After two rounds, Lewis is currently ranked second in the Harley-Davidson Insurance AMA Pro Flat Track Grand National Championship (GNC) points. He earned two career-best second place finishes during Daytona Bike Week back in March.
Matrix Concepts became a supporting sponsor for Lewis at the beginning of this season. The company provides the most innovative stands, mats, ramps, tie downs and cans in the motorcycle industry. Champions, teams and top riders from many motorcycle disciplines use their products.
“I was looking at new ways to provide sponsors more exposure and also gain additional support for my season,” said Lewis who will compete on a #10 Honda CRF450R this Saturday. “I approached Matrix Concepts first and the owner immediately signed on for three races. Thanks to Matrix Concepts I can focus completely on the race instead of how to pay expenses. I’m in the hunt now for the GNC title and they will help me remain at this level.”
Lewis will have new autograph posters for the next three rounds with the Matrix Concepts brand shown prominently. There will also be a new Matrix Concepts banner at his pit and a logo on his van.
Companies interested in this new sponsorship program, may contact Lewis directly at johnnylewis10@live.com. Individual and multiple race sponsorships are available.
Race fans head to the DuQuoin Short Track at the Southern Illinois Center in DuQuoin, Illinois this Saturday, April 16.
