Labonte-Haas Motorsports Adds Barr-Nunn Transportation Associate Sponsorship
Harrisburg, NC, (February 3, 2005) Labonte-Haas Motorsports is pleased to announce Barr-Nunn Transportation of Granger, Iowa, as an associate sponsor on their #44 United States Coast Guard Chevrolets driven by Justin Labonte for 2005. Labonte-Haas Motorsports will run the full 2005 NASCAR Busch Series schedule with Labonte behind the wheel and compete for the series championship. The Barr-Nunn sponsorship includes signage on Labonte's Chevrolet for the entire season starting with the season opening race February 19 at Daytona Beach, FL.
Barr-Nunn Transportation plans to use the program to emphasize their driver-recruiting slogan, "The Difference IS Real." This campaign is designed to create awareness among their current and prospective drivers and owner operators of their top-notch compensation, cost containment programs and dedicated tours to accommodate driver needs for more at home time.
"How could you better communicate our commitment to, "The Difference IS Real," than by associating our company with the Labonte family," said Rene Beacom, President of Barr-Nunn Transportation. "The Labonte name is one of the most respected names in racing; not only because of their racing success, but also due to the classy way they have always conducted themselves both on and off the track."
"Labonte-Haas Motorsports and Barr-Nunn Transportation know what it takes to win. While high performance equipment, a great support team and a lot of hard work and preparation are crucial in racing or trucking, in the end, the driver is the real key to getting the job done right,” continued Rene. “At Barr-Nunn we recognize how important our drivers are. Everyone who doesn't drive is in place to support those who do. We think our association with Justin Labonte and the #44 Coast Guard Chevrolet in the NASCAR Busch Series will help us deliver the message to both our current drivers and those who may be interested in becoming a part of Barr-Nunn Transportation."
"I am pleased to have a company of the caliber of Barr-Nunn Transportation join our team," said Justin Labonte. "This is going to be a good year for us and we can't wait to get started."
