DMR holds the exclusive licensing rights to NASCAR simulation style racing titles on interactive entertainment platforms through 2020, intends to pursue and develop a variety of high quality, next-generation video and mobile games across a wide variety of platforms. The new equity investors, which include PlayFast Games, LLC, Leo Capital Holdings LLC, and Gaming Nation Inc. (TSXV:FAN), join current DMR investor HC2 Holdings Inc. (NYSE MKT:HCHC).

Game industry veteran and DMR Chief Executive Officer, Tom Dusenberry commented, “The additional capital and the strategic industry expertise represented by our new equity investors represents the next significant step forward for DMR as we work to bring the highest-quality NASCAR video and mobile games to millions of racing fans around the world.”

The consummation of the PlayFast Games, LLC and Leo Capital investments represents the culmination of DMR’s fundraising effort. Charlotte-based PlayFast Games, LLC is a consortium of distinguished and diverse investors led by founder Paul Brooks. Brooks, with over two decades of motorsports industry experience, is the former President of NASCAR Media Group and was Senior Vice President of NASCAR. He will be joining the DMR Board of Directors in conjunction with this investment.
