Meanwhile, the lifelong performance enthusiast will promote the Mentor, Ohio organization’s strategic sales plan to spur growth and process improvement across the company.

“Kirk’s extensive relationships and depth of experience in the distribution channel are a welcome addition to the Race Winning Brands team,” said John Oradzansky, vice president of sales for Race Winning Brands. “We look forward to having Kirk be the face of RWB to our automotive customer base in the United States.”

Tenney started in May and has quickly settled into his new role. In his spare time, he enjoys working on his classic Volkswagens with his son, a U.S. Marine. Tenney plays in a popular local rock band and is an avid recreational skier. The Warren, Ohio, resident supports several local cancer charities and is actively involved with the Boy Scouts of America. Both Tenney and his son are Eagle Scouts.

“The top-notch professionalism, from bottom to top, at Race Winning Brands is second to none,” stated Tenney. “I am a humbly blessed man to be working with such a driven group, who are always focused on moving the needle.”
