For avid race fans, the professional racetrack is a place to cheer on their favorite drivers as they compete to take home the checkered flag. For WIX Filters, a speedway represents one of the world’s best research facilities. In fact, partnerships with NASCAR’s leading teams and vehicle manufacturers help WIX engineers develop innovative components and technologies for both race cars and everyday vehicles.

WIX maintains a 15-year relationship as an associate sponsor of Joe Gibbs Racing as well as a partnership with Toyota Racing Development that extends to the very first Toyota in NASCAR, Robert Huffman’s #38 Toyota Celica, which started in the 2000 Goody’s Dash Series. WIX’s partnership with Toyota Racing Development (TRD) includes the design and supply of WIX filters for all Toyota vehicles racing in every NASCAR series, including the Camry and Tundra. These two partnerships drew even closer with the recent news that Joe Gibbs Racing will be switching from Chevrolet to Toyota in 2008.
