MELLVILLE, N.Y. – Sanit Hand Sanitizer has signed on to sponsor NHRA Top Fuel competitor Justin Ashley and the Davis Motorsports team for the remainder of the season.

The partnership is set to begin at the Denso Spark Plugs NHRA U.S. Nationals on Labor Day Weekend.

This event will also be host to the final round from the rain-delayed NHRA Summernationals held in Indianapolis just a few weeks earlier. Ashley is set to take on T.J. Zizzo as they each compete for their first NHRA Top Fuel win. This will be the first time since 1997 two first time finalists will race in an NHRA Top Fuel final round.

“Justin Ashley and I both know the health concerns associated with COVID-19. We have been in business for over a decade and have expert chemists on staff. When the virus first hit America, Sanit got right on it and retrofitted our US facility to supply the world with the best, high-quality, FDA-registered hand sanitizer available. Justin saw our commitment to safety and we both chose each other to get Sanit’s branding awareness out to the public” said Samuel Scharf, CMO of Sanit.

“As a professional race car driver I take safety very seriously,” Ashley said. “Now more than ever, the health and safety of ourselves and those around us is top priority. Adding Sanit to our program allows my team and me to be proactive in taking steps towards working in a safer environment. In addition, I am excited to help introduce Sanit to the public arena. They make an incredibly effective hand sanitizer that smells good and leaves your hands feeling soft. It’s a perfect fit for both consumers and businesses.”

Ashley is currently fifth in the NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series Top Fuel standings during his rookie season.

“This has been a great season for us, even with all of the unpredictable storylines connected to the pandemic,” Ashley said. “We are grateful NHRA has added races to keep the season moving along and I look forward to getting a chance to win my first Top Fuel event in Indianapolis.”
