    Who Gonzo's Backs

    Sponsor
    ships.

    We put our logo on the side of a race car because we believe in the people behind it. Here's who we're backing this season.

    Featured Team

    Michael Moore
    Racing. #8.

    Why we're on the car.

    Michael Moore Racing is a working-class team. The car gets built in a home shop. The crew shows up on weeknights after their day jobs. Every dollar of sponsorship goes into tires, fuel, and parts - not marketing.

    That's exactly the kind of operation Speedy Gonzo's is built to back. Same hours, same hustle, same neighborhood. When we put a sticker on the #8, we're saying: these are our people.

    What We Look For

    How we pick
    who we back.

    We're a one-truck operation - our sponsorship budget is real, but small. Four things move us off the sidelines.

    Local first

    If you're racing, building, or volunteering in Peoria, Bloomington, Springfield, or Chicagoland - you're in our backyard. Local money should stay local.

    Hands-on people

    Race teams, trade-school programs, working-class community projects. People who turn wrenches, drive trucks, and show up. Our crowd.

    Veterans + first responders

    Efren served U.S. Army Infantry. We give the 15% honor discount on hauling and back vet- or first-responder-led teams whenever we can.

    Long-term, not one-and-done

    We commit to a season, not a logo placement. Decals on the car, signal-boost on social, real word-of-mouth. The handshake matters more than the contract.

    Got a team? A project?

    Pitch us your
    sponsorship.

    Racing teams, youth sports, trade-school programs, veteran efforts, community drives - if you're local and working hard, send it our way. We read every message.
