The IndyCar is here in KC!!!

Here is the very first photo of the IndyCar that will be in the BP Motorsports Group booth at the 2011 Greater Kansas City International Auto Show March 2nd to March 6th.  Brit was down at Bartle Hall this morning when they rolled Will Power's #12 Meijer Racing Honda off the trailer! 
 
Unfortunately we don't have a photo of Brit because he wouldn't stand still long enough for anyone to get a photo of him.  From what I understand he looked like a kid in a candy store.  Despite the fact that Brit showed up with his driver suit and his helmet they wouldn't let him take the car for a test drive....  However, you might want to keep an eye on our website and this blog and get your driver suits and helmets ready for this season because as we said, this is just the tip of the iceberg for 2011.  

BP Motorsports Group and Car Car Motorsports will be at the 2011 Auto Show from March 2nd to March 6th so come down and see what we've got in store for this season and get a chance to see Will Power's #12 Meijer IndyCar in our booth.

IndyCar Partners with BP Motorsports Group!

Greetings everyone.  What an exciting time it is for all of at BP Motorsports Group!  First and foremost we want to thank all of you who have come to race with us over the past few years, because without your support none of this would be possible!  Yes, we've worked hard at trying to  grow the sport here in the Heartland, but without your support we wouldn't have been able to progress to this point.  THANK YOU! 

All of us at BP Motorsports Group are looking forward to the start of the 2011 season, and as many of you heard at the banquet we'll be working with The IZOD IndyCar Series this year to help promote "The Mazda Road to Indy".




 Our first big event, to kick off that partnership, will be at the 2011 Greater Kansas City International Auto Show from March 2nd to March 6th at Bartle Hall.  Not only will BP Motorsports Group again have a display inside the Auto Show with CarCar Motorspots but IndyCar will be joining us this year by sending one of their cars to be part of our display.   This will kick off our promotion of "The Mazda Road to Indy" and there are some tremendously exciting other things we have in store for you this season as well.  As of right now our lips are sealed, but we'll be able to make the official announcement about something else here in the very near future so stay tuned because this year is going to be BIG!!!!

I just got the official update from the folks at IndyCar and BP Motorsports Group will have the new Penske Racing #12 Meijer IndyCar of Will Power at the Auto Show!  BP Motorsports Group will be in section 8C on the South side of Bartle Hall at the Auto Show and you can find us on the "Floorplan" at  www.kcautoshow.com

Hopefully this snow and ice will melt off quickly and everyone can get the karts out soon.  It's going to be one heck of a great season and the tie in with IndyCar at the Auto Show is just tip of the iceberg for 2011. Come see us at the Auto Show with IndyCar!  Get ready because we're just over a month away from the first race of the 2011 season....

See you all soon,
