Hoosier Racing Tire was recently named the "Coolest Thing Made in Indiana" by the Indiana Chamber of Commerce.

"We are very honored and humbled to receive the award for the Coolest Thing Made in Indiana contest," said Joerg Burfien, president and CEO of Hoosier Racing Tire. "Thank you to all that have supported us and thank you to our employees. Our dedicated employees go above and beyond to ensure our customers get the tires they need and want. I am proud of our workforce and the efforts they put forth on a daily basis."

Celebrating the state's manufacturing history, the Indiana Chamber of Commerce set out to find and recognize the "Coolest Thing Made in Indiana." Hoosier Racing Tire was selected from a pool of 47 businesses by public voters, the Chamber of Commerce said.

"It really is a special honor to receive this award," said Mark Spence, VP of technology and manufacturing. "It was great to see the support we have received from the community. We do make a cool product. There is a lot more that goes into a racing tire than most people realize. It is somewhat of an art and a skill that we teach our employees. Now everyone knows how cool our tires are."
