To make such an event happen it takes generous marketing partners. Returning partners include Recovery Sports Grill, Halmar International, and VP Racing Fuels. Along with the event each year is the Big Crate Show for Sportsman as well, which is presented by Fox Racing Shocks. This isn’t all the ‘Jersey Jet’ has planned for the fans though.
