General Tire used the recent Autosport International Show at the NEC to mark its supply deal with the exciting NASCAR Whelan Euro Series to unveil a branded race car promoting the championship.

General Tire, part of the Continental group since 1987, will be providing the teams with slick and wet-versions of its new NWES GT model in size 11.5/ 27.5 R 15 for both front and rear wheels. Guy Frobisher, Senior Project Manager at General Tire in Europe, said: “As one of Europe’s largest motorsport events, Autosport International was a fantastic platform to present ourselves as Official Tyre Partner of the NASCAR Whelen Euro Series. This is just the beginning of the exciting journey between the two brands and I look forward to the start of the series in April.”
