Glen Allen's
Zimmzang.com Signs On as New Primary Sponsor of Kenny Wallace #28 Car in
Saturday's NASCAR Nationwide Series Race
GLEN
ALLEN--Zimmzang.com today signed on as the new primary sponsor of Kenny
Wallace’s #28 car at Saturday's NASCAR's Nationwide Series race at Auto Club
Speedway in Fontana, Calif.
The sponsorship
was finalized earlier this afternoon after its initial development began via
Twitter over the weekend, said Zimmzang CEO Steve Burke, former head of Steve
Burke Racing, L.L.C.
Zimmzang, an
innovative printing and advertising company founded by Burke and his father,
Rich, will have its name prominently featured on the #28 car driven by Wallace,
one of NASCAR's most popular and dynamic racers.
ESPN2 will have
a live, flag-to-flag telecast of the 5:30 p.m. EST race, the second event of
the 2010 season.
Team Owner Jay
Robinson, based near Charlotte, N.C., said that he is "very thankful"
that Zimmzang signed on to sponsor this weekend's race, giving the team a
better chance of a good finish.
Wallace
finished 16th at Daytona International Speedway last weekend and the team hopes
to "keep the momentum going" with a strong finish in Fontana that
leads to a successful season, he said.
Danica Patrick, who made her NASCAR
debut in Daytona, will also be in the Fontana race. Wallace's Nationwide Series accomplishments include nine
wins, 10 poles, and nine seasons in the top 10 in driver points. He
has more than 425 Nationwide starts, making him only the second driver with
this distinction. He is the only driver to have won the Nationwide Series
Most Popular Driver Award three times, in 1991, 1994 and 2006.
Steve Burke, a
2009 graduate of Virginia Tech's Pamplin School of Business, said that his
background in racing led to his company's interest in sponsoring the car.
"As a
relatively new company, Zimmzang is looking for opportunities for national
exposure," Burke said. "NASCAR is a great platform for that,
particularly because of the excitement generated by Danica Patrick's entry into
the field. We're thrilled to be affiliated with Kenny Wallace and his team."
