Gas Monkey Garage, the global leader in customized cars from Discovery Channel’s hit series Fast N’ Loud, will become the title sponsor of Peter Hickman and FHO Racing at the 2022 Isle of Man TT Races. After becoming one of the official Powersports ambassador for Motul, another partner joins the mind-blowing fast rider Hicky. Headed by innovative entrepreneur Richard Rawlings, Gas Monkey Garage will utilise the platform of the world’s largest road race to spread the Gas Monkey brand across the globe.
Gas Monkey Garage will showcase the iconic 37.73-mile Mountain Course to a whole new audience via their social media platforms which boast a staggering 20+ million followers.The new partnership will see the Gas Monkey Garage logos and brand adorn outright lap record holder Hickman’s BMW M1000RR in the Superbike, Senior and Superstock races at the TT, which makes it’s much anticipated return to the calendar after being absent in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
With five wins and 14 podiums between 2017 and 2019, as well as the outright and Superstock lap records, 34-year-old Hickman – who still holds the fastest Newcomer lap ever around the Mountain Course – will go into the meeting as the undoubted favourite for honours. 
Based in Dallas, Tx, Richard Rawlings has propelled Gas Monkey Garage into the stratosphere and cemented the brand as a household name since its inception in 2004. From two custom cars for Hot Wheels®, numerous world records, becoming one of the world’s top automotive brands, for Richard and Gas Monkey Garage, it’s go big or go home.
Richard Rawlings: “The entire Gas Monkey family and I are ecstatic to be involved in this year’s Isle of Man TT! Getting the chance to be a part of the largest single viewed sporting event and the world’s longest standing time trials is a dream come true. We are honoured to be alongside the legendary FHO Racing, Team BMW, and the Fastest Man on Two Wheels, Peter Hickman, for a race that is surely to go down in the history books. We look forward to seeing Gas Monkey on the podium come June!”
Faye Ho, FHO Racing Team Owner: “After Motul supporting our team in 2021, I’m really happy to announce this new partnership with Gas Monkey Garage ahead of this year’s Isle of Man TT Races. We worked extremely hard as a team in our first year to show our potential and both Peter and the team are excited about taking that to the TT, even more so with the partnership with Richard and the Gas Monkey family. It’s always important to attract new sponsors to the sport and we’re grateful to the support and commitment they’ve shown, and we aim to repay that faith by delivering a strong set of results at this year’s TT.”
Scott Grimsdall, National Marketing and PR Manager for BMW, commented: “I’m delighted to welcome Gas Monkey Garage to the BMW family as a title sponsor for the Isle of Man TT Races. Their global following speaks for itself whilst Richard’s passion for two and four wheels is clear and their sponsorship of Peter on the FHO Racing BMW can only strengthen our bid for success in June.”
