We are still pursuing promoting a touring series for 2013 when possible & attending the local car shows.
For the touring series we are in need of a group of people (drivers, sponsors, promoters, etc.) willing to be there on the ground floor and see how far we can take this. If you would like to be part of that ride please contact Roger at roger@electrictaz.com or call 507-437-3151.
