Advance Auto Parts Named 2022 NASCAR Marketing Achievement Award Recipient

Advance Auto Parts Named 2022 NASCAR Marketing Achievement Award Recipient

Company continues to expand its presence, dedicating resources to grassroots racing

 

Daytona Beach, FL (December 1, 2022) – Advance Auto Parts, the "Official Auto Parts Retailer of NASCAR", will be awarded the 2022 Marketing Achievement Award today at the NASCAR Industry Awards Reception during NASCAR Champion's Week in Nashville.

In their third season as an Official Partner, Advance has demonstrated their commitment to grassroots racing, supporting drivers and tracks in local communities across the United States and Canada. The entitlement partner of the Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series (NAAPWS), Advance most recently partnered with the NASCAR Drive for Diversity Driver Development Combine, developing new storytelling opportunities and helping to livestream the event for the first time in program history.

"Advance Auto Parts is very honored to receive this award," said Jason McDonell, executive vice president of merchandising, marketing and e-commerce at Advance. "Since becoming a partner of NASCAR, our team has been focused on supporting grassroots racing through programs like Advance My Track Challenge and the Drive for Diversity Combine. As the Official Auto Parts Retailer of NASCAR, we look forward to our continued partnership, leading programs that advance local racing while serving as the auto parts provider of choice for race fans."

For a second season, Advance promoted the "Advance My Track Challenge," focusing on local race tracks and communities to raise awareness of and celebrate grassroots racing. Through a consumer voting program, the organization awarded Jennerstown Speedway a $50,000 prize, distributing 6,000 tickets to local Advance stores for free admission to the speedway's celebration event. The program generated more than 220 thousand impressions on NASCAR.com and NASCAR social media channels.

"Since becoming an official partner, Advance Auto Parts has been a big supporter of grassroots racing, raising awareness of local racing communities and providing young drivers with the opportunity to showcase their talent," said Michelle Byron, vice president, partnership marketing at NASCAR. "After the 2022 Advance Auto Parts Drive for Diversity Combine, we're thrilled to see what's next as they continue to find creative ways to grow their presence in the sport."

After introducing a new brand campaign in June with their No. 1 fan Ed Vance, Advance hosted Ed at the Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona International Speedway and captured live content with him throughout the weekend. In a matter of months, Ed quickly began to be recognized at tracks, becoming a staple character among race fans.

Closing out the year, Advance served as the primary sponsor of the NASCAR Drive for Diversity Driver Development Combine, continuing to expand its presence in the sport. Advance was on-site throughout the event, capturing content as drivers prepared for and participated in the combine. Through their sponsorship, the company gave NASCAR the ability to evaluate additional drivers for the combine as the league also selected additional winners compared to previous years.

This is the first time Advance has been awarded the NASCAR Marketing Achievement Award. Previous winners include: Anheuser-Busch, Comcast; Coca-Cola; Fox Sports and NBC Sports; Mars, Incorporated; Mobil 1; and Toyota.

NASCAR's Champion's Week in Nashville will air Saturday, December 3 at 8 p.m. ET on Peacock. For more information, please visit nascar.com/championsweek.

THE LEGACY CONTINUES: GOODYEAR AND NASCAR ANNOUNCE THE CONTINUATION OF A HISTORIC RELATIONSHIP

THE LEGACY CONTINUES: GOODYEAR AND NASCAR ANNOUNCE THE CONTINUATION OF A HISTORIC RELATIONSHIP

 

Nashville, Tenn. (December 1, 2022) – With one of the longest-running relationships in racing history, The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company and NASCAR today announced a new multi-year agreement renewing Goodyear's position as the exclusive tire for NASCAR's top three national series. 

 

The agreement continues Goodyear's designation as the "Official Tire of NASCAR," as well as the title sponsor of the annual Goodyear 400, NASCAR's Official Throwback Weekend Cup Series race at Darlington Raceway.

 

"From our manufacturing plants to offices around the world, racing is ingrained in our culture, and the importance of our relationship with NASCAR is reflected in the quality, performance and engineering we put into every Goodyear Eagle race tire," said Richard J. Kramer, chairman, chief executive officer and president at Goodyear. "Our performance on the racetrack plays an active role in the success of the sport and inspires the development of our consumer tires, fueling our commitment to take performance and innovation to the next level."

 

For nearly 70 years, NASCAR has served as a proving ground for generations of Goodyear Racing tire engineers, innovating, preparing and supplying tires that meet the most grueling and demanding conditions at the track. The unique technology that withstands and performs in race conditions also informs development and differentiates Goodyear's consumer tires.

 

"Goodyear has been a trusted partner to the NASCAR industry since 1954, playing a critical role in our shared pursuit to deliver the best racing in the world," said Steve Phelps, president of NASCAR. "For more than 25 years, Goodyear Eagle tires have been the only component that connects the stock car to the racetrack. Our continued partnership will allow us to push boundaries and innovate our racing product for generations to come." 

 

Goodyear and NASCAR's nearly 70-year relationship is built on shared values of competition and innovation. As the sport evolved, so have Goodyear Eagle race tires, leading to the introduction of new tire technology like the racing slick in 1972, the radial tire in 1989, the multi-zone tread design in 2013 and the development of the 18-inch Goodyear Racing Eagle tire used on NASCAR's Next Gen stock car. Fittingly, Darlington Raceway – one of the Cup Series' oldest active tracks – is also home to the Goodyear 400 and many of Goodyear's milestones in innovation, including the brand's first official NASCAR tire test in 1954.

 

Goodyear produces more than 100,000 tires for NASCAR's top three series every year, and each one is hand-built by Goodyear associates in Akron, Ohio – Goodyear's global headquarters. To learn more about Goodyear Racing, visit www.Goodyear.com/Racing.

While Kinsey's first-ever televised performance marks an exciting career milestone, it will not be her first time gracing the stage at a NASCAR event. The 22-year-old Texas native also performed the National Anthem prior to the NASCAR Cup Series race at Texas Motor Speedway this past May.

 

Fans can tune in to watch the 2022 NASCAR Awards, including Kinsey's performance, when it airs Saturday, Dec. 3 at 8 p.m. ET on Peacock.

EBAY MOTORS TO BE THE PRIMARY SPONSOR OF THE TORONTO MOTORAMA SHOW THROUGH 2024



EBAY MOTORS TO BE THE PRIMARY SPONSOR OF
THE TORONTO MOTORAMA SHOW THROUGH 2024

eBay Motors Motorama Custom Car & Motorsports Expo set for March 10, 11 & 12, 2023

 

TORONTO, ON // NOVEMBER 16, 2022 • The promoters of the Toronto Motorama show are pleased to announce an expanded, multi-year agreement that will see eBay Motors serve as the primary sponsor of Canada's largest indoor auto-enthusiast and racing show through 2024. Effective immediately, the three-day event will be known as the eBay Motors Motorama Custom Car & Motorsports Expo.

At the most recent Motorama show, this past April, eBay Motors came on board as the presenting sponsor. The relationship was a 'perfect fit,' and the show – which returned after a two-year pandemic-induced hiatus – was a great success.

The 8th annual edition of the long-running show – which has existed under several names since 1974 at the same venue – takes place March 10, 11 & 12, 2023 at The International Centre, across from Toronto's Pearson Airport.

"We are thrilled to extend our sponsorship of Motorama – it's a perfect venue to connect with automotive enthusiasts from across Canada and share how eBay Motors can help fuel their passion by delivering trusted parts for every vehicle need," said Ryan Baltjes, Head of Parts and Accessories, eBay Canada.

"Last year, we created buzz with two unique builds, a '34 Ford and '56 Chevy, and heard directly from attendees about how we can continue to support a great buying and selling experience on the marketplace. We look forward to continuing the excitement and conversation in March and throughout the years ahead."

Owners of custom and classic cars – and many in the racing community – view eBay Motors as an invaluable one-stop shop, offering easy access to a vast range of parts inventories at the right prices. The popular and easy-to-navigate site, with the My Garage custom shopping feature, connects buyers with top-rated sellers from across Canada – and globally – to find new, used, hard-to-find and one-of-a-kind parts, all in one place. Buyers also appreciate the confidence of worry-free buying, thanks to the eBay Money Back Guarantee.

Welcoming eBay Motors back, with an expanded profile and capacity, Motorama's David Weber discussed the synergies between the two parties, "We know that our showgoers are passionate about their vehicles and take an active role in maintaining and improving them. Having eBay Motors as our primary sponsor and a high-profile exhibitor is an outstanding 'fit' that will benefit the automotive and racing communities who are the core of Motorama."

In addition to its primary sponsorship role, eBay Motors will also return with a large exhibitor display. It will once again be staffed by knowledgeable representatives, there to educate showgoers about how to effectively use eBay as a trusted destination for all their needs, when buying or selling parts and accessories for their vehicles.

Visitors to the eBay Motors booth will encounter an interactive display featuring vehicles that have been restored using eBay parts. eBay brand ambassadors will also be on hand to advise showgoers how to effectively and safely buy and sell products, using eBay Motors. As well, eBay staff and ambassadors will be giving away eBay Motors swag throughout the show.

"These days, with high inflation and supply chain issues, eBay Motors can be even more helpful saving people money and getting them the parts they need quicker than they otherwise would. And from our perspective, the eBay Motors partnership helps us to continue to grow and promote the show to more automotive and racing enthusiasts."

 

ABOUT THE EBAY MOTORS PRESENTS, MOTORAMA CUSTOM CAR & MOTORSPORTS EXPO: For information about the show, including tickets, sponsorship and exhibitor opportunities, and more, call (416) 962-7223, email info@MotoramaShow.com or visit www.MotoramaShow.com.

Hundreds of entries will process down the 5.5-mile route, including NASCAR's display, showcasing the 75th anniversary and the upcoming Busch Light Clash at the LA Coliseum. The float is titled 'Always Forward' – a nod to the theme of the 2023 parade 'Turning the Corner.'

 

"We're beyond thrilled to be participating in such an incredible spectacle as the Rose Parade," said NASCAR Vice President of Marketing Services Patrick Rogers. "There's truly no better way to enter NASCAR's 75th year than by celebrating at an event that brings people together through immense creativity and color. With a theme that so closely resembles the growth of our sport and organization, I can't wait to see our float come to life in the new year."

 

As per tradition, floats in the Rose Parade are entirely decorated with natural elements such as florals, seeds, fresh leaves, nuts, spices and other herbage. Each float requires tens of thousands of floral and non-floral materials to decorate fully.

 

NASCAR's float design features the renowned entrance of the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum with the Olympic Caldron atop the Peristyle, with speedy stock cars racing around a track surrounded by checkered flags, ribbons, palm trees and more, headed by the diamond logo to signify the start NASCAR's 75th year. The float stands 25 feet tall, from the base to the top of the flame, and 55 feet in length.

 

The Coliseum façade will be decorated with light and dark sesame seeds while the caldron will be coated in Green Tea leaf, with warmly hued carnation petals as the flame. The cars, track, ribbons and checkered flags will be adorned with elements such as red cranberry seed, black seaweed, rice, orange lentils, poppy seeds, blue statice and ground green split pea.

 

The NASCAR 75 diamond logo will be made up of various seeds and decorated with yellow strawflower, red carnation and blue statice, representing those three famous colors in the NASCAR bar mark. All of the float's design elements will sit atop a base of hot pink, orange and red roses with sprinkles of blue florals throughout.

 

Finally, a portion of the float will bring to life philanthropic efforts in California highlighted by a NASCAR-themed license plate in partnership with the California Natural Resources Agency (CNRA), with proceeds benefitting Expo Park, parks in the Fontana, Calif. area and the NASCAR Foundation. More information can be found at www.nascarplates.com.

 

NASCAR will partner with Artistic Entertainment Services (AES), an official float builder and partner of the Tournament of Roses.

 

The annual Rose Parade celebrates 134 years of success with its upcoming celebration on Jan. 2, led by the volunteer-driven, non-profit Pasadena Tournament of Roses Association. In addition to participating in the 2023 parade, NASCAR will also be providing the Tournament's 935 volunteers with a special Busch Light Clash and Auto Club Speedway ticket offer, in recognition of their dedication to America's New Year Celebration®

 

In ringing in 2023, NASCAR enters its diamond year as the organization celebrates 75 years of history and passion for racing. The Rose Parade kickstarts the anniversary festivities which continue with the Busch Light Clash at the LA Coliseum, and on throughout the rest of the year.

 

The Busch Light Clash at the LA Coliseum will be held on Sunday, Feb. 5, 2023, as a part of the destination's "Coliseum Forever" celebration to honor the historic stadium's centennial anniversary and will air live on FOX at 8 p.m. ET.
