SH Rallycross Showcases HAUS in Charlotte

(DALLAS) July 23, 2014 – SH Racing Rallycross is proud to announce that HAUS™  Personal Vaporizer by Mistic® will serve as primary sponsor at this weekend’s event at The Dirt Track at Charlotte Motor Speedway. The No. 07 Ford Fiesta of Nelson Piquet, Jr. will showcase a special blue and white HAUS livery during the fifth round of Red Bull Global Rallycross competition. Mistic, makers of the HAUS Personal Vaporizer  and high quality, value-priced e-cigs, is headquartered in Charlotte, N.C. and  a full-season partner of SH Rallycross.

“We are extremely excited to be the primary sponsor of Nelson Piquet Jr. at Charlotte, the hometown of both Mistic and Nelson,” said John Wiesehan Jr., CEO of Mistic.  “Piquet’s ability to win as a great driver and the fan-centric Red Bull GRC series is a great fit for us as we focus on current adult smokers looking for even more choices to switch to significant alternatives like our Haus-branded personal vaporizer, e-liquids and accessories.”

The HAUS Personal Vaporizer by Mistic was introduced in April nationwide. Sold as a complete starter system, HAUS is equipped with a specially designed unit and tank, as well as a sleek, soft handle for added comfort and style, high-powered lithium-ion battery, USB charger and lanyard for easy access.

Allowing vapers the flexibility to choose from a variety of taste profiles, HAUS offers eight distinct, made-in-the-USA e-juice blends: American Blend, Cool Ice, Washington Red, Java, Ocean Mist, Mango, Grape and Berry.  All HAUS e-liquids come in 10mL tamper- and child-proof, slow-drip bottles.

“Charlotte is a special weekend for myself and Haus as this is the home race for both of us,” said Piquet Jr., who lives just outside Charlotte. “We’re leading the championship and now we are looking forward to getting our first race win with the Haus Personal Vaporizer car this weekend.”

Four races into their debut season, SH Rallycross sits atop the championship point standings. Piquet Jr. took the lead following his second place finish at last weekend’s event in Long Island, New York. The team has finished on the podium each of the last three events, including becoming an X Games medalist after capturing the bronze last month at X Games Austin.

Red Bull Global Rallycross events are designed to produce the fastest and most exciting racing in all of motorsport. Tracks are between a half a mile and a mile in length, featuring a mixture of dirt, tarmac, and other obstacles. GRC vehicles are able to produce 600 horsepower, accelerate from 0-60 miles per hour in 1.9 seconds, withstand 70-foot jumps, and do not include traction control. Events include qualifying; heat races; a last-chance qualifier; and the final, where the winner is determined. Charlotte, the fifth of ten races, will be broadcast live Saturday, July 26 on NBC at 2 p.m. ET.
