Shinko Tires announce $10,000 Tire Contingency Program with Xtreem Flattrack

Xtreem Flattrack (XFT) extends their partnership with Shinko Tires which includes a $10,000 Tire Contingency program for the 2021 race series.

“I was excited to initially work with Adam and his team at Shinko during the 2020 Sturgis Motorcycle Rally ” says XFT President Jake Latimer. “ We immediately bonded well together and their vision supports our vision. Everyone involved at Shinko tires is 100% behind growing and supporting the Xtreem Flattrack Series and grass roots Flattrack Motorcycle Racing. With the uncertainty of the future due to the pandemic, we are proud that Shinko believes in our series enough to develop this contingency program, I think it says a lot about where their heart and support is-and that’s with the racers. ”

As part of the Partnership, Shinko tires will be available at all Xtreem Flattrack Series Races and Select races will also have full Shinko factory trackside support.

“We will continue to monitor, test and provide real time race track feedback as part of our effort to always evolve and continue to offer the best tire for all of our racers in the series. There will be $1000 Contingency available for the Open Amateur, Hooligan, Open Vintage and Pro-AM classes at every event except the Sturgis Races. There, we plan on doing something even better” says Jake Latimer “I believe this is just one step in the right direction to really open the door for Amateur racers across the Country. We understand racing is expensive, and this is a great way to keep Amateurs on top notch tires while maintaining fun and safety.
