Stamford's RPM Raceway Teams with Webster Bank Arena
Bridgeport-based Webster Bank Arena is home of the New York Islanders' AHL affiliate, the Bridgeport Sound Tigers.

From RPM: RPM Raceway, America’s ultimate all-electric indoor go-kart and entertainment destination, today announced its year-long partnership with Webster Bank Arena, located in Bridgeport, Connecticut, home of the New York Islanders’ AHL affiliate, the Bridgeport Sound Tigers. Together, the two destinations will maximize excitement for all ages, from a fast-paced hockey game on the ice to the fastest lap in one of RPM’s karts on its quarter-mile track.
The partnership includes a robust signage package throughout the arena’s footprint, including a spot on the outdoor marquee, commercials on the jumbotron during Sound Tigers home games, presence at kiosks on the concourse and coupons for discounted races available for patrons of all the arena’s events, from heart-racing home games to headbanging concerts. Additionally, for the duration of the Sound Tigers’ season, RPM Raceway is branding the last five minutes of each home as the “Drive to the Finish,” where one lucky section in the arena will win discounted races at the Stamford location if the home team can score a goal before the final regulation buzzer sounds.
“We are very excited to be partnering with Webster Bank Arena, a staple of entertainment and community in Fairfield County,” said Karen Davis-Farage, president and co-owner, RPM Raceway. “Family fun is at the core of both RPM and Webster Bank Arena, making this a truly authentic and meaningful partnership.”
