Today, European Top Fuel Record Holder Ida Zetterstr\u00f6m announced a new global partnership between Edelbrock Group and KW Parts (Klintberg & Way Group) to support her efforts in winning the FIA Championship driving for RF Motorsport. Edelbrock Group helped Zetterstr\u00f6m in her successful first FIA Top Fuel season in 2022, where the team became the first to clock a 3.7-second pass in Europe and picked up their first FIA event win together at Tierp Arena in Sweden.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

For 2023, Edelbrock is expanding its commitment to become a primary partner on her dragster alongside new sponsor KW Parts. The collaboration brings together two powerhouse companies on the side of the RF Motorsport Top Fueler. The Edelbrock Group brands represent nearly 130 years of building the best-known performance parts for racers and enthusiasts. Meanwhile, KW Parts, operating in 37 European countries, is Europe\u00b4s leading distributor of OE and aftermarket spare parts and accessories for American cars from the 1900s to today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zetterstr\u00f6m is excited by the prospects this partnership brings to the team. \u201cI saw an opportunity to bring together two great companies in KW Parts and Edelbrock in a way where we can all work together to bring business and racing forward; I see this being the start of something really outstanding,\u201d she said. \u201cJust as their products, the people at Edelbrock Group are top of the line. I feel very proud to represent such a solid and recognizable global brand \u2014 a brand I have used and loved for many years \u2014 and I am incredibly excited to grow our partnership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWelcoming KW Parts as a new sponsor aligns with my love for American cars, but it also represents our mutual commitment to growing drag racing and supporting enthusiasts across Europe. Having two amazing brands show faith in me to represent them at the highest level is humbling. I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve ever been this excited to start a race season as I am this year. I can\u2019t wait to get started.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Edelbrock Group Vice President of Sales and Marketing Mark Campbell sees the partnership as a win-win. \u201cThis marketing partnership between Edelbrock and KW is an excellent way for Edelbrock to grow our presence in the European market while showing our love and support of all forms of racing,\u201d he said. \u201cWe couldn\u2019t ask for a better brand ambassador than Ida to facilitate our message to the European audience. Not only is she a rising star with outstanding talent, but she is also an enthusiast who understands our products. 2023 is going to be a great year for Ida Zetterstr\u00f6m racing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She will also run a Cannonball-style race at Mantorp Park and several exhibition events throughout the year.

Ida has been vocal about her dreams of racing in the American NHRA series in the future. \u201cI already have my license, which is ready for NHRA racing, and I\u2019m actively striving towards my goal of racing in the USA. I can\u2019t give you any news of me racing there yet but know that it is something I\u2019m working on for the future. Top Fuel and drag racing get my heart racing, and I\u2019m here to stay.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
