Speedmaster has signed a multiyear partnership agreement with John Force Racing to serve as the co-primary sponsor of the Burnyzz Speed Shop Top Fuel dragster driven by Josh Hart in the NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series, the company announced.

Hart and the Burnyzz Speed Shop/Speedmaster Top Fuel dragster team will make their debut at the NHRA's 75th Anniversary season-opening Amalie Motor Oil NHRA Gatornationals in Gainesville, Florida, March 5-8.

The partnership also includes associate sponsorship of all three of the 24-time championship organization's Funny Car teams with drivers Jack Beckman, Alexis DeJoria, and Jordan Vandergriff.

"Speedmaster has always admired what John Force Racing represents, an unmatched legacy built on performance, resilience, and winning at the highest level," said Speedmaster CEO Jason Kencevski. "Becoming part of that legacy through a multiyear partnership is a proud moment for us. Having Josh Hart behind the wheel representing Speedmaster and Burnyzz is incredibly exciting. Josh is a driven, successful CEO, and there's a strong alignment between his mindset and our vision. This partnership brings together legacy and the next generation, and we believe it helps set a powerful example for young entrepreneurs and leaders across the automotive industry."

"I've chased sponsors for decades, and had people chase sponsors for me almost as long, but this is the first time I've had a driver put a sponsorship program together," said 16-time NHRA Funny Car world champion and team owner John Force of Hart's efforts. "Josh had the relationship with Jason and Speedmaster, and he made the deal, so he deserves the credit. I'm just thrilled to be a part of it and have this partnership across all our race cars."
