Race fans will see the first Aaron's Outdoors/Mossy Oak Brand 'Tree
Stand' Camo racecar hit the track at Atlanta Motor Speedway for the Pep
Boys Auto 500 on Sunday, September 6. Michael Waltrip Racing (MWR) No.
00 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Aaron's Dream Machine driver David Reutimann
will be behind the wheel.
"I'm thrilled to be the first to run the Aaron's Outdoors/Mossy Oak
Brand 'Tree Stand' Camo paint scheme," said David Reutimann. "For a
majority of fans, NASCAR racing and the outdoors go hand-in-hand, so
this partnership with Aaron's Outdoors and Mossy Oak Brand is a natural
fit."
"Many of our customers share a love of racing, hunting and the
outdoors," said Mark Rudnick, Vice President of Marketing at Aaron's,
Inc. "The Aaron's Outdoors/Mossy Oak Brand 'Tree Stand' Camo paint
scheme on our Dream Machine is a fun and creative combination of all
three of their favorite pastimes."
A second paint scheme will be featured on the R3 Motorsports No. 23
NASCAR Nationwide Series racecar driven by Ken Butler III in the Dollar
General 300 at Lowe's Motor Speedway on Friday, October 16. The final
one can be seen on the MWR NASCAR Nationwide Series No. 99 driven by
Trevor Bayne at Texas Motor Speedway on Saturday, November 7.
To help promote the paint schemes, Aaron's has also developed a national
register-to-win sweepstakes that will award nine grand prize winners
camouflage replica race helmets, each autographed by the three drivers.
Registration for the sweepstakes can be found at www.shopaarons.com/camocontest
and ends on November 4, 2009. An independent judging organization will
choose three winners the week before each featured race.
