Snap-on Racing

It’s race season and that means you are more than likely to see pit crews (and sometimes drivers) with a Snap-on tool in their hand as they get their cars and motorcycles ready for the next race. Again in 2009, Snap-on tools will be used by the top crew chiefs and pit crews as they get their teams ready every week in their quest for 2009 season championships. Snap-on will once again be involved with the top series and top drivers this year.

In the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, Snap-on has sponsorship agreements with Richard Childress Racing (Casey Mears, Jeff Burton, Kevin Harvick and Clint Bowyer), Penske Racing (Sam Hornish, Kurt Busch and David Stremme) and DEI/Ganassi Racing (Drivers: Martin Truex Jr., Aric Almirola and Juan Pablo Montoya).

Snap-on is also sponsoring Childress Racing’s Nationwide Series team (Burton, Bowyer, Stephen Leicht and Austin Dillon) as well as Penske driver Justin Allgaier in the Nationwide series.

Again this season, Snap-on will have a major presence at the NHRA tracks as Snap-on will be sponsoring defending Funny Car champion Cruz Pedregon, his brother Tony and their Pedregon Racing team. Snap-on will also sponsor 4 time and defending Pro Stock series champion Jeg Coughlin as well as Cagnazzi Racing teammate Dave Connelly and Pro Stock Motorcycle racer Steve Johnson.

In three other popular race series, IRL, Grand Am and American Le Mans, Snap-on will sponsor Penske drivers in 2009.

Snap-on’s racing sponsorship also ties in very nicely with Snap-on’s “NO COMPROMISE TOUR™” which is traveling the country this year giving the Snap-on Nation an interactive opportunity to see firsthand the newest and most exciting products Snap-on has to offer. The “NO COMPROMISE TOUR™” will be stopping near several race tracks this year so this will be a great opportunity for our drivers to talk with our customers about Snap-on products.
