Fueled by a vision and passion to bring inspiration and innovation to the flavored whiskey market, OilFire\u2019s handcrafted secret sauce results in defining each consumer\u2019s individual palate, ensuring that beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder.<\/p>\n<p>Rooted in family legend, the proprietary OilFire blueprint is inspired by the famed Oklahoma oil boom of the early 1900s. After the original family recipe was lost over time, OilFire founder, chairman and CEO Ken Williams championed the effort to recreate his family\u2019s secret recipe to share with clients, friends and family.<\/p>\n<p>The result was a smooth, refined flavored rye whiskey that pleases the most discriminating preferences.<\/p>\n<p>OilFire is not at all unfamiliar to motorsports, with sponsorships in dirt midgets and sprint cars, but the Digital Ally 400 will mark OilFire\u2019s first foray into NASCAR Cup Series competition.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we took a look at how we\u2019re marketing OilFire Rye Whiskey, it was important to identify with our current footprint but still focus on growing the brand outside the state of Oklahoma,\u201d said Williams. \u201cWe think the NASCAR fan and race fans in general, are individuals of legal drinking age who enjoy a premium rye whiskey. Those are consumers who we want to interface with. When Spire Motorsports presented the opportunity to showcase OilFire in prime time on Saturday night, we made our decision fairly quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to add OilFire Rye Whiskey to Spire Motorsports growing list of sponsors,\u201d added Spire Motorsports co-owner T.J. Puchyr. \u201cWe\u2019re always pleased to bring new sponsors into the NASCAR space and introduce them to the most brand-loyal fan base in professional sports. Ken and Amber Williams have created a vibrant and dynamic brand. They\u2019re committed to growth and marketing OilFire to a loyal, of-legal-drinking age demographic. Collectively, we all think this is a perfect fit. We\u2019re eager to host them at Kansas Speedway and show them what the sport can do to support that growth. Quin is an exciting, energetic young driver who will do a great job for OilFire on the track.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spire Motorsports has secured primary sponsorship from OilFire Rye Whiskey for Saturday night\u2019s Digital Ally 400 at Kansas Speedway.
