Niagara Falls, ON - For immediate release -

Joe Boniferro and the Smokin’ Joe’s Racing team plan to HEAT up their performance and COOL down the competition in the upcoming 2006 season. They would like to announce that Coleman Heating and Air Conditioning will come on board as a Major Associate sponsor for 2006. With the additional support from Coleman and other valuable sponsors, the Niagara Falls, ON. based team will be able to continue to develop the promising new engine combination they are working on in conjunction with Mopar icon Dave Koffel of Koffel’s Place. With the anticipated performance increase Boniferro fully intends to continue driving the “World’s Quickest Mopar Wedge powered doorslammer” for quite some time yet.

The season will start by debuting the team’s Dodge Avenger with Coleman sponsorship at Performance World Indoor Car Show in Toronto, ON. in March. The racing season will see the team attend the Pro Mod Racers Association events in Ontario, Quebec and NY State. A return to Luskville Dragway, PQ for the Supercharger Nationals is slated for July 1/2 and the team will also attend the two IHRA events in Ontario as well as a few other selected IHRA National events. Regaining his Frantic 4 crown at Norwalk Raceway’s Halloween Classic is also a high priority for the hard working Mopar team. Boniferro commented, “We missed the Classic last year and they had a new winner for the first time in three years, we have to get our title back. As for the deal with Coleman, we couldn’t have completed this marketing agreement without the help of long time sponsor Rick Goosen from Goosen Heating and Air Conditioning, who is a proud supplier of the Coleman line. He is a great asset to this raceteam. For a little team like us to be associated with a quality company like Coleman is a dream come true. We are confident we can do them proud!”

Coleman®: A Name North Americans Trust. Their residential brand is now sold by YORK, a Johnson Controls Company.

Coleman started the company in 1900 and sold lanterns to Kingfisher, OK merchants to pay for his final year of law school. His lanterns' popularity grew rapidly and by 1914, Coleman introduced the first 300 candlepower lantern. The product was credited with lighting up rural America. In 1996 Unitary Products Group of York bought the HVAC company and in 1999 they decided to market their products solely under the Coleman name.
