ProDoor Manufacturing to Sponsor Race at Nashville Fairgrounds
ProDoor Manufacturing to Sponsor Race at Nashville Fairgrounds
The 500 Sprint Car tour is excited to announce ProDoor Manufacturing as the presenting
sponsor for the Nashville leg of the tour being held at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway. In the
past years the series has only traveled within Indiana, Ohio, and Michigan; this will be the first
time the series has gone outside that area to Nashville. 2004 was the last time a non-wing
pavement sprint car competed on the iconic half mile oval.
“As an Indiana based company and Indiana being known as ‘The Racing Capital of The World’,
ProDoor Manufacturing holds racing dear to our hearts. We are thrilled to be the presenting
sponsor for the Nashville leg of the 500 Sprint Car Tour and looking forward to all the festivities.”
– JD Stearns, President ProDoor Manufacturing.
In 1980 ProDoor Systems was founded as a garage door installer in the Indianapolis
area. Over the next 24 years they proceeded to open 5 distribution centers as a competitive
garage door dealer. Fast forward to 2017 when ProDoor Manufacturing was created; PDM
manufactures garage doors and sells to the 5 distribution centers as well as many other
wholesale customers. ProDoor provides industry leading garage doors to their customers using
innovative design, low cost, and exceptional day-of accessibility.
“We are excited that Pro Door Manufacturing is teaming up with us to bring Sprint Cars to
Nashville,” said Jared Owen - 500 Sprint Car Tour, Series Director. “This has been a race that
teams have circled on their calendars since the 2023 schedule announcement. The legendary
5/8ths mile is sure to produce great high-speed racing.”
ProDoor Manufacturing is a perfect fit for the Anderson, IN based series as it heads
south for the first time. Nashville will be the farthest distance traveled in the 2023 series. PDM
sponsoring the Nashville leg of the series has enabled us to announce a purse increase to ‘beef
up’ the backend as a thank you to the teams who are making the trip.
