Whether it’s on the track or on TV, Kenny Wallace has always been a favorite of NASCAR fans. Now his “friends” have chosen to show their support for the Hermanator by sponsoring his No. 28 Chevy in the NASCAR Nationwide Series race on August 30th at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal, Canada. Acting on an idea that was founded and cultivated by the online social-networking community who support and consistently interact with him, Wallace is extending the opportunity to all NASCAR fans to help continue his climb up this year’s championship point standings and participate in one of the most unique fan-driven sponsorship programs in the history of NASCAR.
“We’ve had a great sponsor on the No. 28 Chevy, and we’re looking forward to having them on board for the rest of the year, but because of certain rules they won’t be with us in Canada,” said Wallace. “As a race car driver and a competitor, the team and I want to go and race to the best of our ability and compete for the win.”
For $20 (USD) per name, fans will have the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to become a sponsor of Wallace and the No. 28 Chevy. This unique fan car will carry a special paint scheme designed by the Hermanator, listing each participating sponsor’s name on the No. 28 Chevy. After the race, an autographed picture of the car will be presented to each sponsor.
“We want everyone to know that this is a completely voluntary program,” said Wallace. “We understand the economy isn’t in the best position right now, but we’ve seen a huge amount of support for this, and after careful consideration, decided to move forward. If the fans want to join in on a great program, we are looking forward to having them on board. Most importantly, I can’t thank the fans enough for the support they’ve already shown us, and I’m excited to see what we can raise and go out there and race.”
Fans will have until July 31st to become a sponsor and can visit KennyWallace.com/SponsorKenny for more information. Participating sponsors and those who are attending the race in Montreal should stay tuned to KennyWallace.com, Kenny’s official fan page on Facebook or Twitter (www.twitter.com/Kenny_Wallace) for special updates.
