Scag Named a Preferred Partner of Brainerd International Raceway

New partnership brings trusted commercial-grade equipment and shared motorsports values to one of the Midwest’s premier racing destinations.

Scag Power Equipment, a division of Metalcraft of Mayville, has become a Preferred Partner of Brainerd International Raceway. Fans attending races this season will see the popular “Cat’s Eye Gold” colored equipment in use throughout the facility as it is being used for upkeep on and around the dragstrip, road course, and drifting competition areas.

Equipment such as the popular Windstorm stand-on blower will be used on track surfaces to keep them clean between races, while other equipment including the Liberty Z and Turf Tiger II zero-turn riding mowers will be used for track maintenance and grounds upkeep.

“Brainerd International Raceway has non-stop events on multiple tracks at the facility from April through October. Because of that we need a lot of equipment to keep the raceway in great condition for the racers and fans,” said General Manager, Sara Walker. “We know how much difference it will make to have Scag Power Equipment utilized on the track, midway areas, and campgrounds.”

The Scag Racing team visits Brainerd International Raceway every August as a part of the NHRA national touring series. PACE Inc is a distributor for Scag Power Equipment in the northern U.S., who will be supplying equipment to the Brainerd track. “Everyone looks forward to attending the Brainerd NHRA national event each summer,” said Jason Fox, VP of Sales for PACE Inc. “We entertain a lot of guests in the pit area, grandstands, and in the Zoo campground during the race weekend. It will be nice to see Scag Power Equipment being used throughout the facility.”
