Spoilercaps are made in the USA by a small independent race fan.

As a kid, my brothers and I would watch my cousins race stock cars on a dirt track in upstate New York.    My cousin Junior (no relation to Dale), with an unlimited supply of parts from my uncle's auto salvage yard, was one of the top drivers at Five Mile Point Speedway. That was my introduction to speed and fast cars. Check out my cousin Don "Junior" Beagell's custom stock car design from 1963. He took a lot of checkered flags.

When I was 16, I bought my first car for $1200.  It was a 1969 Chevelle SS, "hugger orange" with black racing stripes. It had a stock 396 engine with 375HP.  Several street races and many speeding tickets later, I earned the reputation for having the fastest car in my high school.                                  Man, I wish I still had that car.

  Let's skip ahead 30 or so years, when, as a firefighter in northern California, I learned the best way to watch races was to volunteer at the local race track.  As a Pit-Firefighter at Infineon Raceway, I got to see the races from inside the pit stalls.  Among others, I was fortunate enough to work in the pits of such great drivers as Dale Earnhardt Jr., Tony Stewart and Marco Andretti.  My fellow firefighters are still reminded almost weekly of the weekend I spent in Danica Patrick's pit.

    So here I am working at the track one weekend watching thousands of fans walking around with their favorite ball caps and t-shirts on.  In the pits, all the team members were also dressed in team colors.  As one team started working on their car, they pulled a rear wing from a race car and set it on the ground.  That's when it hit me, a rear wing belonged on the back of the caps that race fans wear.

    Many concepts and prototypes later, and working with a great plastics engineer, we finally came up with a wing that looked good, was easy to install, and was lightweight and comfortable to wear.  Thanks Jeff.

    Everyone said make them in China and save money.  I had a few problems with that, first of all, I am not a fan of outsourcing, and secondly, I don't speak plastics or Chinese.  So, I am proud to say Spoilercaps wings are made right here in northern California.  That may cost you a buck or so more, but hey, we're investing in America's future and besides, it's my idea and I have the Patent. 

Thanks for reading, I hope you buy a wing and enjoy it on your favorite cap.  See you at the races...
