All Star Series Sprint Car driver and Rookie of the Year contender Brandon Wimmer was selected last week to serve on an elite team of athletes called Team Mannatech. With more than 200 athletes representing countries around the globe, Team Mannatech members have broad-reaching appeal. They have been drawn from the exclusive ranks of sports legends, the everyday athlete and young enthusiasts destined to become superstars. They inspire action and attract passionate wellness champions and are all role models for their sport, committed to helping people of all ages lead a healthy, active lifestyle.

Team Mannatech is an arm of Mannatech, Incorporation, a leading developer and provider of proprietary nutritional supplements, weight management products and skin care solutions.  Athletes around the world rely on Mannatech products because they are formulated from high quality, natural plant sources and are formulated without any substances banned by major worldwide anti-doping agencies.

Wimmer, 23, was introduced to the Mannatech products at the beginning of the 2009 racing season when former motorsports journalist Lori Manes Cutter and her company Winning With Wellness offered Wimmer a sponsorship for the season.  Wimmer came on board and has seen tremendous improvements since taking the supplements.  Wimmer has a tough racing schedule, competing at over 80 races this season and drives the famous Rick Ferkel #0 and Alan Barton #7TW machines.

Wimmer says: “One of the keys for me getting through this hectic season is a new wellness and sports nutrition program I'm using this year.  My sponsor Lori Manes Cutter who owns Winning With Wellness is providing me with scientifically validated dietary supplements from Mannatech.  Since I started on the products a few months ago, I've had more energy on and off the racetrack, I've been sleeping better and feeling rested when I wake.  Lori and I are working together to share my experience with other drivers, crews and fans as everybody can enjoy my same results.”

“Several of the sports nutrition products target improving performance while I'm racing and help me recover faster after a race.  The non-stop travel has been particularly hard on most racers and I feel these products give me an edge and allow me to go to the next race in the best possible shape.  I found too that the day after the race I’m not as sore as I’ve been due to Mannatech products.”

The Team Mannatech “Coach” is Butch Johnson, former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver and kick returner, on of Mannatech’s most prominent spokesmen for personal fitness and the active, healthy lifestyle.  Johnson added Wimmer to the team last week as an opportunity expand their exposure in the auto racing arena and to market to the younger generation of active adults and athletes that Wimmer has a fan base with.  Johnson said, “I’m excited to add Brandon to Team Mannatech and look forward to expanding our involvement in the auto racing market in the US.”

“People today are seeking ways to achieve a better quality of life and take greater control of their health.  That’s where Mannatech and the Team Mannatech program can make a significant difference.  Through its healthy lifestyle resources and unparalleled nutritional products, Mannatech provides the resources you need to be your best physically as well as financially.  Whether you’re training for the Olympics or just want to support wellness and fully enjoy life, Mannatech can help you fulfill your dreams,” Johnson adds.
