VIR + Barber Equals Pirelli Give-Away
A huge CONGRATULATIONS goes out to Juan Gonzalez and Mission Foods on Pato O’Ward and Arrow McLaren’s win at Iowa Speedway this past Saturday night. Running consistently at the front part of the field, Pato and his team put together an excellent last pit stop, took over the lead and never looked back. Your International GT family is very proud!
Many of you wanted International GT to add Barber to the schedule and we are excited for the upcoming event at the unmatched facility in October.
Are you are planning to race the International GT events at Virginia International Raceway (September 17-21) and the debut of the series at Barber Motorsports Park (October 17-19)?
No, you were only planning on one?
Let us give you some incentive to consider entering both.
Not only are both fabulous racing circuits, we have some added encouragement! We have six (6) sets of Pirelli race tires (that’s 24 tires) to give-away and we will be adding all the drivers who enter both VIR and Barber into a random drawing for the 6 sets of tires. You don’t need to do anything but enter and you will be automatically added to the drawing.

Email Julie@ParellaMotorsports.com or call (770)380-7770 with any questions.
Deadline to enter VIR and Barber to be included in the Pirelli give-away is FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 5th
Mission Foods Double Wins!!
Mission Foods IndyCar driver PATO O’WARD did it again! Back-to-back wins at Iowa and this past Sunday in Toronto. It’s a great time to be coming on strong as he’s second in the points championship with only four races remaining in the Indycar season.
Meanwhile, also this past weekend Mission Foods boss, JUAN GONZALEZ took the win at the Road America Vintage Weekend. CONGRATS!!
