​No. 36 Ford to Debut New Paint Scheme with Promotion at Pocono
 
MOORESVILLE, N.C. (May 28, 2019) – Matt Tifft is helping NASCAR fans nationwide gear up for summer this weekend at Pocono Raceway. The Front Row Motorsports (FRM) driver will sport a new paint scheme at the Long Pond, Pa. racetrack featuring a discount code for product from primary sponsor Surface Sunscreen. Fans can visit surfacecorp.com and enter the code “Tifft36” to receive 36% off their purchase.
 
Surface Sunscreen is based in Southern California and helps fans of the outdoors to enjoy their favorite activities without worrying about the sun’s damaging effects. From sunscreen to lip balm, they offer a variety of purpose-built products designed with athletes and action sports in mind.
 
“We want everyone to enjoy their time outside without having to think about harmful UV rays or uncomfortable sunburn, especially when they’re at the track,” said Guy Trotter, founder of Surface Sunscreen. “We’re excited to team up with Matt to help give fans some peace of mind this summer while they’re attending a NASCAR race.”
 
In addition to the new paint scheme appearing on track, Tifft will be promoting various giveaways on his social media pages as part of the launch, including tickets to the festivities this weekend at Pocono Raceway.
 
“I’m excited to unveil this new paint scheme and I think it’s going to look really cool on track,” said Tifft. “I’m glad we can give NASCAR fans an opportunity to take advantage of this promo code. Much of our season takes place in the summer months, which means spending lots of time outside in the sun, making Surface’s products a necessity.”
 
The new paint scheme for the No. 36 Surface Sunscreen/Tunity TV Ford will make its debut at Pocono Raceway on Friday, May 31 for practice. The “Pocono 400” Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race will air Sunday, June 2 at 2:00 p.m. ET on FS1.

No. 36 Surface Sunscreen/Tunity Ford Mustang
Started: 26th | Finished: 20th
 
"We fought hard all night in our No. 36 Surface Sunscreen/Tunity Ford and managed to come out of the longest race of the year with our second top-20 of the year. Certainly glad to come home with a good run. We weren't the best at times, but we never gave up and achieved our goal of having a top-20 finish this weekend. I'm honored that we could have SFC Beale's name on our car and could meet his family and friends today. Thank you to all the servicemen and women who have served our country."

No. 36 Driver Unveils Special Paint Scheme as Part of NASCAR's "600 Miles of Remembrance"

MOORESVILLE, N.C. (May 17, 2019) - Matt Tifft's No. 36 Surface Sunscreen/Tunity TV Ford will pay tribute to Carrollton, Virginia native U.S. Army Special Forces Sgt. 1st Class Joshua "Zach" Beale this Memorial Day weekend. SFC Beale was killed on January 22, 2019 in Uruzgan Province, Afghanistan, while conducting combat operations. He was assigned to 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne), Fort Bragg, North Carolina.

SFC Beale had more than seven years of service in the Army. He graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Criminal Justice from Old Dominion University in 2008 and enlisted in the U.S. Army in 2011. He attended Basic Training in Fort Benning, Georgia, where he graduated from the U.S. Army Airborne School. Beale graduated in 2018 from the Special Forces Qualification Course and was subsequently assigned to 3rd SFG (A).
 
Beale was posthumously awarded the Bronze Star Medal, Purple Heart, and the Meritorious Service Medal. He was posthumously promoted to Sgt. 1st Class.
 
Tifft's No. 36 Ford will display Beale's name across the windshield for the "Coca-Cola 600" on May 26. His car will also feature a star-spangled paint scheme in honor of Memorial Day and NASCAR's "600 Miles of Remembrance" tribute, where each car entered in the race will recognize a fallen U.S. soldier.
 
"It's really an honor to represent SFC Beale on my car for the Coca-Cola 600," said Tifft. "Participating in this tribute makes you take a step back to not only appreciate the sacrifices that these people have made for their country, but how fortunate we are to have such brave men and women fighting for our freedom every day."
 
The No. 36 patriotic paint scheme will take to the track on Thursday, May 23 for practice and qualifying. The "Coca-Cola 600" Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race will air Sunday, May 26 at 6:00 p.m. on FOX.

Matt Tifft Joins Niner Nation Unites Campaign

Former 49er Student to Help Raise Awareness for UNC Charlotte Victims
 
MOORESVILLE, N.C. (May 15, 2019) - Matt Tiftt, a former student of the business school at UNC Charlotte, will help raise awareness for the Niner Nation Unites campaign to benefit the victims killed and injured during the recent shooting on the campus. Tifft will race the UNC Charlotte Strong decal on the sides of his No. 36 Surface/Tunity Ford Mustang, but more importantly, will be posting links and reminders on his social media channels encouraging fans across the country to visit and donate to the UNC Charlotte crowd fund page, Niner Nation Unites, that drives monies to the Ellis Reed Parlier and Riley Howell scholarship funds and to those injured in their recovery.

Tifft will race the decal during this weekend's All-Star activities at the Charlotte Motor Speedway as he attempts to make his first Monster Energy NASCAR All-Star event. Tifft felt that the NASCAR All-Star weekend was the perfect platform to ask people to visit the site and make a donation.
 
"I think this weekend, we have a lot of fans tune into NASCAR for our All-Star activities, and since we're just minutes from the UNC Charlotte campus, it's the best time for me to talk about the Niner Nation Unites crowd fund page that gives 100 percent of its proceeds to the victims still recovering and to the scholarship funds of Ellis Reed Parlier and Riley Howell. As a racing community, we can make a real difference."
"It was a sad day for the University, and personally, I'm still feeling for those affected and the campus," added Tifft. "I think we can not only run the Charlotte Strong decal, but the real impact is logging onto the site and making a small donation. I have and will continue to do so."

Tifft encourages fans to visit https://crowdfund.uncc.edu/ to make a contribution, no matter how small. Fans can choose to make a donation to scholarship funds in memory of Parlier and Reed or to the funds for those injured and recovering including Drew Pescaro, Sean DeHart, Rami Al-Ramadhan and Emily Houpt.
Tifft will race in Saturday's Monster Energy Open that is scheduled for 6:00 p.m. ET and to be broadcast live on Fox Sports 1 and the Performance Racing Network.

Tifft Post-Race Report: Kansas

5/13/2019

0 Comments

 
No. 36 OutWest Express Ford Mustang
Started: 26th | Finished: 21st
 
"Our run at Kansas was one that we really, really needed. We performed well in the middle part of the race, which set us up for a good run at the end, putting us close to the lead lap. We were able to take the wave around a couple of times, but ultimately just didn't have enough laps to be able to make our way into the top-20. It was a great effort from our whole team. I feel like we were able to rebound from a difficult situation last week and have the kind of race that we really needed. It was great to have OutWest Express on the car with us and I hope we can have them back again at some point this season. Looking forward to coming home over the next couple of weeks to race in Charlotte."

Tifft Post-Race Report: Dover

5/7/2019

No. 36 Surface Sunscreen/Tunity TV Ford Mustang
Started: 32nd | Finished: 32nd
 
"It definitely wasn’t the weekend we’d hoped for at the Monster Mile. We struggled all through practice and qualifying, and had to serve a pass-through penalty to start the race. The car was really tight throughout the entire race and it felt like we just couldn’t recover from the hole we were in. We tried to use this as a learning opportunity for our No. 36 Surface Sunscreen/Tunity TV Ford and we’ll take as much of those learnings as we can onto Kansas next weekend."

"Dover has always been my favorite track, so I've been looking forward to racing there in a Cup car for a while. When you have a good day at Dover, it's one of the most fun feelings to drive a car there. I think we'll be able to take our learnings from earlier this season at places like Bristol and apply it at the Monster Mile to get some good speed out of our No. 36 Surface Sunscreen/Tunity Ford."
