Advance Auto Parts To Title Sponsor NASCAR's Clash At Daytona

Daytona Int'l Speedway this morning will announce that Advance Auto Parts has landed the entitlement for the Clash, a season-opening, non-points Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series. The deal is for multiple years, and a source said DIS was asking low- to mid-six figures annually. The 75-lap race, which will be known as the Advance Auto Parts Clash, was most recently known as the Sprint Unlimited. The ISC-owned track in late November announced that the race was reverting to the Clash name, and it had been searching for a title sponsor since.
