UPS formally announces sponsorship of Ragan, No 6
Quote selected text Published September 13th, 2008 in NASCAR News
Launching a new era in its relationship with NASCAR, UPS today announced it would join Roush Fenway Racing for the 2009 campaign and rely on driving standout David Ragan to push the colors of “Big Brown” into Victory Lane. Ragan will race the #6 UPS Ford Fusion next season in a significantly revitalized UPS motorsports program. UPS has signed a multi-year deal with Roush Fenway Racing and Ragan.
The agreement represents a return to Ford Motor Co. and an opportunity to establish long-term stability for UPS’s racing program. Ragan and Roush Fenway Racing will be supported by UPS with a variety of new programs, to be fully announced in coming weeks, including an entirely new advertising campaign. The 2009 Sprint Cup Series season will mark the ninth season of primary sponsorship for UPS and the 10th year as the Official Delivery Company of NASCAR.
UPS became the official express delivery company of NASCAR in 2000 and a year later, joined Robert Yates Racing and NASCAR champion Dale Jarrett to campaign the #88 UPS Ford Taurus as a full sponsor. In 2007, UPS followed its driver when Jarrett joined Michael Waltrip Racing to race the Toyota Camry. Earlier this season, Jarrett retired and the #44 UPS Camry is being driven for the remainder of this season by David Reutimann.

Kenneth;
What happened to displaying other news from other racing series?
Like today, Sebastian Vettel scoring the maiden win not only for himself
but for his Toro Rosso team.
In doing so he also became the youngest F1 race winner in history
Undoubtebly a fantastic story…but no mention on the site?
I guess Kenneth’s not displaying news from the Sprint Cup series anymore either!
probably due to drama between users on certain topics
i was wonderin why greg biffles headline wasnt posted when johnson was posted soon after he won at richmond
Yea.
Hey I’ll take a job as a writer for $0 Kenneth

I agree that race this weekend was insane from qualifying, when KIMI and Hamilton didnt even make it to P3 and Heiki coudnt do better the Vettel. What a show Vettel put on, although Hamilton did amazing, the way he worked up through the field, that was amazing eventhough I dont like Hamilton, he drove hiss butt of and that was amazing. Congrats to vettel that was amazing it was nice to see someone other then Meredes and ferrari win. By the way you all should check out racemyspace.com it has forums and chats so everyone can talk.
Yea I mean I would have LOVED if Hamilton would have selected Intermediates for the last stint instead of full wets… he would have been right on Vettel I reckon and would have made a heck of a race to the end
