NASCAR has scheduled a news conference Thursday afternoon with Chairman Brian France, Global Marketing Officer Steve Phelps and "guests" in Las Vegas, and industry sources said Monster Energy would be named as the new sponsor.

Sweet, now I have further justification for the massive MONSTER sticker on the back of my truck, other than simply enjoying their energy beverages.

Spending some serious coin on sponsorship. I imagine getting their logo on Tiger's bag did not come cheap either

Just what we need. Stands full of rednecks all hopped up on Energy drinks.



I wonder if they will drop their sponsorship with the AMA now. They have been with them for a while

Miss the good old days when the top 3 series in NASCAR were sponsored by cigarettes, beer and tools.

Now energy drinks, cable and campers.

At least they have campers going for them

That's a good fit. Rednecks and white trash love the Monster brand.
