The SEMA Cares Industry Cup Challenge is really heating up, and members are beginning to summon their peers to a contest of speed during the SEMA Pinewood Drag Race. Daryl Sampson from Turn 14 has called out Motovicity for a head-to-head battle for the Industry Cup Challenge Champion Title. Taking a wider approach, Motor State Distributing jumped into the race by challenging all WDs to get involved.
The SEMA Cares Industry Cup Challenge features five different categories: WDs, manufacturers, media, sales rep agencies, service providers. These companies compete for best in category and overall fastest car during the Pinewood Drag Race held in conjunction with the SEMA Installation & Gala.
