American Equipment Racing company history timeline

1956

American Racing Equipment was originally founded by Romeo Palamides in 1956 and is currently owned by Wheel Pros.

1966

Arguably the finest racing fuel in the west, ERC trusted ARE to represent their product and using an old 1966 Chevy Pick-up, Armadillo Andy started taking fuel and parts to the local sports car races.

1983

Armadillo Racing Enterprises (ARE) was established in 1983 when the owner Andy Collins plunked down $35 hard earned bucks to become a dealer selling AMSOIL synthetic oil to his friends in the Pacific NW Racing Community.

1986

Arguably the finest racing fuel in the west, ERC trusted ARE to represent their product and using an old 1966 Chevy Pick-up, Armadillo Andy started taking fuel and parts to the local sports car races. It quickly became apparent that there was a real need for a trackside supplier of racing fuel and parts, so in 1986, “Armadillo Andy” as he became known, searched out and located the Engine Research Company (ERC) racing fuel.

2008

Then, in 2008, WheelPros decided to add the pioneer of the aftermarket wheel industry, American Racing Equipment.

2020

As of 2020, Armadillo Racing will again be serving the drag racing community at Pacific Raceways in Kent, WA from the Proshop located behind the grandstands near the burnout area.
