Profile/Program: The history of Hoosier Tire began back in the early 50’s when Bob and Joyce Newton decided to begin producing their own race tires by re-treading street tires with softer compounds. As their business began to grow they were able to build the world’s first and only factory solely devoted to the production of racing tires. In 1985, as business continued to grow they eliminated the need to rely on outside rubber suppliers by developing the company’s own in-house rubber production capabilities. The equipment purchased included the latest computer controlled “Banbury” to mix the complicated racing compounds as well as the components for an advanced testing and technology center. Today, Hoosier is the largest race tire manufacturer in the world, and all Hoosier race tires are still proudly “Made in the USA.” Hoosier has grown to be one of the largest employers in Plymouth, Indiana, producing over 1000 different types of tires, including the only racing tire allowed in IMCA competition, and has become the model of sales and distribution that all others seek to emulate.
Hoosier manufactures the official tire for IMCA competition in the Modified, Stock Car, SportMod, Late Model, Crate Model and Sprint Car divisions.
• Point fund and track bonus money provided in all IMCA divisions except Hobby Stocks and Sport Compacts.
