Casey’s Announces ‘Casey’s Hometown Racer’ to be Awarded at the 2022 Red Bull Soapbox Race Iowa 

Winning and runner up team members to receive free Casey’s pizza for a year

Casey’s is partnering with Red Bull in this year’s Red Bull Soapbox Race Iowa. The Iowa-based, third largest convenience retailer will announce one lucky car as ‘Casey’s Hometown Racer’ at the June 18 event in Des Moines.

“We’re excited to play a role in the race as it draws passionate racers and fans from all over, and puts an exciting spotlight on Des Moines. Casey’s is rooted in local communities across 16 states and we’re looking for hometown-themed cars that celebrate where they’re from,” said Tom Brennan, Chief Merchandising Officer, Casey’s.

The ‘Casey’s Hometown Racer’ will recognize the vehicle that reflects the heart of its community. The criteria include vehicles with designs reflecting:

• The city/town they are from; and
• What the racer/team loves most about Casey’s.

A committee will select one winning and one runner up team, and each team member on the two teams will receive free pizza for a year in their Casey’s Rewards account.

About Red Bull / Red Bull Soapbox

About Red Bull Soapbox Race:

The Red Bull Soapbox Race is a race competition in which amateur teams see who can navigate their homemade cart the fastest through a downhill course, filled with obstacles and potential crashes, in front of a crowd of tens-of-thousands. Although the thrills and spills of the race can generate the crowds’ biggest roars, the event is fueled by more than just the need for speed. Teams are judged on a criterion of one-third speed, one-third creativity, and one-third showmanship. So, in addition to building the quickest cart, teams will also need to impress the judges and crowd by how outrageous and charismatic they can be.
