"We're so pleased that Irwindale has signed on with us to supply race tires for the next three seasons,” said Hoosier Tire West's president Rick Gerhardt. “Everyone knows what Irwindale means to short track racing in the Southland ... we're very proud to have been chosen to support this premier track with our American-made tire products."

In related news, Bruce Flanders will return as the announcing voice of Irwindale Speedway on Saturday night, April 6, 2013.
"We couldn't be more pleased that Bruce is back for our re-opening season," said GM/COO Bob Klein. "Bruce is simply the best there is in this business. He was our voice when we opened in 1999 and it's just great to be able to say that he'll be back with us in April at Irwindale, where he has so many friends and fans."
Pasadena, California-born, Flanders' announcing credits run from the classic Hangtown motorcycle races to the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach, and from Mickey Thompson's stadium off-road races to being "type cast" in a number of blockbuster movies as, of all things, a racing announcer.
Flanders will be assisted at Irwindale by his daughter Megan, who will be up in the booth with him acting as his engineer, key grip, and more.
