Defending Funny Car event champion Paul Lee heads into this weekend\u2019s FMP NHRA Arizona Nationals at Firebird Motorsports Park with Mainline Sales, Inc. returning as the primary partner on the Paul Lee Racing Funny Car.<\/p>\n
Lee captured his first career Funny Car Wally at this event one year ago, marking a milestone victory for both the driver and the growing Paul Lee Racing program. Now returning to Phoenix as the defending champions, the team looks to build on that momentum with a refreshed Mainline Sales paint scheme that highlights the company\u2019s continued investment in the partnership.<\/p>\n
\u201cComing back to Phoenix as the defending event champion is really special for our entire team,\u201d said Lee. \u201cTo have Mainline Sales and so many of their key manufacturing partners represented on our Funny Car makes it even more meaningful. Our Paul Lee Racing program is built on creating real business-to-business opportunities, and we\u2019re proud to help generate new connections while continuing to strengthen the relationships with the partners who have supported us along the way.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mainline Sales has been a part of Paul Lee Racing since the team\u2019s inception in 2019, making this weekend\u2019s primary sponsorship a continuation of a long-standing relationship rooted in performance and business-to-business growth. The 2026 Arizona Nationals livery will prominently feature the new Mainline Racing logo on the hood, the Mainline Sales corporate branding on the sides, and a collection of key manufacturer partners represented across the rear quarter panels.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis race in Phoenix is especially meaningful for us as we celebrate the opening of Mainline\u2019s new 25,000-square-foot warehouse,\u201d said Alicia Sylvester, Marketing LEAD & Fuel Assistant. \u201cWe\u2019re proud to share this milestone alongside Paul Lee and our valued manufacturer partners who have supported our primary sponsorship. Our program continues to grow, and our customers become more energized with every race weekend. It\u2019s a great example of the strong B2B relationships created through Paul Lee and Steven Cole\u2019s vision.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re incredibly excited to move into our new warehouse facility and begin this next chapter of growth for our team,\u201d added Joe Libman, Arizona & Southern Nevada LEAD. \u201cThis new space will allow us to operate more efficiently, expand our capabilities, and service the territory even better. As an associate sponsor of Paul Lee Racing over the past several seasons, Mainline Sales continues to see the value of the strong business-to-business relationships built through Paul Lee\u2019s racing program and marketing platform.\u201d<\/p>\n
The partnership between Mainline Sales and Paul Lee Racing continues to exemplify how motorsports can drive meaningful connections between manufacturers, distributors, and end users. With a shared focus on growth, service, and performance, both organizations have leveraged the NHRA platform to strengthen relationships across multiple markets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Defending Funny Car event champion Paul Lee heads into this weekend\u2019s FMP NHRA Arizona Nationals at Firebird Motorsports…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":665276,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[5131],"tags":[5229,5643,5218,1587,52060,52057,52058,43718,52069,52063,52070,52071,52065,52061,52059,52056,1589,52067,52068,6180,52062,25545,52066,67,586,132,5230,68,2969,52064],"class_list":["post-665275","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-phoenix","tag-america","tag-arizona","tag-auto-racing","tag-az","tag-camping-world-drag-racing-series","tag-drag-race","tag-drag-racing","tag-drivers","tag-funny-car","tag-hot-rod","tag-jet-car","tag-live-timing","tag-lucas-oil","tag-mello-yello-series","tag-mission-foods-drag-racing-series","tag-nhra","tag-phoenix","tag-pro-mod","tag-pro-stock","tag-racing","tag-speedforall","tag-sportsman","tag-top-fuel","tag-united-states","tag-united-states-of-america","tag-unitedstates","tag-unitedstatesofamerica","tag-us","tag-usa","tag-wally-parks"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116252207029561665","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/665275","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=665275"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/665275\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/665276"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=665275"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=665275"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=665275"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
