RFR Lands Deals For Wallace As Sponsor Hunt Continues

Roush Fenway Racing this morning is announcing two sponsorship deals for the No. 6 NASCAR Xfinity Series Ford, as the search for sponsorship for Bubba Wallace’s ride continues a few months into the '16 season. At Dover Speedway next weekend, Wallace’s No. 6 will sport colors from LoudMouth Exhausts, an exhaust systems company that specializes in working on sports and muscle cars. The deal with LoudMouth is for multiple races. On July 16 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, Wallace’s car will sport colors from AutoLotto, a new mobile app that allows users to play Powerball games digitally. AutoLotto chose to run the scheme at NHMS because it is launching the game in that state this summer. That deal was landed by Fuel Sports Management Group Dir of Business Development Garrett Hess.
