United States Auto Club Silver Crown Series and King of the Wing National Sprint Car Series standout Bobby Santos III is pleased to announce a technical alliance with Mayhew Tools. The alliance will see the Turner Falls, Massachusetts company teaming up with the Franklin, Massachusetts native for the remainder of the 2017 Silver Crown and Wing Sprint Car Series schedule.
August 12th will see the debut of the Mayhew Tools colors at the USAC Silver Crown race at Salem Speedway in Salem, Indiana and culminating with the King of the Wings Sprint Car Series races on November 18th and 19th at Irwindale Speedway and Kern County Speedway in California.
Mayhew Tools reflects the spirit of America: rugged, dependable, and uniquely positioned to stand the test of time. Known for true American craftsmanship, Mayhew forges the best tools from the finest materials. That’s a tradition Mayhew is dedicated to upholding. In fact, Mayhew believes so strongly in the viability of American manufacturing that it has re-invested in plant equipment and new production facilities while purchasing two new U.S. plastics companies to extend is vertical integration and expand its growing U.S. supply chain of raw materials. The Mayhew legacy has remained firm. We absolutely refuse to sacrifice quality and remain committed to manufacturing tools our customers can rely on and believe in.
“I am excited to begin the partnership with John Lawless and Mayhew Tools. Their dedication to manufacturing tools that are exceptional, reliable, and tough is second to none. Mayhew Tools is truly a company dedicated to building tools that are not just good enough. To be able to partner with a company whose history dates back to 1856 is truly an honor. I look forward to promoting this great American company and am truly grateful for their help with my racing career,” said Bobby Santos about the partnership.
“We are looking forward to being able to create this partnership with Bobby Santos. Bobby is a great ambassador for the auto racing industry and we are certain that he will also be a great ambassador for Mayhew Tools,” said John Lawless, President of Mayhew Tools. “We have built a great foundation in the Northeast and we are excited to expand on this foundation nationally with Bobby in the Midwest and West coast this fall.”
Bobby’s next race will be this Saturday, August 12th with the United States Auto Club Silver Crown Series at the famous Salem Speedway in southern Indiana. Be sure to come and support Bobby this weekend and also check out Mayhew Tools at www.Mayhew.com.

Hey Indy Car owners!!!! put this kid in a car!!!
Probably the one of the most talented versatile drivers in the country. Great kid, and comes from a wonderful family. He is having a great silver crown season.
Good Luck Bobby !
A couple of years ago, there was a decision Tony Stewart had to make as far as Bobby, and Bryan Clauson , to see who gets the ride in Tony’s car. (At the time, Bobby was working for Stewart). The ride eventually was given to Clauson, because he was more experienced in the dirt. The only reason!
Billy Parker,
It’s funny that you mentioned Santos for a ride in an Indycar. Robin Miller last week on his web site how he would love to see a few drivers take a chance in Indycar. Santos was one of the first names mentioned. Would love to see that as well!
