Doug Simpson Racing Announces New Advertising Partner
Franksville, WI (January 16, 2025) – ODYSSEY® batteries and Doug Simpson Racing are teaming up for the 2025 season of the National Hot Rod Association's (NHRA) Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series.
The partnership will debut at the Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park on April 25-27, 2025. Doug Simpson, the driver in the Super Gas Division, is excited about the collaboration:
“I’m thrilled to have ODYSSEY® batteries on board for the 2025 season,” said Simpson. “Years ago, after a competitor’s battery failed after a quality control issue, I knew I needed to go a different direction and move to a higher quality replacement. ODYSSEY® batteries stood out with their superior starting power, extended lifespan, and high-temperature tolerance.”
Simpson continued, explaining the technical advantages of ODYSSEY® batteries:
“Their AGM (absorbent glass mat) design offers maintenance-free operation and more plate surface area than traditional batteries. I can feel the difference in cranking power, and the deep-cycle reserve is like having two batteries in one. I use the EXTREME series for competition, but ODYSSEY® offers batteries for a wide range of applications, from cars and trucks to power sports and RVs.”
“The demands of NHRA racing require a dependable electrical system,” Simpson added. “I can rely on ODYSSEY® batteries round after round, and I’m excited to have them as a partner.”
