2018 in Review: Speedmaster™ Conquers Yet Another Record Breaking Year

Continuing on the unprecedented success of 2017, Speedmaster has established itself as an unstoppable global force in 2018 and shows no signs of slowing down.

At the 2018 SEMA Show, Speedmaster won an unbelievable 4 SEMA Global Media Awards. This makes a total of 13 GMA Awards won in just 9 years, a feat no other company has yet to achieve. Jay Verduzco (Operations Director) states “We are so truly humbled to be honored and associated with SEMA and so many other highly respected automotive companies. Speedmaster is extremely proud of what our team has been able to accomplish this year and it feels to great for our hard work to be recognized.”


 

The Speedmaster Blackbetty™ tribute to the iconic 1933 Ford Roadster was also launched at SEMA last year. The Blackbetty is the second of five planned signature DNA custom car builds planned in the near future. The project was an overwhelming success and the first edition of the car has already been sold to a private owner in Los Angeles, with more orders coming in.

Speedmaster CEO, Jason Kencevski was officially recognized as a finalist for the Gen III Innovator of the Year Award in 2018 as well. This is one of the highest honors any single person can achieve in the automotive technology industry.


 

Speedmaster Partnerships™ continue to grow and show their impact in the racing industry. The Partnership Program from Speedmaster is an exclusive initiative where racers, car builders and innovators are hand selected by our senior management team for sponsorship and industry alliances. Notable successes of this program include Kamikaze Chris and his iconic El Camino build.

Our online retail division has seen incredible growth in 2018, setting new records across the board in both our company retail site and our affiliate marketplaces. The year was capped off with the overwhelming success of our second annual doorbuster sale which was one of Google’s top searched Black Friday sales in the industry.

Reflecting on 2018, our CEO, Jason Kencevski, stated “I am in awe of what Speedmaster has been able to accomplish in only 12 months. Speedmaster is changing the landscape of the automotive industry, one innovation at a time and we owe it all to the immense love and support our customers and fans show us every single day. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. I cannot wait to show you what we have planned in 2019…”
