McCallister Precision Marketing (MPM) and Nesbitt Racing Enterprises, Inc (NRE) embraces the opportunity to explain the advertising opportunities that will promote your business and products to millions of people worldwide. Paraphrased; “Billboards on Wheels”. How you ask? Your company’s logo wrapped onto the body of an Auto Racing Car and Transporter.

Auto Racing has become the fastest growing, most popular, and most viewed sport in America. Race fans are considered some of the most loyal fans of any sport. Performance research found that nearly 70% of fans claim that they intentionally buy sponsor’s products over other brands to show their support for a favorite team, driver, or sport. In some cases, individual fans will pay a higher price knowing that the product supports their favorite team. On average, race fans will travel an estimated 100 miles in support of the sport and their favorite driver. With the racing season lasting from February to November, it is the longest season in any professional sport. The list below shows some advantages of advertising through Auto Racing sponsorships.

Auto Racing is the #1 Spectator Sport in America
Fans are consciously sponsor loyal
#2 Sport on Television
9 Month Racing Season (February to November)
Face to face race fan accessibility to Drivers and Teams
Advertising at each event with the race car, driver and race team, and away from the event via the teams transport truck.
Special appearance events away from the race track aimed at specific audiences of the sponsor.
How can Nesbitt Racing promote your product?

Nesbitt Racing will be competing at race tracks throughout the northeast and southeast in the highly competitive USAR ProCup Series. The ProCup series is the premier short track touring series in America. With the average race attendance approaching 10,000 people, and a national television package, the ProCup series offers and outstanding marketing opportunity for your company.

Nesbitt Racing will be available for autograph sessions and car appearances at each event in many different locations.

Each Hooters ProCup race will be televised several times on Speed Channel and will air in 50 states reaching a potential viewing audience of 60 million households. Speed Channel is co-owned by Nascar and Fox Sports and is the leading motorsport enthusiast channel in America.

Our race team will market your product to the millions of race fans in America.

 

Advertising opportunities away from the race tracks:
In addition to the race car advertising at the track, the Nesbitt transporter will also work for you 100% of the time. While traveling down the interstates, resting at hotels, and at the many racetrack venues, this moving billboard will be exposed to thousands of race and non-race fans giving your company diversified exposure it deserves. Each year, the team travels in excess of 40,000 miles to and from the various racing events.
 
Other reasons to partner with the Nesbitt racing team:
Most other teams race in only one series. Nesbitt Racing provides you opportunities for advertising in other series as well. In addition to the ProCup division, NRE will field a development team in the newly created Super Cup division. This division will feature cars very similar to the ProCup cars. The series is comprised of ten national events from Ohio to North Carolina. Sponsorship opportunities are also available for this team.
As a founding entity in this new series, NRE can also provide your company with the opportunity to be the series sponsor for this exciting new touring series.
As you can see, joining the Nesbitt Racing team gives you more coverage, variety, and better return on your investment than any other team available! Your company will have the opportunity for national television exposure throughout the 9 month season, coverage in two distinct stock car touring series, and title sponsor of a tour series.
