will be the primary sponsor for Carl Edwards’ No. 60 Roush Fenway Racing
Ford Fusion at the NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Kentucky Speedway on
June 12, 2010, and is asking fans to determine Edwards’ paint scheme.
Voting runs from May 5 to May 11, and fans will be able to choose
between three designs by visiting the NASCAR section of FanHouse.com
http://motorsports.fanhouse.com/.
“I’ve been fortunate to drive some great looking race cars, and it’s
always good to hear from our fans on which paint schemes they like the
best,” said Edwards. “Now they’re going to get to decide up front
through FanHouse, and that’s pretty cool. We’ve got the greatest fans in
the world, and I’m looking forward to see which one we end up racing and
trying to get to victory lane.”
Edwards, the 2007 NASCAR Nationwide Series champion, has posted
22-career wins in the series since 2005. Currently, he is in the midst
of competing for his second series championship. Edwards has one win and
one pole in five career starts at Kentucky Speedway, and has led 250
laps around the 1.5 mile tri-oval.
“We’re excited about teaming up with Carl and Roush Fenway Racing for
the race and giving our avid FanHouse audience a chance to get
involved," said Kevin Lockland, Vice President and General Manager, AOL
Sports. “FanHouse is an online leader in sports journalism and this
sponsorship is a great opportunity to showcase FanHouse.com's original
motorsports content. We are looking forward to the race and wish Carl
Edwards best of luck on June 12th."
