Mystik® Lubricants Announces New Sponsorship of Cognito Motorsports
HOUSTON, June 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Mystik Lubricants is the new, official lubricant sponsor of Cognito Motorsports, a manufacturer of innovative, industry-leading suspension and steering components for trucks and UTVs that puts these components to the test through its off-road racing team. Utilizing Mystik engine oil and grease, Cognito Motorsports will compete in several exciting off-road races this year, including the Best in the Desert (BITD) series of races in Arizona and Nevada, as well as the SCORE Baja 500 and Baja 1,000 races which take loyal fans all over Baja California, Mexico.
"A sponsorship of Cognito Motorsports is the perfect fit for the Mystik brand, as our cutting-edge products are well designed for high-performance, high-demanding race environments under challenging weather conditions," said Karl Schmidt, general manager of petrochemicals and lubricants. "Aligning Mystik products with such an amazing off-road racing team is a golden opportunity that we are certain to dominate," added Schmidt.
The first race of the season, the Baja 500 took place the first weekend in June. Set on a 500 mile course starting and finishing in Ensenada, Mexico, Congnito Motorsports raced for over 14 hours, before securing a 3rd place finish. Baja 1,000 takes place November 12-17, covering approximately 1,130 miles traveling from Ensenada all the way to La Paz, Mexico. Both races are part of the 2014 SCORE World Desert Championship.
"Desert racing is a true test of equipment, and we always push ours to the limits," said Justin Lambert, owner and driver of Cognito Motorsports PRO UTV #1918. "Mystik JT-8® Synthetic Engine Oil and JT-6® Grease have gone the distance for us in our off-road race vehicles at long races like the BITD Vegas to Reno, and the SCORE Baja 1000. Now we use it in our chase trucks as well!" he concluded.
