Copart, Inc. (NASDAQ:CPRT), a leading online vehicle remarketer, is
proud to announce that the company will be the entitlement sponsor for
The Milwaukee Mile’s Friday night, June 19 Copart 200 NASCAR Camping
World Truck Series (NCWTS) event.
The Copart 200, as the event will be called, is an extension of Copart’s
involvement in NASCAR, specifically with the Truck Series teams of
Germain Racing with driver Todd Bodine and Kevin Harvick Inc. with
driver Ron Hornaday for a set amount of races this season. This is the
first time Copart will be a NASCAR event entitlement sponsor.
“This is just one more way Copart is showing its commitment to
increasing buyer awareness by reaching out to NASCAR fans and letting
them know about the extensive inventory of vehicles available on
Copart.com,” said Copart President Jay Adair. “This entitlement
sponsorship allows us a variety of opportunities to get the message out
that Copart is the best place to find cars and help make Copart a
household name among car fanatics everywhere.”
Not only is the race named after Copart, but all advertising and print
collateral will also include the Copart name and brand. Each ticket will
feature the “Copart 200” title, and signs advertising Copart will be
displayed throughout the event. Copart representatives will also be
interviewed on MRN radio - the voice of NASCAR, and will be given the
opportunity to wave the green flag to start the race.
Copart recently enhanced its website to make it easier for new buyers to
search and view vehicles offered at Copart.com. Copart already has more
than 100,000 professional buyers in more than 100 countries that
purchase vehicles on Copart.com.
“We’re proud of Copart’s involvement in bringing our loyal fans some of
the best racing in NASCAR, under the lights on Friday night, June 19.
This is a great fit in matching up our extremely loyal NASCAR fans with
Copart’s access to tens of thousands of vehicles for sale every
day on their website, Copart.com,” commented Milwaukee Mile President &
CEO Claude Napier.
