Gibbs, a Master Technician Chassis Clinic conducted by Affinia Training Director Wally Marciniak, and an in-depth tech session held around a #20 Home Depot car conducted by Todd Foster, JGR Chassis Specialist, and Jeff Eicher, JGR Brake Specialist.

“Just as Raybestos Chassis replacement parts offer unmatched quality, we wanted to offer our Master Technician winners an experience unmatched in originality,” said Josh Russell, vice president of marketing, Affinia Global Brake & Chassis. “The chance to talk shop with owner and president of a NASCAR team, as well as the chance to receive a chassis and brake clinic conducted on a Sprint Cup race car – well, that’s just something you won’t have the opportunity to participate in very often.”

Additionally, promotion winners were also treated to a VIP behind-the-scenes campus tour conducted by JGR Engineering Director Nelson Cosgrove that included visits to the race shop, the chassis fabrication shop, the dyno room, test rigs and more. Promotion winners concluded the eventful day by competing against one another in kart racing at Victory Lane Karting in Charlotte.

After installing $500 of Raybestos Chassis Professional Grade parts, technicians were eligible submit their tally card for entry. Every qualified tally card earned a JGR Raybestos Chassis poster, a Raybestos sticker and a JGR ball cap. The first 100 submissions earned caps autographed by either Denny Hamlin or Kyle Busch.
