in NASCAR sponsorships over the past two years and have made a tremendous
investment in motorsports. We are excited to have Jason, Mike, Kevin,
Michael, and Jennifer on board with us this weekend in sunny
Miami-Homestead. The exposure we expect to get both on track and with TV
coverage should be quite well worth our investment. We are making
significant plans for our 2010 racing programs in the NASCAR series. We
have been watching Jennifer Jo Cobb race for quite some time and we are
very pleased to have her drive for us this weekend. She, as well as the
other drivers, did a great job in the practice portion of the NASCAR series
race. We are confident these drivers will do an outstanding job qualifying
for the race later today. These drivers are truly excited to be out here
at the track today. In addition, Jennifer is one of the most enthusiastic
drivers we have ever seen."
Jennifer Jo Cobb states that, "I am thrilled to be racing with the support
of the MC2 Energy Drink sponsorship and that I am excited about the
prospect of promoting the energy drinks in various markets throughout the
United States."
