CARSTAR puts its development program in high gear at Kansas Speedway

May 19, 2015
CARSTAR Auto Body Repair Experts shifted its development program into high gear with an innovative industry event – at Kansas Speedway.

CARSTAR Auto Body Repair Experts shifted its development program into high gear with an innovative industry event – at Kansas Speedway.  CARSTAR partnered with BASF to host collision repair shop owners from around the country for an outing that included lots of horsepower – and an opportunity to see some high-speed collision repair.

The day started with a tailgate hosted by BASF’s Rick Johnson.  After some good food and friendly conversation, the group was escorted to the infield of the speedway for a tour of the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series garage and pit road, where they were able to get a behind-the-scenes view of the race teams as they prepared for the evening’s race.  The group was then able to watch the SpongeBob SquarePants 400, which featured a great late-race gamble that put Jimmie Johnson in victory lane. 

“All of our guests and employees had a great time,” said Scott Robertson, Vice President of Development for CARSTAR Auto Body Repair Experts.  “This was a unique way to share the benefits of joining the CARSTAR network and our powerful BASF partnership.  And, it was a great opportunity to build relationships with store owners as they evaluate their business options.”
