JL Motorsports Welcomes WIX Filters
JL Motorsports is proud to announce that Jordan Latimer’s No. 90 Limited Late Model at Sunset Speedway will be sponsored by WIX Filters.

Since 1939, WIX® Filters has been an innovator in filtration products. WIX designs, manufactures and distributes products for automotive, diesel, agricultural, industrial and specialty filter markets.

Latimer is currently in the process of getting ready for his fourth season of competition at Sunset Speedway.

“The goal for 2018 season is to go out and be better we were in 2017,” he said. “Hopefully grab a couple feature wins and I’m confident in the work we are going to be putting in this winter we can compete for a championship.”

With nine top-fives and 17 top-10’s, Latimer put together an impressive season at Sunset Speedway en route to placing seventh in the year-end standings. He was also able to score his first career Late Model victory on September 2.

“2017 was a big year,” he said. “I don’t remember a night all summer where we unloaded and didn’t feel like we weren’t going to be running up front competing for the win! Looking back on the season as a hole I think it was a huge success. We only had one weekend where we were caught up in a wreck so that’s huge! Gave us a lot of time to work on set up and not on body work. We had multiple shots for a win this season, whether it was off a late restart, tire strategy, or just starting position compared to other drivers. But it felt really good going out this season competing up front compared to our prior season and the luck we had then.”

WIX Filters joins previously announced KICX 106, 104.1 The Dock, and Kitchen Tire as sponsors for 2018.
