BitNile’s Founder and Executive Chairman, Milton “Todd” Ault, III, stated, “I have admired Singing Machine for more than a decade. Singing is a basic human action and music has the power to evoke an emotional response within us. Gary and his team have built a company that that is a clear leader in its category. We look forward to supporting his plans to lead Singing Machine for years to come.”

ECR team owner Ed Carpenter is honored to welcome another of Mr. Ault’s companies to his team. “It is great to welcome an additional BitNile-associated company to ECR and the NTT INDYCAR SERIES,” stated Carpenter. He continued, “Based on the success we have seen this season with Earnity, Alzamend Neuro and TurnOnGreen, we know Singing Machine will be another innovate and enthusiastic partner for our team. We hope the fans love what they are bringing to the Music City Grand Prix!”

In addition to placement on the wheel ramps on ECR’s No. 20 and No. 21 Chevrolets, Singing Machine will have two unique activation areas on-site at the Music City Grand Prix and branding around the circuit.
