2009 NASCAR Retail Industry Sponsors: Complete List of Races, Drivers, and Teams

Despite the Recession, Retailers Find Advertising Dollars for Big NASCAR Budgets

Because of its huge popularity, NASCAR sponsorship is attractive to advertising sponsors who are eager to gain exposure to a large number of race fans. However, because of its huge popularity, the cost of NASCAR sponsorship is as huge as the sport itself.

This is a complete list of retail industry NASCAR sponsors for the 2009 race season, and the cars and drivers they are hoping will take the checkered flag, and drive the brand into the international spotlight that shines on victory lane.
