Mooresville, NC (July 22,2019)-Utah based; Pit Viper Sunglasses announced today that they have signed sponsorship of Vinnie Miller in the No. 78 BJ McLeod Motorsports (BJMM) car for the remaining 15 NASCAR Xfinity Series (NXS) events.

Pit Viper Sunglasses sponsored Miller at Talladega Superspeedway and Daytona International Speedway last month, where Miller had his career best NXS finish of 11th. They will be the Primary Sponsor of the No. 78 BJMM car at Iowa Speedway, Bristol Motor Speedway, Dover International Speedway, Las Vegas Motor Speedway; other dates pending. Additionally, Pit Viper will serve as an Associate Sponsor for Miller at all other NXS Series races.

“I must thank Chuck (Mumford) for believing in my full turbo attitude enough to come onboard for the remaining Xfinity Series races,” Vinnie Miller said. “We had such a blast together in Talladega. They fit right in this Skull Racing – BJ McLeod Motorsports team! We’ve gathered quite a following of the sunglasses and stoked the fans can see them on the car every week. Thank you to BJ (McLeod) and my personal team for making this sponsorship happen. Without your belief in me I don’t think we’d be in this position today. I’m going work my hardest on the track, demand respect and authority while having fun with the No. 78 Pit Viper team.”

“We had such a great time with Vinnie and the BJ McLeod Motorsports team in Talladega,” Chuck Mumford, co-founder Pit Viper Sunglasses said. “Vinnie has been a good friend from the start and his attitude for not taking life too seriously, is right up Pit Viper’s alley. We’ve gained a lot of fans with our partnership with Vinnie at Talladega and Daytona in the NASCAR Xfinity series. Plus, BJ’s team fits right in with Pit Viper’s philosophy ‘Put them on and let the world be jealous’. It’s that simple.”

THE HISTORY

Pit Viper was founded on a simple principle – sunglasses that can take a beating. In the spring of 2012, founder Chuck Mumford, was traveling to the Teton Mountains for a ski touring adventure. Sunglasses being a very important part of touring trips, Chuck had his current “high-end sport” sunglasses in tow which quickly broke and left him looking for more. He started developing Pit Vipers in the Spring of 2012 as a rugged product that could be shot, sat on, shoved in pockets, run over, and mostly maintain their sun and wind bucking ability. Through the spring the tests were successful and it was time to give them some attitude. Being an accomplished artist, Chuck began painting the PV’s to match his extreme lifestyle, and they looked good.

Bottom line is that Pit Vipers may look like the most incredible thing in decades, but they are also highly functional sunglasses. They are the optimal blend of style and performance.

It’s important to keep the fun alive, and at Pit Viper we are striving to do our part. If you haven’t figured it out yet, we are very serious about not taking ourselves too seriously. We love our product and what it stands for.
