Custom T’s of DC Racing

Ever wonder how CustomTs Racing originated or how the name came to be? In 1987, Larry Thompson started a tee shirt company, Custom T’s of DC. He built that business mainly screen printing tee shirts, caps, sweatshirts, tote bags, etc for family reunions, school reunions, school athletic departments and you
guessed it… drag racing events.

In addition to printing items for the racing events, the company began selling tee shirts and caps at the races. The shirts portraying the event name, racers and race cars became extremely popular. Larry already loved drag racing but being around it added fuel to the fire…he began brainstorming about promoting the fast
growing sport.

Since the tee shirt business was already popular with the racing fans, the ideal name would be CustomTsRacing. It became a reality in 2001, with the promotion of the first race at the Colonial Beach Dragway in Colonial Beach, VA. It was a huge success,
Custom T’s was hooked and wanted even bigger. For the next few years, successful races were held and the fan base continued to grow and was demanding even more. In 2008, CustomTsRacing went to the next level by promoting their 1st Annual Doorslammer Nationals at Maryland International Raceway in
Budds Creek, MD. The attendance and participation was outstanding.

The Doorslammer Nationals has become an annual event and several additional races have been promoted at Virginia Motorsports Park in Dinwiddie, VA, Capitol Raceway in Crofton, MD and Old Dominion Speedway in Manassas, VA. CustomTsRacing has been featured on ‘Let’s Talk Sports’ with Glenn Harris and on ‘Goss’ Garage’ with Pat Goss; both News Channel 8 TV.

Large corporations and small businesses, as well as individuals have generously supported our endeavors. One of our major quests is to discourage illegal street racing…and we are very adamant about it. Just as important is our desire to continue giving back to the community in the form of support to church and community
youth programs.
