Bosch announces charitable contribution to the Kyle Busch Foundation

Kyle Busch drove his Bosch-equipped No. 18 M&M’s Toyota Camry into victory lane on Sunday, clinching victory at the STP 500 at Martinsville Speedway and making him the proud new owner of one of the most iconic trophies in NASCAR® – the Martinsville Speedway grandfather clock. In recognition of Busch’s victory, the Bosch Automotive Aftermarket NA Giving Track Program is making a $1,000 charitable contribution to the Kyle Busch Foundation based in Mooresville, North Carolina. To date in 2016, Bosch has contributed $6,000 to the charities of its sponsored teams, $3,000 of which has been earned by Joe Gibbs Racing teams. The Kyle Busch Foundation is committed to empowering children, families and communities to overcome hardship by providing essential tools, including financial, material and experiential assistance, to allow them to live their best lives possible. The Foundation’s efforts are concentrated on assisting organizations that foster a stable and inspiring environment for children, families and communities to live, learn, challenge and empower themselves as well as ensuring their day-to-day needs are met.

 
“Kyle clearly demonstrated his skill and strength on the Martinsville track this weekend, claiming victory in both the Sprint Cup Series™ and Camping World Truck Series™ events,” said Tony Pauly, director of advertising and brand management for Robert Bosch LLC, Automotive Aftermarket North America. “Bosch is proud to be part of this winning Sprint Cup Series team, now in its seventh season of providing Kyle Busch and Joe Gibbs Racing with durable, high-quality parts.”
 
Bosch involvement in motorsports dates back to the early 1900’s, and it has been equipping NASCAR teams with parts and technical advice since 1991. In 2012, when the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series made the move from carbureted engines to more efficient fuel injected engines, Bosch became the sport’s exclusive oxygen sensor supplier. Beginning in 2016, Bosch has expanded its agreement with NASCAR to include fuel injectors and fuel pumps.
