DARTON SLEEVES TEAMS UP WITH SPEEDFACTORY RACING FOR 2015!

Tacoma, Washington – Darton Sleeves and SpeedFactory Racing are joining forces for the 2015 drag race season. Darton Sleeves will be used in all 3 SpeedFactory race cars and SpeedFactory has become a Master Wholesale and Retail distributor for the entire Darton Sleeve product line.

Darton International was incorporated in 1978 with a goal of becoming a premier manufacturer of automotive speed equipment parts. Started by 2 ex drag racers from the 60’s they were approached with the task of supplying sleeves for the fastest cars in the world. With Keith Black being their first customer Darton set out to set the industry standard when it came to block sleeving. Darton has its own proprietary material that far exceeds the material of any of its competitors. Based on an ISTM spec Darton changed the metallurgy of ductile iron so it can be used in a performance automotive application. This eventually led to the inception of the DDI2007 superior strength ductile iron which is used today by teams like John Force Racing, Schumacher Racing, Kalitta Racing and many more. Along with their superior strength ductile iron Darton is known for its Modular Integrated Deck or MID Sleeves and Seal Tight Sleeves. These innovative designs are engineered to not meet but exceed all of their customer performance and horsepower needs. The MID was first developed for John Lingenfelter when he raced for GM. Most recently the MID Sleeve is now being used by Dart Machinery in their new Dart LS Next block.

“Darton Sleeves is synonymous with working with the best and the fastest cars in the world. Teaming up with SpeedFactory adds to that legacy as they are the example of what import drag racing is all about. They are one of the most professional import teams out there today so we are very proud to be a part of their race program. Looking forward to a great 2015 season!” said Mr John Catapang from Darton International INC.

SpeedFactory Racing is a high performance tuning and race development shop located in Tacoma, Washington, just outside of Seattle. Their mission is to continue pushing the envelope of sport compact drag racing while providing their customers and partners worldwide with the highest quality service, parts, and custom work possible.

SpeedFactory Racing continues its growth by signing on another new sponsor in what General Manager Matthew Hurlbut calls “another step forward for our company and our drag race program. We need the highest quality engine sleeves possible in our cars - we have a lot of respect for Darton International as they have proven they are the best and having them integrated with our race team is extremely exciting”.
