INDIANAPOLIS (December 2, 2024) — One of the main benefits for all the professional teams participating in the 2nd annual SCAG Power Equipment PRO Superstar Shootout, February 6-8, 2025, in Bradenton, Florida will be getting in front of fans but also getting a jump start on off-season performance adjustments. Callies Performance Products, a premier sponsor for the event, will be supporting the teams and the PRO Superstar Shootout for the second year in a row. Callies crankshafts will be inside several professional team’s engines and throughout the event their performance products, that were produced in their state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, will be put to the test on the track.

“One thing we are looking for with our marketing partners like Callies, is working with companies that are committed to excellence and quality both on and off the track,” said Chad Head, PRO Board Member. “Many teams rely on Callies Performance Products so aligning with them for the PRO Superstar Shootout was a natural fit.
