“We are extremely excited about working with MotoAmerica, which has made it possible for the event to return to the world-famous Barber Motorsports Park,” stated George Dennis, president of ZOOM Motorsports, the exclusive event promoter of the Barber Motorsports Park. “Although Triumph will not be the title sponsor this year, we are still very much so in partnership with them and will continue to work on growing that relationship.”’
