Rip Michels Racing is proud to announce a three race sponsorship deal with Jim Webster and his company, IDevAffiliate. This sponsorship will allow Rip and the team to finish out the 2009 Super Late Model Season at Toyota Speedway at Irwindale.

IDevAffiliate has been in business since 1999, and is celebrating their tenth year anniversary. Based out of Valencia, Ca. iDevAffiliate has been a world wide leader in tracking products that are on the market for their clients on the internet. Multiple companies are a part of IDevAffiliate network, which is an extension of the sales force for these companies. For more information of IDevAffiliate, please visit www.idevdirect.com .

“I really want to thank Jim Webster for giving us the opportunity to finish out the rest of the 2009 season,” said Rip Michels.  “Our team’s last race was scheduled to be on August 1, 2009, but thanks to my good friend Jimmy Babcock from Hot Rod Hobbies, he brokered the deal with Jim Webster and the great folks at IDevAffiliate.  I know Jim and his staff are really excited, in fact they already are creating a web site called IDevracing.com. In traditional RMR fashion, Jim was by the shop Monday night putting the UPGrade decals on the car for its first race.  We got a win for Hot Rod Hobbies, and another for Stock Building Supply, now if I can get a win for iDev to complete the triple, it would be very cool!”

“This year has been a struggle for us,” commented Rip. “I have to thank a lot of good friends who gave $100 bucks here and $100 bucks there so we could race. It is not the best way to compete, and I think our results have proven that. I guess I have been spoiled by my sponsors in the past, if we needed a part we got it. Now, we have to conserve and run mechanical parts a little longer than we would like to. Having Jim Webster and his company IDevAffiliate on board, we can at least give 100% both physically and mechanically, rather than feeling like we were coming into a fight with one hand tied behind our backs.”

“The championship may be a little out of our reach, but we’re not giving up. We’re going to take this opportunity to experiment more than we normally do, and get ready for the Showdown,” said Rip.

Rip currently sits 2nd in points with two wins in the season. He added to his all time win total by winning on August 1, 2009. Bringing his career win totals at Toyota Speedway to 59 victories.  Rip and the team are looking to capture their 60th win this coming weekend at Toyota Speedway.
