Antron Brown\u2019s Top Fuel dragster will serve as the centerpiece of Matco Tools\u2019 REX 2.0 launch at the In-N-Out Burger NHRA Finals. The car will debut a custom wrap celebrating the company\u2019s new 1\/2-inch Impact Wrench, its textured grip and Matco\u2019s iconic eagle.<\/p>\n
The REX 2.0 builds on Matco\u2019s original pneumatic impact wrench with increased power, updated ergonomics and a new design. It delivers up to 1,900 ft-lbs of breakaway torque and features lightweight composite construction, a variable-speed trigger and an enhanced grip designed to improve comfort and control.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m ready to go into the NHRA Finals with the Matco REX 2.0 Top Fuel car,\u201d Antron Brown said. \u201cIt\u2019s really cool that Matco is utilizing our partnership to help promote this new product, especially on the heels of our recent extension announcement.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s one thing for people to see the new product, but it\u2019s a whole other thing to see the product at work, and we can provide that with our unique drag racing experience.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMatco Tools REX 2.0 1\/2-inch Impact Wrench represents exactly what we\u2019re focused on at Matco: advancing the tools professionals depend on every day,\u201d said Cameron Richardson, Group President of Matco Tools. \u201cWe took the power technicians expect from their Impact Wrench and paired it with our latest thinking in ergonomics, control and design. And when you\u2019re launching a tool built to deliver this kind of performance, putting it on a Top Fuel dragster feels right at home.\u201d<\/p>\n
The season finale will bring Matco distributors and customers together at the track, where they can see the new tool and experience its performance and grip in heavy-duty applications.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is much bigger than putting a new product on a race car,\u201d Richardson added. \u201cWe\u2019re putting Matco\u2019s REX 2.0 in the hands of the professionals it was designed for. The dragster gets people\u2019s attention. The experience of using the tool is what tells the real story.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Matco Tools REX 2.0 Top Fuel dragster is scheduled to make its on-track debut Nov. 13-15 at the In-N-Out Burger NHRA Finals in Pomona, California.<\/p>\n
