BLUE Ox Joins Forces with JRR, Mark Green & Kenny Wallace to Complete Weekend at Iowa Speedway
Jay Robinson Racing and Blue Ox Products jointly announced today that Blue Ox will serve as the primary sponsor on the No. 49 Chevy driven by Mark Green and associate sponsor of the No. 28 JRR entry driven by Kenny Wallace for the NASCAR Nationwide Series US Cellular 250 on July 31st in Newton.
The race on Iowa Speedway will be the first time since Daytona summer 2009 that Blue Ox will be the primary sponsor with Mark Green and the No. 49 Chevy. They will also have deck lid and c-post exposure on the No. 28 Chevy driven by Kenny Wallace for the NNS event. The partnership became a no brainer just a few short weeks ago as Blue Ox became the title sponsor of the USARacing Pro Cup Series event to take place this Friday during the Iowa race weekend.
Blue Ox, of Pender, Neb., is a leading manufacturer of recreational vehicle and towing industry supplies and accessories. With the strong roots, and legacy, of Blue Ox tracing back 84-years to 1926, NASCAR teams and officials have long known the excellence of Blue Ox vehicle accessories … from gooseneck hitches to weight distributing hitches, and … from towbars to track bars!
Adding on to the JRR relationship and partnering up at Iowa Speedway was not a hard decision for Jay Hesse, Blue Ox CEO, “Iowa Speedway is our home track and after signing on as title sponsor for the USARacing Pro Cup Series race we wanted to continue our presence at Iowa Speedway with JRR, Mark and Kenny for the NNS race. We have been together with JRR for two years now and the timing was right to add on to our sponsorship commitments. The decision to partner with Mark Green and the No. 49 Blue Ox Chevy fit right in with our goals and objectives for this market. The track is close to our Pender, NE headquarters, but also with the number of fans, RV’ers, customers and potential customers who attend the race, it was a win win. We are excited to continue our relationship with Jay
