“We’re incredibly proud to support Kelly in her pursuit of excellence both in her career and on the racetrack,” said Steven Stone, ArchKey Solutions, CEO. “Her drive, discipline, and commitment to performance embody the values we stand for as an organization. This partnership is a powerful way to showcase the strength of our people and the pride we have in the trades.”
Clontz will be highlighting ArchKey Solutions throughout the weekend, including fan engagement events in the NHRA Manufacturer’s Midway, autograph opportunities at her pit area, and on-track performance as she races against the best drag racers in the country. Clontz will be continuing to build on eight years of experience racing in the Pro Stock Motorcycle class, recognized as one of the most competitive categories in the NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series. Races are decided by thousandths of a second, and a rider’s reaction time, strength, and concentration are keys to victory.
“There is a considerable amount of overlap when you look at what we are doing on my motorcycle in the pits and on the track with what ArchKey has done over the past 100 years to build their company and people,” said Clontz. “We both need complete attention to every detail, and we also must constantly be looking to improve. We are always looking for ways to make our motorcycle quicker and faster from track to track across the country. ArchKey has built one of the nation’s leading electrical and technology companies in the country by investing in its people and delivering scalable solutions across industries from coast to coast.”
Clontz will start her pursuit for victory in St. Louis with two qualifying sessions on Friday, September 26, at 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. The team will have two more opportunities to grab one of the 16 qualified spots in the field on Saturday, September 27, at 1:15 p.m. and 4 p.m., with the final elimination commencing on Sunday, September 28, at 11 a.m. Fans can get more information on the race at www.nhra.com, and they can tune in to the national broadcast throughout the weekend on FS1.
