FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (Boogertown, North Carolina)
In a nod to the sport’s illustrious past, NASCAR’s newest race team 52 Pickup Racing has announced its primary sponsor for 2021: Monday-brand Cigarettes.
“Its truly an honor to associated with such a classic brand as Monday Cigarettes”, Pete Taylor, one of the fifty-two co-owners of the race team, said. “We look forward to having the iconic blue label with the yellow stripe on our cars, fire suits, and team logos for a majority of the 2021 NASCAR Cup season.
“As a small, privately-owned tobacco firm, we have thankfully not been subjected to the draconian ‘Master Settlement’ made by our bigger competitors”, a Monday Cigarettes spokesman said today. “With the sport of auto racing going through such a transformative time, we felt the time was right to enter the world of NASCAR.
“We have a lot in common with stock car racing”, the spokesman continued. “After all, both racing and Monday Cigarettes are associated with being out on the edge, being a bit of a rebel, and both are highly addictive.”
52 Pickup Racing will debut the primary paint scheme of their 2021 car shortly.
