His 10th place finish at November's historic 50th anniversary BAJA 1000 pushed him to the title after a successful year of racing with Chicago Pneumatic tools at every stop. "I love their tools," said Burnett about signing up for his third year of sponsorship with Chicago Pneumatic. "I'm really excited to be part of their team." Burnett says he loves Chicago Pneumatic tools because of their reliability and innovation. "It's the best stuff on the market," he says.

He is looking forward to his front-row start at the Mint 400 in March, and recently announced he is building a special vehicle to participate in Ultra4 Racing in 2018. Chicago Pneumatic has sponsored MBMotorsports since 2016, and is proud to continue partnering with Marc Burnett's successful race team.
