In case you missed the
official announcement about the new
sponsorship deal between Roush Racing and Kraft Foods, here
it is:
Roush Racing announced that eight Kraft brands have
become associate team sponsors on all five Winston
Cup cars in the Roush stable, as well as one Busch
series car.
Kraft Foods North America Senior Director of Customer
Marketing Services Mark Zurcher said, "Roush Racing
presents a team of true champions in every sense of
the word. Their success on the track provides
tremendous visibility and awareness for our brands,
both on the track and off, and we look forward to a
winning partnership with Roush Racing."
Kraft will launch its racing program in Daytona as the
primary sponsor of Mark Martin's No. 6 Kraft Ford
Taurus in the pre-season Budweiser Shootout on Feb.
10. All eight of the participating Kraft brands will
make their debut -- through signage on the car -- as
Martin kicks off the program.
Race fans will have Roush drivers and Kraft brands to
root for once the official racing starts. Brand logos
will be positioned prominently on the car of each
driver. Mark Martin's No. 6 Ford will include Maxwell
House Coffee as an associate sponsor in the regular
Winston Cup schedule. Jeff Burton's No. 99 Ford
features Velveeta, while Matt Kenseth's No. 17
Taurus features Kraft Singles, Miracle Whip Salad
Dressing and Kraft Mayonnaise as associate sponsors.
Kurt Busch's No. 97 Ford will carry the Tombstone
Pizza brand as an associate sponsor and Greg Biffle's
No. 16 Winston Cup ride and No. 60 Busch Series Ford
highlights the Taco Bell Home Originals brand as an
associate sponsor.
