Today is the day the nine-round 2021 TexPlex SxS Race Series kicks off at the Midlothian, TX facility. With a total series purse of $200,000, racers are expecting this series to be one of the most hotly contested UTV battles in the country this year. Top teams and riders have all confirmed that they will be participating and some of the biggest names in the industry have joined on as sponsors to keep UTV short-track racing progressing. The perfect backdrop for Gates to showcase its G-Force brand of high performance powersports CVT belts.
“We are thrilled to be a part of this growing race series” says Joe Menzel, General Manager of Gates Mobility & Recreation business unit. “Many of the teams racing the TexPlex SxS Race Series have been upgrading their vehicles to run our G-Force RedLine in recent years, so it was a natural fit to expand our partnership with the organizers and help this series grow even further.”
Gates G-Force RedLine CVT belts are engineered from a patented, fiber-reinforced Ethylene Elastomer compound. "This provides maximum transverse stiffness and unmatched heat resistance which allows for increased durability, greater load-carrying capability and a higher effective operating temperature," according to Menzel. G-Force RedLine belts deliver:
• Excellent recovery from temperatures up to 338°F (170°C) without power loss
• Up to 300% increased belt life
• Up to 50% lower speed losses under heavy loads and torque
