SEBRING, Fla. (Jan. 19, 2026) – The Alan Jay Automotive Network and Sebring International Raceway have announced a multiyear extension of their long-standing partnership, continuing a relationship that includes multiple activations and naming rights to events and facilities at the legendary facility.
As the Official Car Dealer of Sebring International Raceway and the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring, the Highlands County based company will continue to headline the Alan Jay Automotive Network 120, a two-hour IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge series race held the day before the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring, and present the popular HSR Pistons and Props Presented by the Alan Jay Automotive Network.
The HSR Pistons and Props Presented by the Alan Jay Automotive Network is scheduled for Feb. 12-15, and the Alan Jay Automotive Network 120 is scheduled for March 20.
In addition to racing events, Sebring International Raceway is home to the Alan Jay Paddock, with several roads within the paddock named for the company, most notably “Alan Jay Boulevard,” the primary road used by competitors and spectators alike inside the Alan Jay Paddock.
“Alan Wildstein and the Alan Jay Automotive Network have done as much or more for Sebring International Raceway than any other business partner over the years,” said Matt Muha, Sebring International Raceway president and general manager. “Alan and his companies are undoubtedly the most philanthropic and community minded groups in our area, and that support and generosity extend to the raceway, which is Highlands County’s single-largest tourist destination. Extending a mutually beneficial relationship with one of the region’s leading companies is a tremendous benefit to the raceway as well as our competitors and spectators.
The formal relationship between Sebring International Raceway and Alan Jay Automotive Network began in 2016. Since that time, the company’s support, including trucks and other equipment, helped create Sebring’s Alan Jay Safety Team, which is a critical component to the on-track safety, recovery and clean-up operation at Sebring and other IMSA and NASCAR events in the southeast. Additionally, the dealer network has sponsored music concerts, heavily supported and promoted Seven Sebring Raceway Hotel, entertained car enthusiasts and industry leaders at on-track “Alan Jay Day” events each December and has introduced Sebring and its events to captains of industry who previously may have been unaware of the internationally recognized events occurring at the facility.
“Sebring International Raceway is an important part of Highlands County, and home to one of the world’s greatest motorsports events, joining the Rolex 24 At Daytona and the 24 Hours of Le Mans as the triple crown of endurance racing,” said Alan Wildstein, president of the Alan Jay Automotive Network. “Being aligned with the 12-Hour event and the raceway, which is a significant economic driver in our region, is an important part of our responsibility to the community. The raceway draws hundreds of thousands of spectators and competitors to our community every year, and our partnership is both good for our business and for our local economy.”
“Appropriately, this is the first contract I’ve signed as president and general manager of Sebring International Raceway,” Muha said. Muha assumed duties as president and general manager of the facility on January 1, following the tenure of Wayne Estes, with whom Wildstein created the initial business relationship more than 10 years ago.
Alan Jay Automotive Network is a vast organization of dealerships primarily located in Highlands, Hardee and Hendry counties. Wildstein created the company in 1992 and since that time the company, including its employees, has pledged to be a premier partner in the community.
Annually, the Alan Jay Automotive Network contributes to hundreds of events, organizations, fundraisers and individuals, with particular emphasis on events and organizations helping children of all ages. One of the network’s primary events is “Wheels For A’s,” held annually at Sebring, Clewiston, Wauchula, Avon Park and Lake Placid High Schools. From hundreds of entries – one for each “A” earned by students in their senior year – one student from each school is chosen and given a late-model pre-owned vehicle during their school’s graduation ceremonies. To date, the automotive network has awarded more than 100 free vehicles to local students since the program’s inception.
