PATRICK EMERLING PARTNERS WITH FIRST RESPONDER COMPANIES AT LAS VEGAS

MOORESVILLE, NC, February 28, 2024 – NASCAR Xfinity Series driver Patrick Emerling announced today his partnership with three companies aimed at supporting first responders when he hits the track at Las Vegas Motor Speedway this weekend: Frontline Optics, American Fire Brigade and Williams Key. 

Frontline Optics is a retired firefighter-owned sunglasses brand based out of San Diego. They manufacture durable, affordable sunglasses for first responders and supporters of the first responder community. A portion of each sale is donated to the First Responders Children’s Foundation, which provides assistance to the children and families of first responders killed or injured in the line of duty. Order your “Sunglasses Designed with the Frontline in Mind” at https://frontline-optics.com/ and follow Frontline Optics on Instagram (@frontlineoptics) or Facebook (@frontlineopticseyewear). 

“We are excited for the opportunity to sponsor Patrick and the SS-GreenLight Racing team on a national stage and hope to raise some awareness for our brand and the mission behind our products to the NASCAR community,” said Frontline Optics founder Mike Ettenberg. 

American Fire Brigade was created by an American Navy Veteran and current firefighter to entertain the fire front and share the humor that embodies all first responders. The brand sells real deal off-duty fire slayer apparel for all, even those who “almost” signed up for the job. Apparel that tells a story, even if it’s bull. Get your “Smart Ass Fire Apparel” at https://americanfirebrigade.com/ and follow them on Instagram (@americanfirebrigade). 

The Williams Key is an emergency entry tool that was developed by a firefighter in Los Angeles to gain quick access to doors on the scene of emergency calls. It’s fast, efficient and causes no damage. It works well on gates with anti-vandal plates, elevator control rooms, commercial utility doors, and many other outward swinging metal and wood doors. There is also a heavy-duty shove-knife built in to allow for the piercing of wood trim on the frame of a residential inward swinging door. Learn more at https://williamskey.com and https://www.facebook.com/thewilliamskey. 

“Williams Key, Inc is grateful to be a part of supporting Patrick’s team and the NASCAR vision of uncompromising American spirit,” said creator and founder Trevor Williams. 

“First responders are a special breed. They sacrifice a lot to keep our communities safe no matter the risk, yet they manage to keep a sense of humor and humility,” said Emerling. “I am proud to partner with Frontline Optics, American Fire Brigade and Williams Key. I can’t wait to have them out to the track!” 

Additionally, Emerling will welcome back season-long partners Southern Tier Security (https://www.southerntiersecurity.net/), a watch patrol company based in Olean, NY, and SimForge (https://simforge.in/), which sells sim racing equipment and accessories. 

Emerling finished 17th in the United Rentals 300 race at Daytona International Speedway on February 19 after several lengthy rain delays. Handling issues contributed to a frustrating 33rd place finish in the RAPTOR King of Tough 250 at Atlanta Motor Speedway on February 24. Emerling is hopeful that Lady Luck will be on his side in Las Vegas. 

In addition to his duties with SS-GreenLight, Emerling will be competing full-time in the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour with car owner Rich Gautreau. He finished fourth in the Tour’s season opener at New Smyrna Speedway on February 10.

PATRICK EMERLING PARTNERS WITH FLORIDA LAW FIRM PHILLIPS & HUNT

MOORESVILLE, NC, February 14, 2024 – NASCAR Xfinity Series driver Patrick Emerling announced today his partnership with Phillips, Hunt, Walker & Hanna for the 2024 season opener at Daytona International Speedway. The partnership aims to raise awareness of the law firm’s commitment to Justice 4 All, regardless of race, religion, creed, orientation or gender. Among the firm’s high-profile cases is that of Joe Exotic of Netflix’s Tiger King fame.

“Growing up near Daytona and Talladega, NASCAR has a special place in my heart,” said Phillips, Hunt, Walker & Hanna partner John M. Phillips. “I love teaming up with Patrick Emerling and his team and getting people thinking about justice but also my good friend and client Joe Exotic.”

Joe Exotic, whose real name is Joseph Maldonado, is the Tiger King. Since growing up in Texas and Oklahoma, he’s had a fond love of taking care of people and animals, but especially tigers. Netflix’s show Tiger King still stands as one of the most popular television shows in history. Season two addresses Joe’s claim that he was set up by animal rights groups, federal government and people who sought to take his legacy. 

“My case has finally been turned over to the appellate court and we just want a new fair trial,” said Joseph Maldonado, aka Joe Exotic. “I truly appreciate NASCAR, the Daytona International Speedway and Team Emerling for taking time to remind everyone that our justice system is unfair. Free Joe Exotic! And win the damn thing, Patrick!”

“I’m grateful for the support of Phillips, Hunt, Walker & Hanna and all of my other partners as we start the 2024 NASCAR Xfinity Series season,” said Emerling. “John Phillips’ passion for justice and his compassion for not only the people he represents but the community at large is truly inspiring. I’m proud to represent him and his firm this weekend.”

Gladiator Cargo Nets will join Phillips & Hunt as an associate partner for this weekend’s Xfinity Series race at Daytona. Gladiator offers heavy duty truck bed cargo nets for consumer and commercial applications. You can learn more about them at https://gladiatorcargonet.com/ or follow them on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/GladiatorCargoNets), X (https://twitter.com/gladiator_cargo) or YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwR1a-90i2e2jziv4EFOJmQ/videos).

Emerling also announced several other partners today. Southern Tier Security (https://www.southerntiersecurity.net/), a watch patrol company based in Olean, NY, will serve as primary sponsor for at least four races in the 2024 season. Frontline Optics (https://frontline-optics.com/), which manufactures sunglasses designed to withstand the demands of frontline workers like firefighters and police officers, will serve as a primary sponsor for at least one race this season. SimForge (https://simforge.in/), which sells sim racing equipment and accessories, will support Emerling as a season-long associate sponsor. Emerling will announce additional sponsors over the coming weeks.

After serving as part owner of and a driver for Emerling-Gase Motorsports during the 2023 NASCAR Xfinity Series season, Emerling decided to partner with SS-GreenLight Racing as primary driver of the #07 Chevrolet Camaro for the 2024 NASCAR Xfinity Series season. The change allows Emerling to focus fully on his racing schedule. In addition to his duties with SS-GreenLight, Emerling will be competing full-time in the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour with car owner Rich Gautreau. He finished fourth in the Tour’s season opener at New Smyrna Speedway on February 10. Emerling will also compete in several Tour Modified races with his #07 team, including at New Smyrna Speedway this week leading up to this weekend’s races at Daytona International Speedway.
