Permatex, Inc., has announced that it will continue its corporate sponsorship of the Follow A Dream Race Team for the 2007 NHRA season. Permatex has partnered with Jay Blake and his team since 2004.
Blake, founder, owner, and crew chief, of Follow A Dream Racing, stated, “This relationship continues to be a great opportunity for both Permatex and Follow A Dream. We are extremely proud to be working with a company that is so highly respected in the industry, and we continue to rely on their outstanding products to keep our car competitive.”
Blake lost his eyesight in a tire explosion over nine years ago, but he did not lose his positive attitude on life, nor his desire to pursue his dreams. He was able to realize his dream and founded the Follow A Dream Racing team, which has worked its way up the rankings and with David Ray driving, has become one of the premier Top Alcohol Funny Car teams in the world. Blake has also worked to encourage others to overcome adversity. For the past seven years, he has toured the country as a motivational speaker at hospitals, rehabs centers, corporations, and Vo-tech schools, encouraging people to believe that they can rise above adversity and achieve their life’s goals.
“Jay’s mission to inspire people to follow their dreams through determination, positive thinking, and teamwork reflects the attitude we encourage at Permatex. Sponsoring Jay and Follow A Dream Racing not only gives us a chance to accomplish our marketing objectives but also gives us great pride in knowing that we are contributing to the community at large,” notes Tony Battaglia, Director of Marketing at Permatex.
During 2007, the team currently plans to participate in 10 races, a combination of five divisional and five national events, in Gainesville, , Englishtown, Norwalk, Reading, and Indianapolis. Blake noted that it is likely that more races will be added to the schedule.
