I manage a NASCAR Late Model Race Team in Calif. [short track] We picked up this latest sponsor at a lowpoint in our 12 years. Mid-season 2004 and out of funds, he was truly our 'gift from God'
Gentlemen, I would like to introduce you to our idea of 'Made in America'... "Mr Ed Lopes" of Villa Roma Gourmet Sausage. He is a small business owner in Ontario, Ca with a big heart, high standards and a big dream! High 'pork market,' sales down, nothing can shake his POSITIVE attitude! He has had such an effect on my race team! We recently heard he had to lay off employees that worked there 10 yrs, we all felt his loss, but he honored his committment to us... and the Irwindale Speedway.
This team is happy to take a cut in pay to finish this season, actually, NOTHING could make us take the Villa Roma colors off our racecar!! Ed and Margaret Lopes are our hero's. I hope you will check them out? http://www.villaromasausage.com
