Kobalt Tools says no to Truck Series sponsorship

4 Comments Published August 8th, 2008 in NASCAR News

KobaltKobalt Tools, the Lowe’s brand that was considered the leader to be the title sponsor of the NASCAR truck series, has withdrawn from the bidding, sources say. Craftsman is in its final season as the title sponsor.

With Kobalt stepping away, the door is open for Craftsman to renew its status as the official tool of NASCAR, which the brand had hoped to retain even though it was not renewing title sponsorship of the series.

    Craftsman is not staying with it, Sears doesn’t have the money.

    It will be O’reilly Auto Parts.

    So does the NASCAR SPrint Cup Series or the NASCAR Nationwide Series. They are still WInston Cup Busch Series and Craftsman Truck Series To Me.
