O'Reilly/Schumacher

Make that 6!

See? So many I lost count.

Simpler fix. Napa could sponsor a race and they can park their trailer where they choose. O'Reilly has their name on 4 races.

True. But unlike NAPA, Advance Auto and others who sponsor a team. O'Reilly only does races.

I wouldn't think so.

O'Reily made a commitment to NHRA for 6 weekends. That isn't cheap.
Car sponsors don't commit to next weekend.

Theirs a Cardinal rule in the pits that you keep all possible sponsors hush- hush! NHRA has a history of persuading perspective sponsors to sponsor races, rather than racers!

Key thing is what does O'Reily actualy pay for themselves...???? for years many of their sponsorships in other forms of motorsport have been paid for by companys wanting floor space in their stores...or so the story goes...


Like how McDonalds got into motorsports.. Maxwell House coffe paid for their first Cup team deal in exchange for Micky D's buying MH coffe...(MH was primary on the 22 car owned by Jr Johnson and then swithced to McD's)

My favorite Napa Dealer is Jackson's Auto Supply in Brea, Ca.

Huh, Randy!

Mine too! I drive past a lot of other stores on the way to Brea and have done so for years.
