KANNAPOLIS, N.C. -- HAAS CNC Racing announced today that it has extended its sponsorship agreement with Hunt Brothers Pizza for the 2008 NASCAR Sprint Cup season. The Nashville, Tenn.-based company will serve as a primary sponsor of the No. 66 and No. 70 Chevrolets in multiple races and will be an associate sponsor on the No. 66 in each of the remaining races.

“We are very excited to have Hunt Brothers Pizza as a continued partner,” said HAAS CNC Racing general manager Joe Custer. “This is a great step ahead for our race team. We’re looking forward to representing Hunt Brothers well, both on and off the track.”

The No. 70 Chevy Impala SS first featured the Hunt Brothers Pizza brand at Talladega in April where the team qualified third.

“NASCAR is a natural fit for Hunt Brothers Pizza,” said company executive Scott Hunt.  “NASCAR fans are known to be the most brand-loyal fans among all of the major sports and we’re proud to have many NASCAR fans in our existing customer base. We look forward to taking our message nationally to the millions of fans across the country
