Braille Battery signs on with BHR as 2016 Sponsor

Bob Henry Racing is proud to announce that Braille Battery has signed on as a new sponsor for the 2016 season for all NHRA and PDRA racing.

The new partnership with Braille all started when Bob Henry went looking for additional ways to reduce weight and boost performance in the BHR Top Dragster for the coming year. Braille provided the perfect solution with a reduction of over 30 lbs by switching to their high-performance Lithium Ion battery. Braille is 100% focused on providing batteries for top racing performance that are light weight, have superb power and recharge faster than any other battery on the market.

Many in drag racing have not heard of Braille even though they have been the lithium battery of choice used exclusively in every car in: Indycar, DTM, SuperGT and Australian V8 Supercars, along with a large majority of the prototypes and GT cars in the IMSA TUDOR sports car series. Braille also supplies batteries to top teams in NASCAR, Formula 1, Open Wheel, Drag Racing, Rally, SCCA, NASA, Drifting,Motorcycle and all levels of competition on both two and four wheels. It only seemed natural for BHR to join the ranks using Braille equipment.

After diving into this further, Bob not only wanted to run the new battery and charging system but also be fully engaged in representing Braille at the drag strip events. Negotiations finally lead to a great sponsorship with Braille Battery for the 2016 season as well as Bob Henry Racing becoming a new Authorized Dealer to better represent Braille at the track and with other driver teams.
