Default Exciting news at Hurricane Motorsports!

First, we would like to say thanks for being patient and bearing with us during this pause in production, but (as you will soon see) we are pretty excited about the results...

Mike and I are very pleased to announce a new owner of Hurricane Motorsports. Please join us in welcoming Joe Partain as the new owner of Hurricane Motorsports! We have been talking with Joe for some time now and have come to an agreement on the sale of the entire company. A critical part of this process for Mike and I was finding a new owner that exhibited the same fundamental values for the company that we have worked hard to reflect in the business: Honesty, integrity, a strong belief in customer service, and a dedication to the product. Joe brings all of that and more to the table taking over the leadership and direction of Hurricane Motorsports. Another aspect that Joe brings to the company is that he has an extensive mechanical engineering background (suspension design and vehicle dynamics in particular). We feel that Joe's technical background coupled with his enthusiasm for Hurricane's line of products will take Hurricane Motorsports to new heights. We feel very lucky to have a new owner that will continue the success and vision of Hurricane Motorsports. More on this from Joe in the future I am sure!

Now for some more good news: Hurricane will now be taking kit orders again immediately for interested parties. This is for the current standard kit offering and the kit price will remain at the amazing price of $15,990! And for the first time ever, Hurricane will be officially offering a turn key minus product at $29,990 including IRS and a bunch of other goodies! The Hurricane Motorsports web site will be updated with the details of this new offering very soon.

To ensure a smooth transition for the new ownership, Mike, Jason, and I will be working closely with Joe and his team for the next few months to help keep things running smoothly so you will probably hear from us from time-to-time. As you can probably tell, we still believe strongly in the Hurricane Motorsports brand and are working hard to make sure Joe has everything he needs to take Hurricane Motorsports to the next level.

Again, thank you for your patience waiting for us to complete this process. We know it took a bit longer than anticipated, but we hope you are as excited as we are about what the future holds for Hurricane Motorsports!

Regards,
Rich Burroughs
Mike Arps
