MitiGator commits to 2010 sponsorship of Team MitiGator™ High Priority Offshore Racing

Team MitiGator™ High Priority Offshore Racing is pleased and proud to announce that MitiGator, the primary sponsor of OPA Team MitiGator™ Offshore for the last two years, has signed on to sponsor the MitiGator boat for the 2010 season.

Barbara McKinney, President of Sea Systems Group (SEAS) said “We are happy to be the primary sponsor of Team MitiGator™ High Priority Offshore Racing for 2010.  Our relationship with them continues as we jointly work to develop and evaluate innovative new MitiGator products for the marine industry.  We have high hopes that “Team MitiGator Racing” and www.mitigatorinc.com will evolve into a new business unit that has an impact on all types of motorsports from offshore to off-road and asphalt and dirt.”

MitiGator is an engineered cushioning system designed to protect people from hi-speed, hi-impact assaults and to allow them to continue to perform their jobs or enjoy their leisure time.  The MitiGator uses patented air control technology working with 4,044 surfaces per square foot to dissipate energy before it is transmitted to the body and thus help alleviate problems.

“We are so excited about MitiGator’s continued involvement,” said Warren Miller, owner/driver of the MitiGator™ offshore boat.  “The product is fantastic, and the people at Sea Systems Group that manufactures MitiGator™ are great.  We are very proud to represent them.”

John Gibson Joins Sea Systems Staff

January 12, 2010

John Gibson, driver and co-owner of the USAR Pro Cup Team MitiGator™ Gibson Motorsports #13 Ford Fusion race team has joined Sea Systems Group, Inc. as Marketing and Sales Specialist this month. Sea Systems was a sponsor of the race team in 2009 and has signed on as primary sponsor for the 2010 USAR Pro Cup race season.

John brings special talent to the MitiGator team due to his unique experiences and education. John has been an active racer since he was thirteen years old and has been an USAR Pro Cup driver since 2005. In 2009 John finished 8th in driver points in the USAR season. As part of the sponsorship program John races using a MitiGator lined race seat that he says is “awesome” at preventing back and leg pain after the races. This experience makes him very well qualified to help transition the MitiGator technology to extreme sports padding of all types.

In addition, until recently John was Technical Editor at Circle Track Magazine and wrote several technical papers for the magazine each month and was responsible for daily postings on two racing blogs. “This background will serve our goals of increasing our web presence using the blogosphere, Twitter, YouTube and other internet tools” says Rick McKinney, VP of SEAS.

“John’s emphasis of study at Southwest Missouri State University was in Entrepreneurship and that is a talent much in demand at SEAS as we grow the company in these turbulent economic times” says Rick.

Look for John’s contributions on our blogs, Twitter, Face Book and more in coming months. You can follow our progress at the following sites and more:

On December 11, 2009, Sea Systems Group was awarded from the Clarksville Chamber of Commerce the Business of the Year Award “demonstrating the epitome of entrepreneurial spirit that creates jobs in communities like our town all across the State”  Rick and Barbara McKinney started the company back in 1995 after tyring to come up with a way to create jobs and opportunities in an area that needed Companies and People like this to continue on with the drive of Small Business owners.

Over the years, they have turned the “Mitigator” into a well engineered product that is heavily used in Military vehicles today in all aspect of combat.  The Mitigator is designed to dissapate a blast thus protecting the troops from death.  In addition, the company is looking at other applications that can use the same technology thus cutting down on the “everyday worker” and eliminate common aches and pains associated with sitting and/or repeated shock in heavy equipment.

You can read the story here and lets all congradulate Rick and Barb for a job well done, and for many more years to come of continuing on with helping Troops in need get home safe and sound to their familes.
