Vic Edelbrock, President and CEO of Edelbrock Corporation, commented, “We are excited about this contest. It gives us another channel to communicate the message that Edelbrock is passionate about performance. Customer feedback has always been important to us and this is an excellent forum.”
“Edelbrock started making parts 70 years ago because there was a need from the community for performance,” said James Schiefer, President/CEO of Schiefer Media, Inc., Edelbrock’s PR firm. “The need for performance still exists and Edelbrock’s ability to dialogue with the community is still just as important.
