(For Immediate Release) DOVER, DELAWARE: Nascar driver Timmy Hill is pleased to announce that he’s reached an agreement to become the exclusive Nascar outlet for the famous Zagreb Ebnom automobile, in a deal negotiated with longtime dealer Crazy Vaclav’s Place of Automobiles.

“With everything going on the world today, we were pleasantly surprised to ink such a strong sponsorship and supply partnership agreement here in 2020”, Hill said from the Dover International Speedway Media Center. “But I’m proud to say today that ‘Zagreb Ebnom Zlotdik Diev’ is now more than just a slogan—its a way of life.”
The car—renowned for its impressive fuel mileage of 300 hectares on a single tank of kerosine—is reportedly being retrofitted for possible entry into Nascar competition in 2022. This would require sourcing an American engine block, adding a roll cage, removing the signature “housefly hood ornament” and adding a fourth wheel, but optimism reigns.
“We hope to have a Zagreb Ebnom/Crazy Vaclav’s paint scheme on the track next week (at Daytona)”, Hill said. “And we’re also hoping that we can have this resilient car, having survived being designed in a country that no longer exists, on the track soon. I’m brushing up on my Cyrillic alphabet as we speak!”
QUOTES
Timmy Hill: “I’m really impressed with the amount of support the Zagreb Ebnom already has. Why, half of the people in my hometown of Port Tobacco, Maryland have already called me about it—and that’s six people!”
Steve Phelps, Nascar President: “We’re always happy to see new sponsors come into the sport. We’re also happy to see a new manufacturer show interest, if only to irritate people who keep bugging us to bring Dodge back into the fold.”
Crazy Vaclav, car dealer: “Put it in H!”
