NHRA Vet to promote Sportsman Racing Initiatives

The International Hot Rod Association has named Robert Jaramillo DRM/IHRA National Sales Manager. Jaramillo will be based in the new DRM West Coast Office in Laverne, California.

“We are proud to announce the hiring of Robert Jaramillo to head the sales effort of DRM,” said IHRA President Aaron Polburn. “Robert is a 17-year veteran of NHRA’s National Dragster publication and brings a knowledge and customer service ethic that is hard to find in this business. I am not sure Robert has ever had a bad day. He will be a huge asset to DRM and the entire IHRA team.”

“I’m honored and excited to be a part of the IHRA,” Robert said. “I see great potential at IHRA, and a opportunity I just couldn’t pass up. There’s great support here from the DRM staff and everyone at IHRA, Feld Entertainment and Motorsports.  I think the sky is the limit for current and prospective marketing partners and advertisers, and there couldn’t be a better time to capitalize on the value of DRM and IHRA as we grow our mission to superserve sportsman racers and sponsors.

“I would like to thank Aaron Polburn and Pam Marchyshyn for giving me this great opportunity. I believe that things happen for a reason, and believe spending nearly 18 years with the NHRA prepared me for taking this big step to the next level.”
