Testimonials
                                 “Front Row Motorsports is an interesting study, because they are a team that chose to go Sprint Cup
                                 Series racing, full-time in late 2008, right when the economy started to take a turn for the worse. They
                                 have endured the storm by providing a high level of value to their corporate partners. They are as
                                 committed to winning for their partners off the racetrack, as they are to constantly improving their
                                 performance on it. We’re happy to have them as a part of our sport.”

                                 NASCAR



                                 “Frankly, when I heard about us doing a NASCAR sponsorship, I couldn’t believe we could play at that
                                 level. Fortunately, the guys at Front Row Motorsports showed us how to effectively leverage and utilize
                                 the tools we received from the race team. We have seen a tremendous benefit from our partnership
                                 this year and are looking forward to many years ahead.”

Testimonials

                              “I cannot say enough of the relationship that we have personally with Front Row Motorsports. Front Row
                              Motorsports and their Marketing Team totally exemplifies what true access is to a sport. Whether attending
                              a NASCAR event for the first time or already a fan, Front Row Motorsports will make the customer
                              experience a memorable event. Their marketing team understands the importance of the client experience
                              and ensures attention to detail. The access they provide to NASCAR is second to none. David Ragan and
                              David Gilliland are two of the most personable and dynamic personalities in the sport of NASCAR and are
                              always more than accommodating to our corporate development needs. We’ve partnered with other teams
                              in NASCAR before finding FRM, and I can say the experience we have had with Front Row Motorsports is the
                              best we have ever had.”

                               “Front Row Motorsports has been a great partner for Ford. While they are a lean, nimble and efficient
                               organization, they are making significant progress on the racetrack and have been a welcome member
                               of the Ford Racing family for the past three years. In terms of marketing, we utilize David Ragan and
                               David Gilliland most every weekend at our Ford consumer display and hospitality chalet. They are both
                               very down-to-earth, well-mannered and well-spoken individuals that possess personalities embraced by
                               NASCAR fans. Away from the track, both drivers are active participants in our marketing and branding
                               initiatives and David Ragan has been a great spokesperson for our Ford Driving Skills for Life safety
                               campaign. We are happy to be partnered with FRM.”

Overview of NASCAR Team Assets
 Sweepstakes, Promotions, Traditional and Digital Marketing Rights
 For many companies, NASCAR team sponsorship is the cornerstone of their overall marketing program. Promotions, sweepstakes and targeted communications give team sponsors
 the flexibility to attract both NASCAR fans and non-fans.

 Show Cars and Mobile Marketing Displays
 On display at charity events, retail locations and other points of consumer contact, show cars are immediate attention-getters that draw interest to your brand from NASCAR fans
 and non-fans alike.

 Licensing & Apparel
 NASCAR licensed products provide additional exposure opportunities for team sponsors, placing their brands in categories like die-cast cars, apparel and many others.

 Business-to-Business Opportunities and Pass-Through Rights
 When companies become team sponsors, it opens the door to a number of ROI-generating opportunities. Many companies use their team sponsorship as a way to build relationships
 with customers, suppliers, distributors, retailers and other key partners.

 Team Building & Hospitality
 NASCAR provides a unique way for companies to rally their employees around their sponsorship, creating opportunities for team building and morale-enhancing activities as
 employees watch their team compete and win on the track.

 Local In-Market Programs / Retail Programs
 When a NASCAR event comes to a market, it creates numerous opportunities for team sponsors to reach local consumers and leverage the excitement of the event.

 Driver Appearances, Speaking Engagements and Autograph Sessions
 NASCAR drivers are powerful spokespeople for their team sponsors. Their accessibility to consumers and strong relationships with fans make NASCAR drivers among the most
 effective brand ambassadors in sports.

 Driver Endorsements
 Consumers recognize NASCAR drivers and identify them with their sponsors’ brands. Over their careers, NASCAR drivers deliver massive value in exposure and sales, elevating the
 relationship between their sponsors’ brands and their fans.

 Alternate Paint Schemes
 Primary sponsors are able to easily modify their car’s paint scheme to communicate promotions, sweepstakes, line extensions, new product launches and other initiatives.

  • 14. Overview of NASCAR Team Assets Sweepstakes, Promotions, Traditional and Digital Marketing Rights For many companies, NASCAR team sponsorship is the cornerstone of their overall marketing program. Promotions, sweepstakes and targeted communications give team sponsors the flexibility to attract both NASCAR fans and non-fans. Show Cars and Mobile Marketing Displays On display at charity events, retail locations and other points of consumer contact, show cars are immediate attention-getters that draw interest to your brand from NASCAR fans and non-fans alike. Licensing & Apparel NASCAR licensed products provide additional exposure opportunities for team sponsors, placing their brands in categories like die-cast cars, apparel and many others. Business-to-Business Opportunities and Pass-Through Rights When companies become team sponsors, it opens the door to a number of ROI-generating opportunities. Many companies use their team sponsorship as a way to build relationships with customers, suppliers, distributors, retailers and other key partners. Team Building & Hospitality NASCAR provides a unique way for companies to rally their employees around their sponsorship, creating opportunities for team building and morale-enhancing activities as employees watch their team compete and win on the track. Local In-Market Programs / Retail Programs When a NASCAR event comes to a market, it creates numerous opportunities for team sponsors to reach local consumers and leverage the excitement of the event. Driver Appearances, Speaking Engagements and Autograph Sessions NASCAR drivers are powerful spokespeople for their team sponsors. Their accessibility to consumers and strong relationships with fans make NASCAR drivers among the most effective brand ambassadors in sports. Driver Endorsements Consumers recognize NASCAR drivers and identify them with their sponsors’ brands. Over their careers, NASCAR drivers deliver massive value in exposure and sales, elevating the relationship between their sponsors’ brands and their fans. Alternate Paint Schemes Primary sponsors are able to easily modify their car’s paint scheme to communicate promotions, sweepstakes, line extensions, new product launches and other initiatives.
