American Race Car
American Race Car was founded in 2007 by Darrell Ketch. ARC is the industry leader in "steet legal" race cars built for advertising and promotional tours. In the coming years ARC will become the industry leader in racecar themed furniture through expansion of our dealer network. Hundreds of companies throughout the United States use auto racing to advertise their products to new and existing customers in an exciting and colorful manner. Our proprietary and durable fiber glass products help take the advertising message from the racetrack to their showrooms to greatly increase the advertising impact at a reasonable cost.
Currently located in Portland Oregon, ARC will relocate to Las Vegas, NV in 2012. Plans for 2013 include adding 6 dealerships in the U.S., and expanding to 12 dealer locations in 2014. This expansion will enable our clients to purchase a customized racing furniture product in a timely manner and yet have a local option for additional purchases or product servicing. The staff at ARC looks forward to working with you to maximize your advertising appeal or create that ultimate theme room at home.
