A very successful 15th annual Hangover 150 Enduro officially kicked off the 2015 season at the Big R just a week ago. With the ink barely dry on the sign-in sheets, work immediately shifted back to the regular season schedule including the renewing of many sponsorship and advertising programs.


"Pepsi-Cola has been the official soft drink distributor at Ransomville Speedway for the better part of the last two decades,"

says Ransomville Speedway public relations director and marketing contact Tana Robinson. "We work closely with our rep Joe Kasbaum to ensure Pepsi receives the most exposure possible," continued Robinson. "One of these ways is by outfitting our concession employees with official Pepsi t-shirts as their uniform." Distributed locally on Walden Avenue in Buffalo, Pepsi-Cola supplies the Big R with several different products sold weekly through the concession stands including the very popular brands of Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, and Mountain Dew.
