continue to be on desktop and laptop computers, incorporates a wide variety of enhanced, interactive elements. Socially active site users have also embraced our new integration with Facebook and Twitter. The enhancements and increased interactive elements that are part of the new infrastructure make it easier and user-friendly for ARCA members to engage in communication where the conversation takes place for all things ARCA, added Drager. Users have access to exclusive, never before available ARCA content from the latest news stories, photos and video, and be able to comment on a variety of categories. Additions to the interactive elements also include the ability for users to help drive homepage content from trending drivers to the most popular photos and video. Users will also have access to a new and improved version of live timing and scoring at all ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards events. The site was designed and built by ACME Branding Company, ARCA s digital services provider since ACME first introduced ARCA s digital audience to live timing and scoring.
