Roush Fenway Racing announced today that Carl Edwards will be driving the No. 99 Lumber Liquidators/Red Sox Ford Fusion this Sunday in the Lenox Industrial Tools 300 at New Hampshire International Raceway in Loudon, NH. Lumber Liquidators and Gillette will be the primary sponsors this weekend of the No. 99 this weekend.
Edwards is very happy about the deal.
“I’m really proud to have Lumber Liquidators and Gillette on board as the primary sponsors of the No. 99 Ford at Loudon. Both organizations have deep ties in the New England area and it is truly an honor to represent a team like the Boston Red Sox that has so much respect and history. There is an obvious cross-over between the NASCAR fan base and Red Sox fans and I’m excited that Lumber Liquidators and Gillette have chosen me to represent them at New Hampshire International Speedway.”
Owner Jack Roush shared Edwards’ sentiments.
“We are excited to have Lumber Liquidators and Gillette sponsoring the No. 99 Ford Fusion and using the opportunity to promote their affiliation with the Boston Red Sox. It is our intention to be New England’s NASCAR team. We hope Red Sox fans watching the races in Loudon will support us with the same intensity as they do when watching the Red Sox”.
Tomorrow night at the ballpark will Roush Fenway Racing Day at Fenway Park presented by Gillette. There will be a NASCAR theme and exhibits throughout Fenway. All of the Roush Fenway stable of drivers will be honored before the game with the Texas Rangers. Carl Edwards and his car will also be on display outside Remdawg’s before the game as well.
It’s only matter of time before Jim Billy Bob Cooter will be wearing a Red Sox hat.
He should have punked the grounds crew and drove the car into center field and did donuts.
I’d have to think Dave Mellor would have probably shot him if he did that. I like the car though with the baseball trim.
They should have put a NESN bobble desk on it too lol. i’m shocked Double L and Dr Chuck didn’t put info on it on how to join red sox nation.
It’s not out of the realm of possibilty Rem Dawgy Dawg and RunDO will try to get that said on the TNT broadcast. Im sure we will here the play-by-play of President Remy’s spin around Loudon today too.
They didn’t have to take Remy all the way to Loundon they should have just driven the Mass Pike.
