 GODADDY
Web
hosting domain registrar, Go Daddy, has revealed that it
will return to NASCAR for the 2009 season with another sponsorship
deal, featuring Dale Earnhardt Jr., including Brad Keselowski.
The new deal spans both the Sprint Cup and Nationwide Series
in partnership with Hendrick Motorsports and JR Motorsports.
Go Daddy will be the primary sponsor for 20 races in the
2009 Nationwide Series. Back for another season is NASCAR's
most popular driver, Dale Earnhardt Jr., who designed the
No. 5 GoDaddy.com Chevrolets for the 2009 Nationwide Series
season.
Mr. Earnhardt Jr., who also owns JR Motorsports offered,
''I'm happy to be partnered with GoDaddy.com again, and I
appreciate the much larger role they are playing in our organization
this season. I look forward to seeing Brad drive the Go Daddy
car this season in both the Sprint Cup and Nationwide Series.''
Mr. Keselowski, JR Motorsports' second-year driver, was recently
announced the winner of the Nationwide Series Most Popular
Driver Award.
He will pilot the No. 88 GoDaddy.com Chevrolets
in 18 Nationwide Series races. After finishing third in the
point standings in the Nationwide Series, with two wins,
the up-and-coming Keselowski is in a prime position to be
a 2009 championship contender.
Go Daddy will also be the
primary sponsor of the No. 25 GoDaddy.com Chevrolets for
seven races in the Sprint Cup Series with Keselowski behind
the wheel. In addition, Go Daddy will be an associate sponsor
on Mark Martin's No. 5 Chevrolets in the Sprint Cup Series.
Bob Parsons, CEO and Founder of Go Daddy remarked, ''Go Daddy
has an all-star lineup of drivers including NASCAR'™s
Dale Earnhardt Jr. and IndyCar's Danica Patrick. What could
be better than to expand our sponsorship of these powerhouse
racers and return to Sprint Cup competition with Brad Keselowski.''
Mr. Earnhardt Jr. was actually a Go Daddy customer before
signing on as a spokesman and recently visited with Go Daddy
employees. Mr. Earnhardt Jr. added, ''I was fortunate enough
to visit the Go Daddy headquarters in Scottsdale, Arizona,
recently and was extremely impressed with what I saw - not
only in the technology, but also the people. I consider myself
quite knowledgeable when it comes to computers and the Web,
and it's fun to be able to bounce ideas off each other in
making this partnership really click.''
